Making new friends outside my comfort zone?

The last three years I've had most my lessons with my form group--until yr 10--where we've chosen what subjects we wud like to study for gcse. All my close friends were in my form and now most of my lessons are differnt from them, I gottah make new...

friends-lol--ish weird , I wudnt of thought it wud b this difficult--buy I just seem to hold back with other people. I chose to sit by myself in lesson because most people have their friends with them and I just find it doesnt seem right to approach them.
This is silly buh I need help, can anyone help meh how I can make new friends outside my comfort zone-?

aww that sounds really hard.
Um..I think you should just try really hard to go up to someone and like ask them a question and stuff then get chatting.
Seriously it would be really scary leading up to it but after you've done it you'll be so pleased!!
Also you could join like after school clubs or something??

well I have the same problem
you find it hard to talk to people you don't know very well
what I've found to work is not to beat around the bush and question yourself
NO
just swallow your fear and be brave- go and talk to them find something you both like and talk about that then get to know them better and in no time at all your friends
trust me
