How can I make more friends?

Question

I'm almost about to finish high school and I don't really have any actual 'friends', mainly because I switched to my current school from another country this year and I really can't relate to most of the people I learn with. Other than that, I am naturally a very quiet, reserved person so maybe people just think I'm boring. Anyway, I'll be going to University in a matter of months, and I see this as a way to make a fresh start; change my attitude, get some new friends, and maybe even my first girlfriend. My question is, how can I get more friends at college/university level, when I failed to make meaningful bonds in high school? How can I be more appealing to others?

Answer 1

First thing you have to realize is that everybody else is concerned about how to appeal to others, just like you are.  Relax, smile, and speak to people when you have the opportunity.  

I was like you when I was a teenager.  I was miserable, so I can sort of understand how you feel.  I eventually discovered that other people don't bite!!!  You'll be accepted more than you think you will be.  

Good luck.

Talk to people in your class, Im sure there are other people who feel the same way as you. Its a great chance for a fresh start. Look happy and open for people to talk to you, and start a conversation with someone. Dont be shy, act confident and youl feel it too. :)
