Question:
I am in my senior year of high school, and I basically lost all my friends..
I have basically none now, cuz 3 of them moved away and the others were just b*tches..
so i dropped those friends...
i am also really quiet so yeah friendships really come and go for me...
also, i am in my senior year so it doesn't really bother me..
but in college, is it easier or harder to make new friends?
when i go to college, i want to really find some true good friends...
also i'm trying to motivate myself to start becoming outgoing when i hit college..
cuz i wanna make lots of good friends in college..
is that possible?
and right now, i don't feel like making any new friends at my high school..
cuz i'll end up not seeing them EVER again after i graduate..
and i really am pissed with high school...
so what should i actually do though?
is it okay to hold back on friendships till i hit college?
Answer:
meeting people is easy, making friends is hard. You have to 'invest' in a person, be patient and try to open yourself up in time. Kinda like a relationship but without the kissing part (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) .
Answer:
to me, you can't live without friends. Without them, you'll be bored as heck at school. just try to socialize with them. You might see them again in college. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)
Answer:
In college, there are so many opportunities to make friends.
Clubs, dorms, dances/events, and classes...
It's pretty much impossible to not come out of college with an armful of good best friends and an army of acquaintances.
It does help greatly to become a little more outgoing in college though.
Trust, college is a great place. You're gonna like it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Oh and it's your preference whether or not be sociable in your last year of high school.
I wouldn't... simply because you won't be ever seeing them again.
Answer:
People will come and go, and so will friends. Don`t worry, you`ll make more new friends =)
Answer:
First and foremost, it all depends on the college and it all depends on you. People have told me that high school was the best time of a person's life. It sure wasn't mine. In college, I met a lot of people to socialize with during school hours, but I never made any friends. To me, a friend is someone I can rely on and someone that I can hang out with beyond the boundaries of mere socializing. To me, there aren't many people that I can trust in order to befriend. They all seem to be unreliable people that never keep their words.
Answer:
it might be easier since college is more outgoing kind of place.. just don't be shy
Answer:
I'm in the same situation. All my good female friends go to diff colleges. Other are b*tches so I dropped them. Now I only have one bestfriend, and she's with her boyfriend for 6yrs+. I'm just really lonely and sad, although I have ton of guy friends. I just really want a bunch of female friends so we can shop and gossip, talks about guys. I'm stuck w/ guy friends who adore me, so I have to listen to them talk about girls, drinking, ect.
Answer:
don't know if the friendships you make in college will really stick out much longer than the ones you build in high school. at least, that's the way i think about it. you're just too busy being serious with your life that you just don't have the heart to hang out as much. you don't really need tons of friends anyway. just keep the ones you have and keep them well.
Answer:
I know how you feel hun ^^
Or actually .... I'm AFRAID to feel how you feel right now =(
I'm scared about what's to come after high school when we're all gone for uni T___T
Sigh**
But the thing is, I think my friendships are at their strongest right now. It's our final year and I think you learn who you're closest too =)
I don't really have advice except you should try and meet new people and maintain those friendships.
But if you feel that no one is worth your time _ I guess you could bare just a few more months ^^''
In my opinion, I would DIE without friends =( But some people are ok with just like classroom friends so I guess it depends on who you are.

Answer:
LOL kinda the same thing happened to me... I dropped most of my friends for various reasons after highschool, although I had a few left... but for a while there I felt really depressed and friend-less. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
I think its harder making long-lasting friends in college. =/ only because you dont' really see them for long and you just go to a class together...and they most likely have their own friends from high school. and plus, high school friends, you see them everyday and ure pretty much forced to befriend them...that's not the same with college. so that's why i think its harder. and i also agree with miegoreng, meeting people is super easy...making friends is kinda hard and awakward. lol
but then again, i found really good friends in college...i duno how i managed that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) you might be lucky too. just introduce yourself to as many people.
Answer:
if you dorm and party then u will meet a lot of friends
if u commute like me you don't really, its hard to make friends in classes, and those ppl have their own friends, its a lot easier to meet people in smaller classes that are social
im a sophomore and i haven't really found ne good friends in college, they come and go every semester
while in highschool i stuck with the people have the same interest me
Answer:
its rare to have still be really close with friends from highschool. i had tons of friends in highschool , but after that everyone breaks off in their own world trying to lead differnet lives and it becomes hard and you start to loose touch and if your lucky, youll keep the very few close by you. so dont stress, once your in college youll have TONS of opportunities to make friends, and usually those are the ones that will last with you a long time.

Answer:
well, this semester's ending soon anyway, so with friends or with no friends, it wont make a difference. everything'll end in two months, so just focus on school for now and dont worry about making friends. grades are more important. dont let it get to you. if you have to release your stress, try talking to your parents. it works for me. or you can talk to a sibling or a close relative (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
im a senior myself, so i dont know anything about college yet, but according to my boyfriend, its hard for him to make friends. well that's just him, but maybe you will be able to make friends. just be more outgoing and talkative. try asking about homework or something and start a friendship from there. works for me everytime (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
Answer:
Well on the plus side, you can concentrate more on your studies.
Having no friends is really boring. I don't know how I'd survive with none.
Be FRIENDLY and search for new friends. Well that's what I'd do if I was in your position anyway.
Answer:
High school was the WORST time of my life
College is sooo much better in terms of social life
People are more matured
Don't worry, you'll find a friend
Answer:
without friends
its hard to go through your last year of highschool
spend higschool wisely
highschool is such a fun time of life.
year 12 should be the best.. though theres alot of exams hsc etc etc
try to make friends, it makes you happy.. try to keep them
Answer:
Don't worry.....true friendships when you meet the person it will just have a natural flow. Not to worry, you'll start college.....and like the thousands of others that are starting it too..........they know no one (JUST LIKE YOU). Everyone starts from scratch at a new school. I was lucky 2 of my friends went to the same university as I did, but heck we were in different programs so we never saw each other on campus cause we were on opposite ends of the campus. You gradually meet ppl in your classes, at parties, events. etc. Trust me you'll meet a whole bunch of new ppl. Think of it as a fresh start.
FRIENDS are important in life. This is something you don't want to miss out on.
Answer:
I lost all of my friends when i went into high school.
In 8th grade, me and my crew was the most popular..
well we were PRETTY POPULAR... but we all broke up
because some had to move away, some went to different
schools.
Now in College, we barely talk. ------ my best friend
and i still talk. we finished HS together. I am happy
we did. she just asked me.. EH.. NVM.
Aniways, you can always make new friends. and if you can't
keep a friend, how can your friends keep you?
