peaches5 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Hey guys, so I'm in grade 8 and in Surrey that's high school, anyway so I have lots of "good" friends and I'm nice to everyone, but like they aren't the type I would hang out with at lunch and stuff. At lunch I usually just walk around like a loner and I don't just wanna go up and talk to someone because they are usually with a group of other people and I'm just really shy and don't wanna get embarrassed, like if I go up to someone and start walking along with them I get scared they might say like, "Why are you hanging with us" or something like that. In class I'm totally fine idk why, but I just am. Anyway do you guys have any tips to not being socially awkward or something, or do u guys know stuff to do at lunch so I don't seem like a loner? Ty Stop being a vagina and just hang out with them Link to comment

Industrious1 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Highschool is such a tiny part of your life that honestly you should just concentrate on doing well and worry about life afterwards. Once you start making real money all the 'cool' stuff just falls into place anyways (along with women).Don't make the mistake of sacrificing long term goals for short term gains. Seen this happen with lots of old friends from back in the day. Link to comment

Lots of social scientists will argue that this is more important than actual grades, relatively speaking. I know dumb kids in high school who are in far higher social and economic standings than I am now cuz they have more and tighter friends. Be good at sports, or music, or drama. Join a club of something you like. Go from there. Link to comment
BI3KSA- Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Real talk tho, man up and go talk to a group of people you know. Take part in the convo. If you're funny and have a broad knowledge of random crap it should be easy to hold a conversation. Link to comment

There is a lot of things you can really only do in high school or college and then you have to be a real human being. Link to comment
thejazz97 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 You need to do two things: 1. Find friends. Find people that really suit your style. And always make room for the person sitting alone in the corner. 2. Find your thing. Whether it's telling puns or doing dares, find something and make that your dominant feature about yourself. Also, a few wise people told me to never date in high school, but it's up to you. Link to comment

Baer. Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 BOH's 5 keys to getting noticed, in order: Smile a lot. Walk with your chin up, shoulders back, it shows confidence, people feed off confidence. When somebody talks to you, look them in the eye and speak loud enough for them to hear. Nobody likes a mumbler. Being a smartass is not a form of comedy. Form a social life with classmates oustide of school. Link to comment
Baer. Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Also, a few wise people told me to never date in high school, but it's up to you. I'll elaborate. Try not to date anybody from YOUR school. Cause if you get dumped, you don't have to see them everyday. Link to comment
JohnLocke Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Use "Bruh" a lot in your vocabulary. Preferably in a tone that makes if seem like you just heard them say the most ridiculous thing. Link to comment

Tre Mac Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 For starters get off the internet. Sports is the easiest way to make friends if not then play music. If you cant manage any of these three things then you deserve to be a loner. Link to comment
