Hey Amy!
Don't fret. You are not a alone. A lot of people have trouble making friends, including me. I am so with you. All you have to do is be yourself, and don't put yourself down just because you don't have friends. Have a high self-esteem, so then kids will see you are very nice, and also confident. Confidence is very important, because if you don't have a high self esteem, people laugh at you. You will be fine. Good luck! You sound like a nice and down to earth girl, Amy. 8-)
I know!!! When i started highschool, it was so freakishly quiet the first couple of days, and everyone started talking. I was in the same situation too! About 2 weeks into school, i started getting my own pack of friends. It was great!
It's ok! Believe me, you will find people at the right time, give it some chance. Have fun!
Just wait. You'll eventually make friends. Just make sure you seem approachable not desperate for friends or annoying. If you're friendly enough people will want to be around you. Just ask tables if they have an open seat and be part of the conversation without taking it over. Just be confident in yourself and you'll have friends in no time :)
Thats how it is for everyone the first couple of days at a new school give it about a week if your not a shy person you will make friends.
I think just give somepeople timme..
Not all of them are outgoing right when they get back to school. And since your not shy you will be fine, jus give others more timme.
im kinda in the same situation, i dont know anyone but i start school in 2 weeks..and..im gonna be joining alot of clubs..but idk im nervous the last thing i wanna do is sit at lunch by myself
high school sucks!
youll make friends sooner or later, no matter how weird u are.
