I have been depressed for the past few years and have been very quiet in school and around people, never did much on the weekends. But now that my life is changing I'm feeling better and I always want to do everything. I get soooo bored now when I'm not around friends but they think I'm just a quiet boring person. Well I was but not anymore how can I get this message aross so I'll receive more phone calls from people on the weekends and stuff?? I feel like an idiot posting this but I don't know what to do =( Any ideas? thanks

First of all, love yourself...be happy and once you project that to others..then they will start to like you. Be approachable and talkative. Learn how to conversate and make friends! It is not easy, but find something in common and talk about that! Smile and laugh or tell jokes. People like to go out with positive people! Call them. Do not expect people to talk to you first. Take the initative and smile and make small conversations..like talk about the weather..compliment them! Anything..once you learn how to interact with others then people will come to you! Best advice..have fun! Smile, laugh, and be yourself! Do things that you enjoy doing! Practice..practice...because being outgoing is an art! I should know!

What are you good at? impress them by your talents.maybe you could bring up a weird topic that would catch their attention. i'm quiet in school, don't do much, don't see my friends often. i mean i like my friends but i don't want to be around them because i'm a very different person and plus i love being at my home. i would consider myself popular otherwise. i hope you don't think i'm plain boring by telling you to look up these odd topics(just my personality) poetry, contortionists,ect.blah,blah what kind of music do you like talk and relate to what they talk about. check out something that is interesting to you. from what you wrote,you don't sound very boring-not boring at all. in my opinion, quiet people have more to say because they have kept everything to them selves.pick up a hobby you can talk about i guess. p.s. i suffer from being depressed and i totally understand your situation.

Iys okay to be upset, cry and be depressed when something bad happens. Do what you have to in that time. But come out of it in quick time. Why worry about people liking you. Be yourself. That is what honest and caring people look for in a person. Go out, meet people. You don't need someone to call you to go out and have fun. As you do go out and be yourself, you will see that the places you go, people ther ewill be happy to see you and want to hang out. This takes time so be patient.
