<p>well i just read a thread about some guy who doesnt have a lot of friends and i was wondering how easy is making good friends i don't meant like people you only talk to in certain classes but people you can hang with and who will have your back </p>
<p>and another question how big are high school clubs like how many people are usually in one and do they work like a class or what</p>
<p>Well, the best thing is to start talking to people in classes, and sometimes, you’ll find one who you’ll hang out with. It also helps if you’re in a club/team with them. Othertimes, you’ll meet friends through other friends, and that works. High school clubs vary greatly, depending on the school and club. They can vary from 5-10 people to 40-50 people. Also, the structure of any club/team depends on what the club/team is, as well as what the officers decide to do about it. If you’re really interested about certain clubs, as any siblings (although if you’re asking it here you might have already asked them or not have any), or try to see if you can ask any current students, alumni, or teachers. Hope this helps!</p>
<p>It is impossible</p>
<p>If you get involved in clubs or sports, it’s really easy. You become a part of a network of people who are all interested in the same thing.</p>
<p>I definitely recommend talking to people in your classes. I already had a circle of friends coming into high school, but I gained a bunch of new friends from everyday conversations in class. Ask them what middle school they’re from or something…
I sometimes started out conversations complimenting their earrings etc…but this might not work if you’re a guy (unless you’re looking for chicks).</p>
<p>Its really easy to make friends because there are so many different types of people. Talk to people you sit next to in class, in your lab group, etc. If you play a sport, join the team at your school or join band or a club or something. Just find people you have things in common with.</p>
<p>Remember: they need you as much as you need them. :)</p>
<p>It depends on the school’s demographic compared to yours. A flaming homosexual in a conservative Christian HS will likely not make many friends. If your demographic is similar to the people around you, you’ll probably make friends with them (of course, this gets into the debate as to whether or not friendships are based on differences or similarities…).</p>
<p>Do you mean making friends with upperclassmen as a frosh? If so, you just kind of play it low key, be respectful, not annoying. You know, don’t show off about anything, be modest…I don’t know what else to say.</p>
<p>I’m confused as to what you mean though. Do you mean making friends with people in your grade. (Wouldn’t you already know all of them from middle school?)</p>
<p>Join clubs, and talk to people in your classes</p>
<p>Eh… you’ll probably know a good amount of people and have certain groups you can/do hang out with by the end of sophomore year. It’s easiest making friends with the people who you have all the same classes with and are in clubs with you. Just be nice to everyone and you’ll naturally make friends. That’s all I have to say.</p>
<p>Your friends in Middle School will be your friends in High School most likely</p>
<p>Easy to make “friends”. Hard to make “true friends”. Quality over Quantity. I’m a senior and my closest friends are from middle school or are friends with my middle school friends since freshman year. Basically the same social circle over the years. =)</p>
<p>Depends on your personality.</p>
<p>i never had to try, thank god;i’ve kept the same ones over the years, lol. otherwise, it would have been horrible with my shy personality.</p>
<p>I couldnt make new friends in high school, and now im going into senior year. I pretty much ended up hanging out with my friends from jr high that go to another high school. Its pretty much impossible to make new friends without a club or a sport so i highly reccomend joining either one of those if you want to make friends.</p>
<p>Friendships are made on time and effort. Think of it as studying for the SATs (oh god!!). If you want friends, you ain’t going to be chillin’ at home all day long and do nothing. Gotta get out in the world. One easy way to make friends is just volunteer at a local library. Everyone, and I mean it, Everyone has to go to the library many times due to the load of projects high school teachers give. If you volunteer there, chances are that there will be other high school students that you might know. It’s a great way to meet people outside school and chat with them about non-school related stuff. Honestly, chatting about report cards, grades, and comparing body weight gets old.
I have two very great friends who are truly like brothers to me. We run around a creek and explore the city and volunteer in communities. Even though we do not have common interests (I like history, my friend likes dramas, my other friend likes math), we share an unseperable* bond due to the amount of respect I give them and effort I put in maintaining our friendships.</p>
<p>I’m going to agree with Starstuck right now. I did volleyball and a couple of other clubs, so I had a lot of “friends,” but those were mostly the type that you greeted during passing period and hung out with occasionally. The type of friends that you eat lunch with, talk with all the time, etc. are mostly people who came from your middle school or you do an intense program with them and you spend almost all your time with them, anyway. For example, a lot of the theater people are really close friends because of all the time they have spent rehearsing and such. </p>
<p>Basically, for me, making (true) friends hasn’t been the easiest thing, but you could probably label me as a popular nerd, which works perfectly fine. Oh, and as a note, depending on how the upperclassmen are, you may want to make friends with them as well. Some of the upperclassmen at my school are less than friendly to freshman, but a lot of them are actually really nice and don’t care what grade you’re in. I spent a couple of months hanging out with only-freshmen before I met a group of amazing juniors. :)</p>
<p>Pretty freaking easy</p>
<p>its impossible
no one has even done it before</p>
