here are literally billions of potential friends in the world. What's more, many of these people want to make friends just as much as you do.
dont be afraid to be by yours self, just be independant, caring just be you. You must love everything about your self to start, Then just be by your self for a while, If you look like your having fun by your self people will just approche you, and then you will gain respect.
the easiest pleaces to meet people are:
School or work. If you're in school or have a lot of co-workers, you're surrounded by potential friends for a large portion of your day.
Join a club with people of common interests. You don't necessarily have to have a lot of common interests with people in order to make friends with them--in fact, some of the most rewarding friendships are between two people who don't have much in common at all--but if you have something in common with people, it can make it a lot easier to talk to them and plan activities initially. Whatever your age and whatever your interests, there is a club or organization for you.
Join a team. Especially if you're in school, joining a sports team can be great way to make friends. A common misconception about this is that you have to be really good at playing a particular sport in order to make friends with others on the team, but this isn't true. As long as you enjoy the sport, try your best, and acknowledge that you're not a pro, your teammates will usually be more than happy to accept you for who you are.
Volunteer. Volunteering is a great way for people of all ages to meet others. By working together you build bonds with people, and the fact that you're devoting your time to something free of charge shows that you're compassionate and unselfish, two traits of good friends.
Get online. In general, the internet isn't a great place to make real friends, the kind who will be there for you when you really need them. If, however, you use social networking sites, forums, or other online communities to find people in your area, you can introduce yourself online and then meet people in person. If you live in a really isolated place, the internet can also help you find other people around the world that share your interests.
Talk to people. You can join a club, go to school, or go to church, and you still won't make friends if you don't actually talk to people. By the same token, you don't have to be involved with an organization to talk to people, and any time you talk to someone, you have a chance at making a lasting friend. You can talk to anybody: the clerk at the video store, the person sitting next to you on the bus, or the person in front of you in the unemployment line. Don't be picky. Most conversations will be a dead-end of sorts, in that you may never talk to that person again or you'll just remain acquaintances, but once in a while you'll actually make a friend.
good luck.

not to sure what is your exact problem. but I do know that to be humbel helps and genuine. people do not like fake and want someone they can count on to be a real friend as well. I'm guessing your young so if you can count on your one hand all the friends that were really worth having by the end of your life, you did well. I wouldn't worry about it if you currently don't have many friends.

You just have to say whats on your mind and tell them how
you truly feel about the situation and it usually helps if you are naturally a nice person that ppl can trust and rely on if u will just sound truly passionate about what you are saying and be as nice as possible then you will be a advice machine!

Be nicer? Try harder? They are many factors that could stop people from likeing you. You just need to be outgoing and be yourself. Eventually someone that likes things you do will meet you, and you guys can become friends. Its all a matter of time.

I have that problem too, because i'm shy & keep to myself.
To over come that, every time someone new moves into my neighborhood.. i force myself to go introduce myself & let them know if they need help i'm here.
That works..
