transfer student..friends

<p>this is one of those sad and desperate questions i guess. I transferred to my current school (about 45 mins away from home) last year and lived off campus but close and made some friends but they all turned out to be jerks who only wanted to stick with their personal dry group.</p>

<p>for other reasons i spent most of my time being depressed and stressed there so it wasnt too much of a concern for me. Now im back home and commute everyday which makes it WAY more stress free but at the same time harder to go to random parties at random times. I only have 2 classes now and it seems to end just as soon as they start and people scurry off to their other class or their friends. I take more advanced classes where people are older and already have their formed group of friends and arent exactly looking to meet new people.</p>

<p>Theres a girl in one of my classes that i like but because of my bad experiences with people being unreliable im scared to take it any further. It really sucks. Im going to put out there im not bad looking, i can be considered attractive and i take care of myself, but more than often i hear people say i have a ***** face when im walking, in fact, the other day some random person asked me "do you always look like you hate the word?" (they were trying to cheer me up) , so i try to keep a non creepy smile on my face as much as possible but regardless i know i probably look like a ***** which im NOT! im very sociable with those who start a conversation with me and im a very nice and accepting girl! but im often wary of starting conversations with people because i dont want to seem annoying or seem weird. </p>

<p>im a very sociable person at heart and i love talking to people! so how do i basically get OVER myself! i knew that if i stopped worrying os much about what people "WOULD" think of me if i talked to them that i basically avoid it at all costs, but i just dont know how to go about meeting people specially since i dont have much excuses to strike up a conversation with people most of the day, i feel like itd be weird to approach someone and randomly start talking to them and btw to be honest joining clubs or sororities isint an option for me, any advice?</p>
