I just moved from another town, and I miss the friends I had, I only knew them for roughly a year but, they were all so nice, every day people would say hi, walk with me, and talk with me, and invite me over to their house, but now that I'm in this new town, I just, I dont want new friends I want my old ones, everything was perfect until we moved, I dont get it! I'm trying to make friends and barely succeeding, I feel so alone because I know I would be much happier if I didnt move, I hate meeting new people and I HATE this new school! I want to know some opinions on what I should do because I really want to make friends but everyone is being so difficult and they wont talk to me.

I can't say I know how you feel as I've lived in the same house all my life. I do know from the new kids at my school that it's tough to break into circles of friends when they've been friends maybe all their lives. If it was me, I think I'd try to start by making one really good friend. See if you can find someone that has the same interest or talents that you do. Don't try too hard to get noticed or go overboard. You said you were only in your last place about a year and you made really good friends there. Was it the same feeling when you first moved there? If it was, then try to remember what you did there to gain so many good friends.

If ya need to talk, send me a pm. Good luck!

I've never moved but I don't have many friends. Friends are like plants. At first you are new like a seed. Then you start coming out of the ground by meeting one nice person. You grow and grow that friendship and all of a sudden the plant pollinates and you have more friends in your garden.

Start talking to people you sit next to in class. Join after school clubs. If you can make one friend, they will introduce you to their other friends. And they introduce you to their friends. And then you find yet another person you can relate to and they introduce you to their friends and then all of a sudden you have all of these friends in your garden that you have to make the garden bigger. If you move again you start a new garden at your new house. Remember you will always make more friends than you lose.

Talk to everyne, ask them about the school, the town, that kind of stuff. Find someone who looks nice. Talk to them, if they arent nice, find someone else.

ya gotta keep on tryin. talk to people, try and find someone with the same interests and branch out from there. more often than not, if u find one person that like the same things you do, then you'll find more
hope everything works out! good luck!! :D

I've never actually moved school, apart from moving up a school...
But that is similar I suppose because only 2 of my friends from the previous school came with me.
There's not allot you can do, just try and find a few people that don't completely ignore you and get to know them. If they seem like good friendly people then hang around with them any time you can; in class, break, lunch, waiting for the bus? etc. Hopefully is they like you, they'll introduce you into the wider group of friends that they like.
