New School, new people

[MacdaddyJr]

I recently moved and it is my senior year. I was practically king of my last highschool and now I'm nothing here in this school. It's a smaller school and every one is really cliquey. Everyone has there own group. Sure people are friendly but once we get by the "where your from?" question they don't talk to me again really. Some talk to me. Jocks rule the school and I'm not a jock. On the first day though, lots of girls came up to me and said if I needed anything that I could ask them. No guys invite me to their table at lunch and I end up sitting at different places randomly. Sure some guys think I'm cool but don't say something like come chill with me at lunch or anything. I have asked but everyone makes me feel unwanted and just out of the social circle.

A couple of times I boldly sat at a table full of girls and they said I was cute and I made friends with them (got a gf though, at another school). But I don't want to sit with girls all the time. Usually I go to the library and chill by myself. I mean what do you say to people when your new. All everyone talks about is other people and gossip. I don't know these people so it's hard to contribute to a conversation. I try though. I dress real nice and I think I'm damn sexy funny and cool. But everyone here is so stuckup it's not even funny. Argghh!! It's so frustrating. Should I keep doing what I'm doing? Ask about parties on the weekends? Ask guys for numbers so we can chill on the weekend, I always feel wierd doin that though.

The best idea might be to have a party yourself. icallug just posted a great thread on how to throw a party. Advertise it around the whole school, invite everyone, and make sure they know it will be quality. If the party is rockin you will get a good reputation and girls and guys will want to get to know you.

BE ****ING OUTGOING AS ****

Except for the fact I live in a medium sized connecting house apartment next to another person. I don't think it's a good party place. Plus my parents are always home. I have been outgoing as f**k. But y'know, it's still hard. Maybe I should just keep trying. Maybe try a party, I don't know. It'll be hard. Jeez, it doesn't help being from a low middle class family.

If your house doesn't work for a party, try one at a park or the beach (if there's beer involved, try an abandoned lot instead) and tell people to BYOB, get people to bring chips etc if you don't want to get stuck paying for the whole thing

...man, I kind of wish I could move, my HS sucks donkey testicles for DJing and my weak rep doesn't help...that second part's slowly changing though.

Damn man, I envy you. New school = no reputation, TAKE ADVANTAGE! Go out with the hottest girl you can find and start to build a reputation.

I am in the same exact situation as you man. I'm having trouble. This coming up Monday I am going to **** fear up the ass. I am going ****ING BE OUTGOING AS ****!

LOL!

But that only goes so far because I have trouble making freinds. Being outgoing can make good associates but I want some freinds to chill with and ****, and everyone has their own cliques and ****.

I dunno man.... I don't ****ing know.

Be daring! Today I was daring. Passing back papers to classmates is a good way to learn their names and ****. Today I forced myself to volunteer to make a speech in the library in front of a whole crowd.... even though nobody knows me. I just did it to get myself known and to build up confidence, and you can do that too. Do things that will get you known.... knah mean?

Don't be afraid to only talk to all girls because avoiding situations like that hinders you from getting to know everyone. Stay away from groups when possible since all you'll mostly hear is gossip. Get to know everyone one at a time or 2 or 3 at a time. Try not to take on more. Keep meeting their friends, and befriend their friends' friends. Don't be afraid to ask a guy for his phone number or screen name. Find people who have the same interests as you, and make those your closest circle. Work for the position that if people go out somewhere, you are always informed about it without you having to ask.
