I don't think I really have any friends. I mean, I don't hang out with people after school, or on the weekends. Sure sometimes I talk to people at school, but thats it. In middle school I had some friends but when eighth grade came that dissapated. I had another friends but now in tenth grade thats starting to disappear too. What do I do to make some friends and keep the old ones? We have no classes together and the school has a lot of students.

first to have friends you have to know who you are and what you like and dont like what you believe and what you dont . what you are willing to do and what you are not . what you will tolerate and what you will not. how much you will give and why you will give it. .
this is what a friend comes to know or think they know about there friend.
well it is wrong to judge others it is also wrong to judge yourself.
to have a friend you must be willing not to judge . be willing not to
attempt to change the friend. be willing not to ask more of a friend then you are willing to give the friend. be willing to allow a friend to do what they want with you even if that is not exactly what you wanted. be willing to go to places and meet people accept things and give things that you may not really want to .
you see in order to have a friend you have to be willing to give without getting. be willing to get but not without giving.
you will see that willing is used many times. you have to be willing to take a chance . be willing to be laughed at. be willing not to laugh at them. be willing to be hurt and willing to forgive.
many people who dont have friends at your age have constructed a frame around themselfs that does not allow for
any of what i have listed to take place.
you need to tear down the walls . stand in the open . let the wind take you and chance guide you . many times each week you are given the chance to be a friend. simple things like hello are really
big things as they are chances to accept learn laugh have fun and become a friend.
you have to see the chances when someone smiles at you smile back and add to it hello.
when someone bumps into you let your guard stay down and you will find that was not an attack but really just chance giving tou one more chance to be a friend.
you see you can not have a friend but you can be a friend . we never own our friends so we have no charge over them and as such we must know all that i listed about ourselfs and then be willing to let each bit of that change . we cant change our friends but they can must be able to change us.
try what i have written and work on it you will find in time when the walls have come down and the people see you and see you have no weapons by simply extending your hand to shake hands tyou have shown that you intend no harm and are willing to give them a hand.
thats all we need is a hand. and thats all we have to give in order to have a friend your hand as a part of you open and empty ready to be used by them taken with them and let free without danger.

Sounds like you're getting lost in the shuffle. That can happen sometimes in a school setting. I would try to settle on some activities you are really interested in and join some clubs related to them. That way you can meet some people with similar interests.
Also be nice to people, smile, compliment them and be generally approachable. Do something nice for someone -- they will usually notice.

you can meet new people with the same interests as you by joining a team or a club that's a sure way to make new friends good luck and happy new year.
