help for someone?

the thing is ive noticed a particular guy in school (I know him because he's been in my classes in previous years) but he's always alone...like i see everyone laughing and stuff with friends but i always see that he walks alone, talks to nobody, eats lunch alone..and well he seems so solitary to me...and well i guess i feel kind of sorry for him
should i do anything? what can i do and how can i do it? i mean maybe hes used to being alone but im not sure what i can do...the thing is ive never seen him with anyone and well idk...id like to try to just reach out and give him the option that i could perhaps hang out with him but im not sure...any ideas?

That sounds a lot like i used to be at school. The first thing you need to do is find out whether he actually likes to be solitary or not. But, having the thought of going over to him and asking if he's alright might actually give him a bit of confidence in knowing not everyone is against him. Give him the option and just take it from there. :)

Definitly agreed with Kaius. I find that usually works, i know it worked when i was in my little solitary times.. I still have them, But don't push yourself onto him, just if he doesnt want to talk.. leave him..

To me this sounds like a perfect opportunity to make a friend. Next time you see him approach him and introduce yourself and just have small talk with him. Though if he doesn't want to talk you could just leave him alone, but be persistent let him know that he's not all alone be a friend. Just take it slow with him, but let him know you care.

Well in PE I didn't know anybody but one girl so whenever we had to choose partners for activities we always chose eachother because we both didn't have any other people in our classw we could consider firends. (She's extremely quiet but she has a great sense of humor) Later on we noticed someone else who was always last to get a partner so he would always get the worst partner. After a while we got tired of seeing him like that so we decided to form a threesome group after that. He's very quiet and all but I think he appreciated it because now we're like best buds! Both of the other two are quiet I'm the hyper and excited one so it's very fun for all of us! (Especially when he showed up to school one day on a sugar hype)!

I say you go for it and start talking to him more often. Just be yourself. It could turn out to be a great friendship!

You need to find out if he likes to be alone before you do anything. If he likes to be alone, leave him alone. You don't want to feel overbearing to him, because it will make him feel uncomfortable.

If he would open up and talki to you about why he is like that (down the road) that would be good, because you could help build his confidence about something that is bothering him.
