I think that the best thing to do is to introduce yourself or initiate communication about something common on a one-to-one basis. It is easier to meet people without being judged,etc, if it is one-on-one because nobody is influenced by a third party or fourth, and so on. If you can get some sort of meaningful communication going it shows the other person a little of what you are like. Be happy to look young, hopefully when you are older you will still look youthful and then you'll be really grateful.

Why should you have to change yourself? Just be yourself and everyone will love you!!! Well, not everyone, but if someone is nasty to you or makes fun of you, then they are not worth getting to know. You don't need to have lots of friends because if you do then it will be hard to share yourself around with everyone, because not everyone will get along with all your other friends.
If you only have a few friends, it doesn't make you a loner or whatever you want to call it, it means you are a good friend. As long as you can count on those few people to be there for you when you need them - for a chat or a shoulder to cry on - that sort of thing, then you can count yourself lucky.
Hope this helps and have fun!!!

Be more confident of yourself and that's the first step to go.. You have to stop thinking that others dont want to make friends with you..Carefully find what type of friends you're getting and find out what are their hangouts etc.. Join more activities that allow you to interact more with other mates, maybe like sports or bands etc that require you to interact more with other people?

You shouldn't need to change to get friends. Real friends like you for who you are, I get the impression you are sensitive and shy... maybe try to talk to some people. There is always a group that needs everyone.

From my personal experience, just be yourself. If they think you're not good enough for them just being you, then they're not worth it. Trust me, it's better to have a small number of friends who accept you for you rather than having a never ending circle of 'so-called friends' who don't really know or accept you for being yourself. Good luck!!!

ok . in all relationships in life in marrage , friendship or even at work you need to find an overlap and common things between you and other people. beening diffrent in apperance doesn't make you alone or loser ok .... try always to find common things ,,, give attention to the one who speak and bulid bridges . good luck

approach sumeone and start a cool topic, and introduce yourself to him/her. then maybe he/she will introduce her/himself to you, and maybe you share many interests 2gether.
try and take part in social functions, it depends on your talent. you find so many friends if you socialize.
