Making Friends


Question Posted Monday March 24 2008, 1:03 am

15/f I really need advice on how to make more friends. I'm kinda shy. I don't know how people make friends and I don't know what to do. I've tried all I could but I'm always nervous about "sounding cool" when i talk to people, I run out of things to say, and it's just very awkward and uncmfotable for me. Everyone's in some kind of clique and i don't fit in anywhere. How can I be better at socializng? How do you make friends?

When you make friends you don't have to be "cool".
Many people just like a real, down to earth person.
You dont wanna come off naive and inconsiderate.
Be yourself and maybe things would change.

You have to find a way to be more sociable.
You don't have to act a totally diffrent person to pick up friends.
JUST BE YOURSELF.

And just talk to people.
Don't act like your bottled up, come out the shy spot and become more open to people.

Say "hey, wats up."
Even "Hi, my name is such and such."


Try to be the person you are.
Trust me you'll find at least someone to talk too.


Hope i helped

Don't try to "sound cool." That means you have to put too much thought into what you say, how you act. That's why it's always way easier to just be yourself.

Talk about what interests you. That's how you figure out if you have something in common with the other person. If you share an interest, you will have plenty to talk about.

Don't try to go up and socialize with a group of people- try to befriend one person out of a group. If you and the other person click, they will introduce you to their friends.
