just keep your mind set up. and always remember; it's you against the world, and you're gonna win.

Answer 3

It's the past. If the thing that you did was really that horrible, just don't bring it up, and forget about your past. Look towards the future. Just always smile, be nice, and start conversation with people.

Answer 4

i would say that the best thing about moving to a new town is that you have a completely fresh start now. SO, you should take advantage of that and learn from your past experiences. There is no way that you can control how other people are going to treat you, but you can take extra care to surround yourself with the right kind of people and be a good friend to them and hope that they do the same to you.  

Answer 5

Well u can tell them i like ur outfit orr somthin.But just give them complements like i like ur hair,and at the very end of chatting tell them wats ur name.then say wanna be friends tell me if i does YAY!good luck

Answer 6

Try not to be so trusting at first. Form superficial friendships until you determine if you can trust a person to develop a deeper friendship with. I wish you luck at your new school.  

Answer 7

Hey!

well i can really relate to you. I was backstabbed by all my friends INCLUDING my BEST friend and we had met in first grade im currently in the the 10th. Just dont be afraid. I moved 3 years ago to this town im currently in and remember this, NO TOWN is alike. NO ONE is exactly the same. make friends just dont get attached right away, and make sure you get to know the person and the people they hang out with. and of course BE YOU!!

good luck with everything!!

Answer 8

Be confident...not cocky but confident when you walk through the school hallways.  Believe me looking back at high school I wish I had been more of myself than trying to "fit in" because that is the best way to go.

Answer 9

Make a new start. This is a good time for you to make new friends if people in the fast have backstabbed you. Just be friendly, and nice, and don't lie.!!!! This girl that started my school last year lied to me and my friends and it got her nowhere so don't be someone people can't trust. You will meet new friends trust me.  

Answer 10

The only person who can hurt you is you.

Don't go into school with a bad attitude.

Bad attitude won't attract new friends.

Throw yourself out there and just try to make friends.

Live in the future not the past.

Answer 11

OMG!!! that is so sad i can help you to get friends i never used to have a lot of friends but now i have a lot of them.  Ok heres what you do start to meet some new ppl and just talk to ppl and always be yourself. The most important thing is to never let them down otherwise they might not want you to me there friend. just know this you can always pic your friends and only you can decide to leave them if it doesn't seem like you like that kind of person.   How does this sound I will be your friend you can always talk to me if you need help with any kind of issues just email me if you want help i am always willing to help its what i do if you happy then i am happy and everybody deserves to be happy.

Answer 12

Be yourself, Be Nice, Be Helpful, And If you play sports try out for them at your new school, or join some after school activities.
