Hi Matthew~ Making friends isn't always easy, and it often depends on the other person but mainly it depends on how you approach it. You mentioned that the other person who you want to be friends with is very shy, now this is something you have to think about. Shy people don't often put themselves out there because they don't have a lot of confidence and self esteem, and I'm sure you're feeling quite nervous about talking to him too. But I think you should introduce yourself to him because you need to make that first step if you want a friendship. Say hi, ask him how his day was. Talk about the weather. Talk about school. Simple everyday things. Conversation will get easier and once that's easier, friendship comes rolling in. And that's if both parties put in the effort, so remember you'll need to spend time together or talk to each other often to be able to have a strong friendship bond. Friendship is also built on trust, so you'll need to be able to rely on each other and be able to help each other in life. That's my breakdown on friendship, I have tons of other things to say about it but I don't want to make this post too long. I suggest getting over that first barrier of introducing yourself to him. You'll be a bit nervous, but it will be worth it~

You have a friend who knows him, you now know the guy is a bit shy. so perhaps he does not have many friends. I would say go easy he may not be used to the way we all make friends and hang out or just chat and joke around.

Maybe see what is interests are and ask about that but for now just saying hi and let him know you share a friend.

Okay! Actually he seems to have his company I don't see him alone at all thats why I think it's tougher to approach him
