How do I make friends as an introvert?

Being an introvert it takes me a long time to make friends. Ive had the same three friends for the past five years, but lately they all go out and do things with out me. I understand that people decided who they want to hang out with and when. It probably shouldn’t hurt me as much as it does, but even when we sit at lunch together I’m the awkward one on the end who they leave out of the conversation. I don’t want to not have friends (or pretend friends as they seem to be now) to hang out with this summer or during my senior year of high school. I really am afraid of making friends because they always seem to leave in the end. Do you have any tips I could use to try and make new friends or become better friends with the ones I think I have?

Answer #1

just jump into the conversation on your own, show them your interesting to talk to/fun to hang out with. try commenting on peoples pictures on facebook/liking their status’s or something like that, start out small and build on the friendship as time goes by, also don’t seem too pushy or anything when trying to be friends with someone. always be nice too.. i hope this helps you with everything!

Answer #2

Kayla showed a great example. Start out small, because if you all of a sudden start acting like you are best friends, that will drive them away. However, if you wait for them to talk to you, dont count on it because they dont really NEED anymore friends. They could be without. But, you need some. Therefore you have to make the first moved.
