How can I "fit in" at this new school?

I moved to my moms and that means moving schools. I’ve been going to this new school for 2 weeks and I have no friends. I’m not trying to push things, but it would be a lot easier to be able to talk to a friend that goes here. How can I fit in and make friends?

Answer #1

Talk to everyone! Be friendly, compliment people, and don’t be afraid to talk to anyone. No one is going to push you away if you’re friendly. Just don’t be clingy, and don’t put yourself into a ‘clique’ cause it makes you seem closed off, like you don’t want to meet other people.

Answer #2

join a club or do something you enjoy doing. I loved acting as a freshman, and I ditched my old group of ‘popular’ girls b/c they were btches. Through the school play I met my bff and now she and I are inseparable even though we’ve only been close for a year and a half, we’ve been through heavy sht. Just do something you enjoy and try to seem friendly so people aren’t hesitant in talking to you. Good luck!

Answer #3

Best thing to do would be to be yourself, maybe start a little conversation with people you sit next to in lessons, get to know eachother and soon you will become friends and then you’ll be introduced to other people too.

Hope this helped, I started talking to one girl in my science class when I first started high school and now I’ve become good friends with her and her other friends. ^_^

Answer #4

I know what you mean. my dad always makes us move. I’m still getting used to the school and its the 3rd term! I always feel like everyones just using me.

so, what I do sometimes is this: if I don’t feel comfortable with the group I’m in, I hang with another. you should try it. it usually works. today, I found out that the group that I’m usually with isn’t me, so hung out with people that know the meaning of fun. and I actually had fun! so, it really works!
