How To Meet New Friends Online?

How do I meet new friends?

  • I have been a loner all my life. I got about 3 friends that have stuck with me my entire life, and now that I realise that they are total pricks, I want to leave them to do they're own thing, except I am so shy that I dont know How to get more friends, and those three are all I've got. So here's my question, how do I make friends with new people? I am the shyest person I have ever known, and I have tried to make new friends before, but I followed all the bull crap people tell you about being yourself, but I just cant get myself out that far! i always have to pretend Im something! I guess the real question would be, how do I help motivate myself to be a more outgoing person? Either way, please help.

  • Answer:

    Try taking certain classes. Sorta like, if you like art, take an art class. Theres bond to be people in there that have some-what of the same interests of you. But since you're shy take little steps don't seem to eager or desperate. Try to say hi to people maybe in the halls at school. Try doing little stuff like that, and then do bigger steps of socializing with other people. Good luck!

Try a new hobby or activity something that u are interested in...sure to meet like minded peeps there. Try to do something out of your comfort zone. Theres no one and I mean no one who doesnt put on some kind of front personality wise. We are like chameleons blending and adapting to the culture and community around us. The trick is to be in this world but necessarily part of it. Dont judge! Witness and observe the world around you. Anway..dont do this.. I was in college and a girl came up to me and said "I want to make friends..my psychriatrist told me do it" Can we say oops! Repeated exposure to someone increases the probabilty of getting to know them. If its a line or cliche then your not being honest with yourself and them.

Try striking up conversations with random people. This is hard to do if youre shy, but you can start asking for change or directions or s/t and try to lead it in to more. You can also meet people online and arrange to meet in person at an event or something. Going.com has events and people going to events and you can friend them before the event..(i think that ones only for ny tho but there are plenty other sites)

Look for something new to try. Volunteer and just do what you can do to help. Funny thing someone is bound to run into you and then you strike up intersts. Take up a new hobby or sport. Don't think about looking just do what you need to do to participate. Go to the library and read, you will find similar persons and eventually start up a conversation. Take a course in night school. There will be someone the you get friendly with. Don't look, it just happens.

Try talking things that they like
