Dear SHYSTINGRAY,
it must be pretty hard to move to a new school in the middle of a semester – most students have made their friends already. Since you sound a little shy, you should try out for a sport or join a club; it’s a great way to meet new people. Last year, I joined the PCA Drama Club and made a ton of new friends – come by one day and check it out! If drama’s not your thing, PCA has plenty of other cool clubs and organizations. If you’re still having trouble, feel free to introduce yourself! My friends and I eat lunch outside the cafeteria and we’re always looking to meet new people. (I’m the guy with the bushy hair.) Good luck! | | | Dear SHYSTINGRAY,
You’ll have to forgive me -- I’m a really popular guy, so I can’t relate to your problem. But if you’re having trouble making friends, did you ever stop to think that the problem might be you? You might be really annoying or boring or something. Maybe you should just be cooler. If that doesn’t work, you could always try money. I’m obviously pretty booked up, but for the right price… say $50 a week… I’d be willing to let you sit near me at lunch. Y’know, at the next table or something. If people see you hanging out with me, you’re bound to make more friends. | |
