I used to have 1 really close friend but she went to america to a new school, now in 8th grade i have 3 close friends but I still feel lonely. I have had a crush on that guy for 1 1/2 years and I still don't even dare to get close to him. Any advice on what I should do? I feel left out and pointless.

Well don't be too hard on yourself for feeling left out. You sound a little depressed. Don't let this experience make you feel down. Try to focus on how much better you will feel when you recover from your feelings.
Recovering from your feelings for someone is a very important thing that you must learn how to do.
The feeling of overcoming those feelings is like a freedom that feels better than even being in love because it helps you realize that you actually love yourself and loving yourself is the most important thing you have to do when you feel the way you do.

go talk to him. the worst thing that could happen is he says hey and then there's awkward silence. that's really not that bad when you think about it so why not do it? about your friends, keep in contact with your friend in America, maybe she feels kinda like you do, lonely and in need of support and friendship. If you were pointless you wouldn't be here and since you are clearly you have a purpose. 8th grade is hard but you'll make it through, look forward to high school, it gets better.

UR NOT POINTLESS!!! thats for sure!!!! I went through the SAME thing!!!! NO JOKE!! I know every1 says it'll get better with time and u probably dont belive them but it's true!!!! Having a crush and dating are 2 different things!!!! U dont have to be close to a guy to crush on him but if u date open up tell him how u feel!!! Does he know u like him?? I know ur in 8th grade so ur embarrased and shy and dont want others to know but if hes sweet he'll keep ur secret!!!! Just dont get to open with just anyone they'll hurt u!!!!
good luck hun!!

If that friend is close, then she must still be in contact with you. I know that it feels lonely without the best friend, but remember, life goes on. If you like the guy, first start a friendship with him......then slowly tell him your feelings, as a friend. You both will get closer enough and your job is done. Good luck!

Well if you feel lonely try to make another really close friend like the one you had before she went to an American school. When it comes to the boy you like, try to talk to him, if your scared to do it anyways it will help you over come other fears you have.

Join clubs or classes that tend to make friends--such as after-school clubs, volunteer work, or classes like Newspaper, Band, or Choir. It's easier to make friends if you find activities to do together. For the guy, try to find something to ask him about. For example, "Did you get the pages of our homework in Algebra? I think I have the wrong ones."

Just talk to him and start planning fun things to do. You have to understand that life is about moving on & improving. There will come a time in your life that you will have to move on and make new friends. It's all part of growing up.

you need to go to a parent or a school counselor and tell them that you are depressed so that they can get you the help you need
