I'm was very shy but have pushed myself out of it. I try to meet people and make friends but it seems like I am the only one trying. What I mean is I talk to people in class and such all the time, but no one ever starts a conversation with me. I don't mind doing it, but always having to be the one to do it gets tiring and is confusing me. Are most people uninterested in makeing more friends? Do they have all the friends they want? Are there many people who are looking for friends?
(I don't smell bad)
I'm not pushy, most of the time i ask people if they like this class.

Keep starting conversations. Or call a friend and invite them to a movie. They will definantly say yes, and then you will get to know them a little better.
Like my person?

If you have any problems with starting conversations talk about thing outside of school like your fave pop star or fergie(u no stuff people like to do) and maybe they'll like that stuff 2. I had the same problem 2 but I just loosened up and got 2 know people better and Know I have allot of friends. Then if that doesn't work try out for a after school activity but not something that not u because if you don't like that club how will u met people that like what u like.Just remember to be your selve because if your not you how are you?

I think, and this is without knowing you at all...that maybe you are putting too much importance in making friends. Just chill by yourself and smile at everyone and friends will come to you. It's not how you dress (the smelling good thing is a plus, though). It's all about the presentation. The first impression people will get from you is a welcoming smile, and everyone knows that those work wonders.

i'm kinda in your same boat, but have in a way stopped trying. i think maybe it's cuz if you had previously been really shy, they may think it's odd that you are now trying to make an effort. i know it's hard, and i know exactly how you feel. i don't dislike who i am, but sometimes it sucks being shy and wish i had my friends here to make fun with. but anyways, you can keep trying if you want...if you get no where, just be natural and go about your own business, yet be really nice to people; and if someone opens up to you, take that opportunity to also make a connection. good luck!

You care too much what other people think. If you don't smile very much that also could be a factor. If you send out a positive vibe people will reflect it. Smiles are contagious. So is a positive attitude. #1 don't try so hard people can sense this too. Majority does not appreciate a suck up.

Maybe they are just getting used to you talking. If you have spent quite awhile not talking than they don't really know you yet. Give it time.............it will work out

Make one really good friend, and then add another and another etc.
Spend a bunch of time making one good friend first.
