Finding a way to fit in


Question Posted Sunday June 29 2008, 12:28 pm

I haven't really 'fit in' since the 6th grade when I was a cheerleader and hung out with their crowd.

Ever since then, I've had one or two friends.For the most part I'm just a helping hand when a random person needs it.

I just need a little advice as to finding a group or a few more friends to have a good time with. I'm in several clubs and sports teams, but I always seem to be the odd one out.

Hey!

So I take it you're involved in school? Good. The more things you are involved in the more friends you might meet. I'm not saying cram all your free time into school clubs and sports, because that gets really frustrating. Try joining some clubs. I'm not sure what your school has but things like (I had things such as...) runners club, chess club, fishing club, etc. If you join in these clubs that you enjoy, you may find someone that enjoys them too. You can definatly make some friends like this. If clubs really aren't your thing, maybe have one of your friends introduce you to someone new. Sit with someone else in the cafeteria. (Or wherever you eat lunch, again im not sure what its like in your school) Just try and be friendly and be yourself.

Hope I could help! Good luckk!

Ive felt that way pretty much my whole life. Ive had only a few good friends i hang out with. And everyone else pretty much ignores me.
But just be yourself try to get to know some of the people in cheerleading and try to hang out with the friends you do have, and get to know there other friends.
Don't worry if your not in a group though. Its better to have 1 or 2 true friends then 20 friends who don't care about you.

Hope it helped

It sounds like your invovled and thats good. Why do you think people don't like you? I've always felt like I don't fit in too. I do stuff also like theater and different clubs. A lot of it for me is being paranoid. I tend to think people are always talking about me and that people dont like me. Its not true but psychologically I feel that way. My advice to you, is to be nice to everyone. Help someone every chance you get. If you say hi to different people in the hallway and your nice more and more people will want to tbe around you. And when you see people want to be around you, you'll realize that you are fitting in. It just may not be the way you thought of at first.

I hope this works, if you have any other questions feel free to message me.
