How Can I Be More Sociable?
How can I be more sociable? I would like to make tons of new friends
but I don't know how to. Sometimes I just think I'm not pretty enough
for people to like to get to know me...Some pple socialize so easily and
they make new friends everyday, and I don't know how to do that. I don't
want to just make acquaintances, I want to make friends I can talk to
and go out with...but I don't know how to make people accept me. I don't
usually look happy in school, I'm quiet and I like to think within me I
don't like to voice my thoughts but I want to expand my social
circle...How can I make more friends??
ADVISOR REPLIES:
To be more sociable you have to give yourself a positive look. You said
that you don't usually look happy, but if you walked around school with
your head held up people would know that you are confident in yourself.
Try and put a smile on your face. Just go up to a person who you would
like to be friends with and start talking to them. They will admire you
for being so outgoing. Try not to be so shy and speak up about your
thoughts. If you do people will have something about you to respect and
like. You're looks does not have anything to do with how sociable you
are. Just give out a positive attitude and you will get positive
results. Soon enough you will have really close friends who like you
for who you are.-Lisa
First of all, your appearance should have nothing to do with who your friends are. I would have to say that the best remedy to your problem is to get out and meet new people. Join clubs, sports, and other activities out of school so you can have a diverse group of friends. Best of luck.
