How to make new friends by hross8

"once you finally meet someone who cares about you, misses you and is excited to actually hear about your day, its well worth doing :)"

How I did it: Well its kinda easy how it happened. But i transferred to another school. The old school i was at a lot of people talked shit about me and betrayed me, so it was nice to get a break and be at a new place. Once i went to orientation i met this girl through a friend and we instantly clicked. We were a lot alike, even though i though we would never be. Shes a dancer and really "preppy" i guess you could say. but i soon found out that she a lot of interests that were just like mine.

Lessons & tips: I would say just be yourself, be friendly and dont give up.
Its easy to give up but once you make some friends that miss you after they havent seen you for a weekend or actually want to hang out with you and talk to you, its well worth it.

Resources: Facebook, i guess. But mainly getting out there and getting involved. I joined a lot of groups up here at college and put myself out there.

Thanks

I’m at a new college atm. I’ve been here for around 2 months or so. My confidence isn’t what i t used to be though, and i’ve found it hard to talk to people as the real me. I’m really relate to what you said about friends who actually miss you after not going out on a weekend. Cos i initially made friends, but felt like they were tolerating me rather than wanting me there. Thats when i gave up and just stayed in the study centre doing work during free periods. I’m so miserable now, but i plucked up the courage to go on a trip to paris (anoher one of my goals – visiting paris) to hopefully make some new friends. I’m going to be myself, and i hope they can learn to love me :) Cheers! x
