-- Posted by The Other Account at 11:50 am on Sep. 29, 2008 How?? Especially if you moved to a new place... It's so hard for me to get friends because I'm too shy or I'm just too depressed to talk to anyone and every time I'm alone I want to just talk to someone, sometimes no. I have these random mood swings constantly...   Friends won't come to me, I know and they aren't prizes to be won. -- Posted by Kitty Kiska at 11:52 am on Sep. 29, 2008 Iv been to 10 diffrent schools and lived in 7 diffrent towns, in 4 diffrent country's.... so you cant imagine how hard it really is, but the younger you are the easier it is really... it will take time but after some time you will find friends that are worth keeping forever!!! No matter how you are, and they way you act or dress or talk or mess around there are always people just like with the same interest, and there are people out there that connect to you most...they become best friends...you just need to figure out what personality in a person best you get along with... -- Posted by babooz at 11:52 am on Sep. 29, 2008 um go and make friends. Its not that hard. Its hard when NOBODY wants to be your friend, thats the hard part. -- Posted by EmmitWinchell at 11:54 am on Sep. 29, 2008 just start a random conversation and go from there even if your shy there are some people who just feel like they are open to you so go ahead and talk to them. -- Posted by The Other Account at 11:55 am on Sep. 29, 2008 Quote: from EmmitWinchell at 11:54 am on Sep. 29, 2008 just start a random conversation and go from there even if your shy there are some people who just feel like they are open to you so go ahead and talk to them. That's the hardest part about me... I can't make conversation last longer because like a couple of minutes I start feeling depressed out of no where and then I just get lonely and shut down and all that which sucks. -- Posted by VirtusInternus at 12:26 am on Sep. 30, 2008 you need to get happy yourself first-find a way to be happy with yourself or you never will be with others. -- Posted by Poker Shark at 1:15 am on Sep. 30, 2008 Act happy, smile, be friendly, make a lot of small talk, be outgoing. Take part in sports and other group things like that where you could meet people your age. I personally have made all my friends through going to parties, clubs and raves. The rave scene is great but of course if you're young it might be hard to break into that.
