If you're talking about the start of a new year, either with a new course or a new school (say if you're a freshman), then remember everyone else is in the same boat as you. They're all new and no one knows anyone else so they're all looking for friends.





If you see someone you think you'd like to talk to, just go up and strike up a conversation. It can be about anything it just has to break the ice and get the ball rolling. Once you're talking start finding out about them and see if they're someone you'd like to hang out with. You only really need to do this with 5 or 6 people because everyone else is going to do the same thing and that 5 can quickly turn into 20.





Just relax and act naturally, you'll be fine. Even someone as socially inept as me was able to find loads of friends when I started university, and I was an American in a London school. I had to put up with many jokes but after a while it all evens out. *Evil grin*
Reply:go to a club and learn martial arts - the physical contact is a great way to break barriers and get talking.


Self defence is a great skill to have and it's fun too.


Pick one that's not too hardcore and focuses on the self defence rather that offence.


Kempo, kendo or jititsu are all good starters and are suitable for all fitness levels
Reply:First off and the biggest thing is to get over being so nervous. You and you alone will have to work on that. And then when you get over being so nervous just walk up and say hi how are you, and such. So you need to first find yourself and get over being so nervous or you have set yourself up for I cannot make it. Get your nerve up and face it and you will make it fine. Get over your nerves and heal yourself. Good Luck and face it you can make it.
Reply:Just be yourself. Dont get to class too early or too late. Arrive when you might have a choice of a seat next to someone who looks like you might like them. Trust your instincts on that one. If you see someone you want to talk to, ask them a question, and be very polite. If you want to get someones attention and cant seem to, drop something close to them. When you pick it up it will give you a chance to talk to them.
