I started studying economics this year and it is still hard for me to find one out of maybe 2000 students or more that would actually socialize with me. I am not a nerd, nor ugly just a person who finds it hard to make friends suitable for myself. I need your advice on how to cope with it or how to make friends. I need your advice sensei.

Hiyaaaaa,Making friends is not has hard as you think. People think OMG making friends arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (running while screaming!)Here are my tips of making friends:1) ALWAYS SMILE!!!!!!!!!!! :D You have to smile always smile, coz smiling can get you friends and it breaks down awkward barriers2) Approach peopleSaying hello to someone, in your class is ok or even you know asking them a favour or small talk will result in a bigger talk! For example ask people the time, then their name and then you know go from there. Or if you get lose ask directions and then small talk. Even asking someone for a pen is starting point, complimenting people saying I like your shoes, hair, phone 3) Don't be negative!!Thinking that "Oh I'm never gonna get friends, or this person doesn't like me" really doesn't help! Gotta start thinking positive and saying "This person gonna be my friend, I really like this person" just be positive about things and it will really helpOh and if someone doesn't talk to you much or decides to not talk to you, don't take it as a negative just move on and go a new person4) Be confidentHiding from a shell wouldn't get you friends you gotta start being confident about yourself. Anything that makes you confident like perfume, hairgel whatever makes you happy it will boost your confidence. Being positive will help boost confidence so you can approach people 5) Don't expect people to approach youYou gotta make the move, some people won't make the move but you have to so start smiling, feel confident, and approach people. Don't be scared, no one is a monster just you know be yourself!Now grasshopper that's my tips and go and make some friends!Hope my advice helps!Good luck and get in there mate!Lots of love,Ima FreAk!x
