Making friends can be easy if you're a social person. If you're shy, new or don't know where to start you should keep reading for great tips.

Steps

Introduce yourself to people who you don't know, whether one of you are new to the school or not. Be especially welcoming to new people starting school.

• Believe in yourself, smile, have a few laughs together, be a good friend to them. If it doesn't work out, shake it off and keep trying.
  
• Try to strike up a conversation! If you're shy, then add on to other people conversations.
  
• Be as outgoing as you are comfortable with. If not, this will give you some practice on opening up and not being as shy.
  

• Do not grovel and act desperate. This is easily spotted and people will push you away quickly.
  
• Do not spread gossip about them behind their back. Is that a way to treat a soon to be friend?
  
• Do not give up your old friends if they are nice. Try to keep both. If your old friends have a problem with your new friends, try to work it out to the best of your ability.
