How do I make friends at my new school?
This happened to me alot. Because my father is in Army, we have to change our stations every 3–4 year, new schools, new teachers, new friends. I always felt like being in zoo, so many staring eyes.Well what I did on my first day, follows:Sit at front-most seats (2–3 days)It will make you visible to everyone in class.Participate actively in discussionsWhen you join a new class, not only you but everyone is hesitant but curious to know. Ask teacher questions (related to topic) or answer them when asked.Caution! Don't become over effecient.Observe everyone and analyze themPay attention to class mates when they speak, one can learn alot by speech. From there you will know everyone. Each class has same set of nerds, machos, spoiled, strugglers e.t.c. Get to know their norms like: if they shake hand when they meet or simple “hi” is enough.Try to talk, about schedule, weather e.t.cOur favourite subject used to be mimicking our teachers or sports-period or Imran Khan.Show your presenceDuring free-period sit behind groups, understand the nature of group and positions of its people. During recess sit alone but in a place where you are accessible.Become teachers petIt is upto you. If you win teacher’s attention, then no bully can harm you. You can offer teacher to pick his/her bundle of books, participate when teachers ask, bring up good ideas. (No need to become a nerd)Extra-curricular activitiesThese activities are really helpful when you want to increase periphery of friends. It will give you fame but in good manner. Participate in debates, quizzez, sports, music-galas, or even morning assemblies.Remember friends you make here won't be your besties, you have few besties (usually childhood besties). Though your interest might overlap, but interest changes overtime. Respect everyone and in turn you will be respected.Don't get manipulated, understand everyone’s motive.First 1–2 weeks would be a little awkward, stay confident, reflexive, articulate, humorous and you will fit in.Best of luckSource: Google
How can I make new friends in a new school?
Many teens go through moving, so hopefully you find someone that has been through it. To make friends, all you have to do is go up to someone and start a conversation with. For example, talk about a T.V. show you know and like and see if they like it too. Walking into the cafeteria on your first day at a new school can be scary, but don't worry just look for a friendly face and ask them if you can sit down with them, then strike up that conversation. Its ok if your shy and just want to sit by yourself on the first day, someone might want to come sit with you. You can also ask you guidance counselor to help you. My niece befriended some of the other students that had also been new there (your guidance counselor can help you with that). And remember to ALWAYS BE YOUR SELF NO MATTER WHAT!!!, it can get you a BFF faster. Also try reading Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul the Real Deal: School and Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul the Real Deal: Friends. It has stories written by real teenagers that experienced the same thing your going through. Help out other new kids that move to the school your going to, because you'll know what they are going through. I hope that helps. Good Luck!!

New school.. How to make friends.? Helpp.?
Nah, it's not weird to go up and talk to a person as long as you don't do it in a totally weird way! I mean, sure, going up to someone and saying, "Hey what's your favorite color?" would be bizarre. But you can ask what other classes they're taking, or if they understood the homework. Then the next time you see them, you can be a little friendly and then ask how their weekend was. Eventually this leads to more personal conversations, except in those rare cases where you just instantly hit it off with someone. Add them to your Facebook Video Chat Rounds (http://www.rounds.com/facebook-video-chat ) and say what's up when you see them online
I can't make new friends in high-school. What should I do?
You know what, I was the same way.Quick story time!Flashback to my freshman year…I had no friends freshman year. My only “friend” I had in 8th grade had found a new best friend and replaced me. I was all alone.I'm a friendly person, but for some reason, nobody liked me. Everyone was too busy with their own problems to even think of my existence. It's kind of pathetic how invisible I was to everyone.So- then there's a new kid. His name is Nick. He went to a private school nearby and was the only one from his private school to come to my public school.I see him in choir, but don't think much of him. Then, everyone in my choir introduces themselves and talks about what they did all summer…“Uh, hi. My name is Nick. I basically wasted my life watching anime all summer.”Oh! I watch a little anime too! That's cool.So after class, I walk up to him and introduce myself. I ask about what animes he watches and if he has any recommendations.He was friendly, but nothing more.Turns out the only other person he knew at school was my only other friend at school. So, he sat near me at lunch because he didn't know where else to sit.We became friends… and eventually, best friends.Fast forward to junior year…Me and nick have been best friends since freshman year. I don't have much more friends than him however.Anyways, the reason I tried to befriend him was because…He was new, and didn't know any judgements said about me.However, not everyone is as lucky as me. I know not everyone can make friends as quickly as I can (I'm not very shy).But what I recommend you do, is pick someone.Pick someone who you like, and tolerate.Talk to them (maybe stalk their Facebook page a little and find something you have in common).You can also try to strike conversation with people who sit near you in classes.And hey, not everyone in your school is rude and immature. TRUST ME. Everyone at your school has the potential to be a good person… That doesn't mean you're compatible as friends, but it does mean you can get along.Try and find someone you click with, as a friend. Don't be afraid to be outgoing, everyone's too busy thinking about their own problems, then to think how weird you are.
