Hey people! Just need some advice about something...i'm at a new school and don't know anybody right now and i'm kinda shy...can anyone give me advice on how to start conversations with people? Especially guys...i just never know what to say, and i really would like to make some new friends...Thanks if you can help...:&
Just relax and enjoy it. You'll find that as long as you don't try to be someone you're not (as far as you know) people will be swarming to make friends with you. If you want to PM me do. I'm in the process of my 7th school change. Blessings Sebbi
Compliment people. You like their shirt? Say, "Hey, great shirt! Where did you get it?" LIke the style of their hair? "Hey that cut looks great on you! How long have you had it that way?" Any open ended question will work. Make a joke. That's always a good ice breaker. Or if someone is reading a book in the library, go up to them and ask them about what they are reading. It all has to do with context. Good luck!
thank you everybody! i went to my school homecoming dance yesterday, and i hung out with a bunch of people i never had before, including some people i had been wanting to talk to for some time now....so just wanted to say thanks!
