i've been experiencing similar things, and i guess my tip is just to be yourself. i know it's very cheesy and everyone says it and i know you probably do it, but if people don't want to be friends with you for being yourself, then they don't deserve your friendship. hope this helps💕😌

talk to the people you sit next to, it works for me every time i change schools !

and it really helps to compliment others a lot on their clothes, hair, art, etc :)

and if you find a common interest you can talk about it then, that works too !

fūck idk sorry

I move a lot so I know the feeling of not knowing. But really just go with people that make you happy. Usually people who share interests with you so you can start convo. Never ever be someone else for that person make sure you are be completely you an nothing less. Then you'll feel true.💞

*sorry for all the spelling errors😅

hang out with people who you actually like. if you don't like someone, don't hang out with them. I know it sounds kinda rude to just ditch them, but😬be yourself, and talk to people around you . maybe talk to people who seem lonely . compliment people, joke around, just be yourself really x

hmm im not the best at advice, but maybe try complimenting someone to start a conversation:) — also, from what I know about you by this app, I can tell that you are a really great person! I hope you find friends as great as you!

I completely and utterly understand, i have a group of friends, but they all pair off (group of 5) and my old bestie moved schools and won't even contact me, so I get you!! The best tip I can give you is to be yourself. you don't need to put in lots of effort for someone, because they right person will like you for who you are! Either that, or come move to Australia and I'll gladly be your friend!! Stay strong, if u need to rant we all can listen! xoxo Hayley 🌻

I understand what you're going through, I've had to move away from my best friend, I've had my best friend move away from me and I've also had to move houses where I know nobody, it's been getting harder for me to make friends and everyday, I feel lonely. I have no friends anymore all of my 'friends' are people my mom forces me to go talk to because she's friends with her mom... I've lost touch with all my friends and have no one to talk to anymore, I only text like one person but she lives on the other side of the world. My only tip would be just do what you're doing and you'll find someone like you, who needs a friend. The right person won't leave you by yourself, the right person stays with you until they HAVE to go. Be nice to people, and they'll be nice to you. I hope this helps in some way or another.😌💞💐

^omg! that's huge

Just wrote a mammoth response obviously imagined at 2AM. Not my best.😂 So I'll revise and post tomorrow.❤️

Until then, lonely is okay. depressed is even okay. it's a person thing. Uncomprehensively universal and unknowably personal. and I'm sorry about the other issues as well, and you are way more than okay.

Smile. A smile changes everything. The way people look at you, the way they talk to you. I'm not sure I'm a good source for advice but maybe that can help. :) Remember you are an incredible and talented girl. 🏹☺️

Oh, love—I have a hard time making friends too. What I've gathered through the years is that it's great if you could find something that interests that person it'd be great to start a conversation; you could hint at that and then let it all flow, you should be more than fine. In any case, for you, I'm a single comment away absolutely at any time. Hope your Friday's wonderful 😌❤️

as far as striking up conversations I think the comment above mine just about sums it up perfectly💚🌸 I've made all of my closest, most amazing friends through art and music because those are my strongest interests (and between you and me I think music and art people are the best kind of people haha because we all have a weird and creative side which is fun) and it's easier to make friends when you can talk about something that you're both very passionate about, trust me on that.✨also I've been through this same situation before, and it's difficult but not impossible😌🌻 hope you feel better soon!

I would totally follow everyone's advice, it's wonderful. for me, when making NEW friends, I'd just find something that could link us and that we have in common—for example, if you meet someone who's hair is dyed pink and your hair was/is dyed pink, say something like "do you ever have the problem of color washing off?" and you can get into a conversation about that. (sorry random example haha) also, try to do things that center around your hobbies: if you play basketball, join a team or do a camp and try to meet people through that. if you like art, take classes or something like that. if you're really trying to hang on to your current friendships, try to find things you guys can connect on, like art or a sport, and do that together. even try starting/continuing a tradition— maybe you guys spend a certain holiday together, or eat a special thing at the movies. whatever it is, hang on to it. even try explaining how you feel to your friends. but also remember that it's natural for people to grow, and sometimes you grow apart. stay strong. smile more. I'm here for you 💕👋

just be yourself. if they don't like you for you, that's their fault. possibly go places you enjoy (bookstore, music shop, etc.) and you may find others with the same interests. then just talk to them!

also, theatre (idk if you do that) always has amazing people who are kind.

thank you so much!

be confident. say "hi" to people confidently, & smile. talk about both of your interests and what you may have in common, maybe even compliment them about something 😄💞 hope you reach the bottom of that hill &I can start climbing a new one 💕🌻 im here for you if you ever need ! ❤️ xx

^ there's not meant to be an 'I' after the '&' lol Soz 😂 and that end but about the hill was just me trying out some metaphors

but I hope you do ! x

thanks!👏🏼

I don't really know, I'm not good at this stuff. I'll try. 😅 Join some clubs maybe! You'll find people in those that have the same interests as you and I think it's important to have similar interests in a friendship. I don't know if that helps haha. 😂

Whatever happens, I know that you'll find friends that will truly appreciate you. I don't know you that well, but I DO know that you're very creative, humorous, and just a cool bean. 👌 Good luck, girl.

I am not very good at advice, so instead I'll offer support. I am always here ❤️

hey man, dont worry about it. i know you, if even just from this app and you are a pretty amazing & talented person. i would try just finding people who have a common interest and just start having little random conversations. i had an issue with friends a while ago too. my two kinda groups of friends cant friggin stand eachother so i tried to find new people. just compliment people and find common ground or just make gross jokes. and be yourself !! haha cheesy as hëłł but people admire that in a person. do your own thing & dont be so concerned about peoples judgements

Are you feeling a little better? xx 🌻

don't worry, hun. i felt like that for months, and it is truly awful. just think, will you still feel this way in a years time? probably not, because things do get better. just take some time off for yourself. healing is important. go outside maybe, be sure to drink enough water each day. watch the sun rise and set as if it's the last time you'll see it. breathe deeply and just enjoy life. what will be, will be, and friends will come along soon. i can assure you that. you are very talented, and i believe in you. you can do this! stay strong.<3

awww i hope you're feeling better🐌
