How to make more friends when everybody thinks you are a loser?

O.k at my school I am a total werido and only have about 20 friends at my school.People tell me I am smart, but I just know general stuff like the parts of the brain and what that part does and 206 bones in the body by heart in alphabetical order, head to toe and what they do. And they think it’s a big deal that I scored above average on the big tests my district takes every year, the OAA’s(Ohio Acheivment Assesments)Everybody knows and can do that! A two year old can do that and better! And it feels like nobody knows me. Why can’t I make friends?! I feel so alone and depressed.

Answer #1

Having friends is important, yes, but too many young people put too much emphasis on it. Many try to evaluate their own “self worth” by how many friends they have. As you get older, your values change in regards to the issue as you mature more.

If you are seriously looking for some “real” friends and not just a popularity contest to see who can get the most friends… then you have to like, and be yourself, first. If you put on an image that you think people will like, or you try to be more than you really are… then, in the end, you are not attracting the people who value honesty and a real friendship. You can project an image to others of who you “really” are… or you can project an image to others of who you “think” they may be attracted to. Both images will attract friends. But , in short, nobody likes to be lied to… and to be yourself will attract true friends who will sincerely like you for who you “are” and not like you for who you “are not”. Let people like you for who you really are. Not everyone in the world will always be your friend, but a true friend will be a person who can accept you for who you are. If you have a tendency to rate your self worth by your friends, then remember the old saying that says something like … “successful is the person in life if when they die there stands one true friend at the funeral”.
