Well its been 7 weeks at my middle school and I’m really shy. I have friends IN class but between classes I’m all lonely. So what are some tips to help me get friends or in a group?
I’m 12 and I am more conferable around girls. I’m also gay.
WELLL
middle school if you haven’t figured out can be
the make or break point for many young adults.
this is when most of the friend making and bonding occurs which lasts into high school.
not some tips…..
So you have friends "in class" but when classes change there’s no one to talk to correct?
fidn a few people in a couple of your classes that possible go the same direction and you share a commom interests with.
the biggest problem for you is being REALLY SHY.
you gotta break right out of that and meet new people.
obviously you can’t be too shy if you post this question in a possibility of gettin a crappy answer to get embarassed over.
that’s all being shy is.. the fear of gettin embarassed.
you kindof have to just learn to get over it. talk to new people, make new friends, have "hang out" seesions after school.
oh that’s a good way to know people. if some of your class mates live near you. possibly try to get with them after schoola nd introduce you to their friends.
you just gotta get with a certain person to get into a group.
and when your walkin through the halls….
here’s a couple do’s & don’t
DON"T
* walk with your head down (lack of confidence)
* run or walk fast to class (makes a person look like a loser)
* carry a lot of books at once. make recent stops to locker and carry as few items as possible. avoid stuffin backpack. it looks funny. and when you get to hgh school nobody carries a backpack.
DO
* show confidence. approach new people & girls
* take time going to class ( stop at locker, go to water fountain) theres’ no rush.
* greet all your "buds" in the hallway at they walk by. but dont’ do it to everyoe cause then people will notice and it’s weird. just close friends
* also dress is important to be quite honest. idk how old you are exactly… but like don’t come to school with black finger nail polish stuff liek that. it looks weird. ya know dress normal with jeans & shirt.
hope i helped =)

hey man!! Im gay too and when i was in middle school wish was only a year ago it took me until 7th grade to really get into a group. i was basically "friendly" with the entire grade but i mainly had out of school friends. What i did was just be myself. after 6th grade everyone changed and people started changing the way the dressed and they way they did this and the way they did that. If you have friends IN your classes just ask them if they wanna go downtown and grab some food or something. or see a movie or just hang somewhere.

okay to be honest i know this sounds stupid but most of the time if you just go with the flow everything will fall together. I know it isn’t very helpful but that’s how i found all of my friends, they came to me!
Middle school is awesome and i am having the same problem with high school, but i am kind of numb to it now. But i promise you SOON everything will fall into place!
