 I moved schools on my senior year. From a school I adored, where my boyfriend graduated, and where I held many dear friends. Of course, I was devastated.
Like sugarcookie said, you could open up to people. You know, if you decide to dwell on another place and move on, you could miss out on great people because you don't want to make friends! If I had decided to be antisocial, I wouldn't have met one of my closest friends who I share so many things with. I wouldn't have met the group of girls from English who I had so much fun times and made the class easier. I wouldn't have met my dear buddy from French who without that class would've been a bore!
I have aspergers, which means social interactions come harder for me. If I did it, why can't you?

i had to move my sophmore year and I was determined to move back and not make any friends. This made my sophmore and junior year suck. My senior year after having an oppertunity to move back fell through I realized that I wasn't going an where until after i graduated and started to open up to people and made a couple good friends.
My advice to you is be open to meeting new people. Some people will be nice and if you aren't open then they will stop trying.
