If you want to develop a more pleasing personality and make friends.......... become genuinely interested in other people. Show kindness........ you may be wearing the latest designer label clothes, the hottest brand shoes and the coolest jewelry but if you display sourness and selfishness you'll have a battle ahead of you to make good friends.
Smile.....smile and continue to smile. It costs nothing, enriches those who receive it, happens in a flash but the memory lasts forever, it creates happiness in the home and classroom. A smile can not be bought, begged or borrowed, it comes from the heart. If you want other people to like you....... make the other person feel important - and do it sincerely!
Many people make friends at work. Open yourself up to the possibilities by participating in social occasions, such as Friday night drinks or lunches to celebrate employee birthdays.
Follow your interests. For example, if you like walking, join a neighbourhood walking group.
If you don't work and have no particular hobbies, consider joining a volunteer group with a charity that interests you.
Use your existing network of family and friends to meet new people.
Don't turn down party invitations
Join groups that share your common interests. Talking about one of your passions, such as gardening or writing short stories, for example, can help give you confidence to talk about other things with potential new friends.
Watch and learn from gregarious people who make friends easily.
Practise looking people in the eye when you talk to them.
Listen to what others are saying, rather than focusing on your own self-consciousness.
Smile.
Look for anyone else in the room who seems socially awkward, and approach them for conversation.
When you talk to someone new, ask them questions about themselves or what they like to do; it's a good way to get started.
Social skills can be learned, so seek professional help if you feel you need it.

I would just be myself and be friendly. Don't try to come on to strong but gradually get to know some new people. I know it may be hard because they have been friends for a long time and prob have a lot of inside jokes and little quirks about them. Invite some people over or join a school activity or something. There are people out there like you and don't settle for just any old friend. You need to find someone that cares about you. Just bew friendly and keep your options open to ne1 that comes along.

Be yourself and good people will find you. These people aren't friends if they're playing games and don't waste your time with them. And I bet the group is a whole lot different when they are by themselves.....and can't pull off that attitude.

When you hear people talking to other people find out what they like to talk about and then go up to them and talk to them about that subject.
