So just recently I transfered to a new school I got forced to go to. It's a pretty small school so theres not many people there. I feel like my friends don't even give a shit that I'm gone. I'm a pretty cool person and I'm not weird or anything like that but I've been spending a lot of time alone my parents wonder and my brother jokes around calling me a loner. Should I just shake it off and hope something better comes along the way?

    I'm guilty of being the friend who doesn't keep in touch. Once a bestie of mine went to a more rural school, but we were all switching from middle to high school anyway. I guess I assumed she'd need to start over again, that I'd be the clingy one, or idk. She changed dramatically because of family issues, but I wish I would've kept in touch. But from the pictures and stuff she'd post on Facebook with her new friends, she seems really happy.

    Make new buds, there are plenty in the world. If your friends are being distant like me, keep them, chat with them occasionally, but know that things will change. You'll be fine.

    This typically happens when people move and keeping friends is tough when there is any separation or distance.

    With time, there will be more people who you will come across and will be true friends to you. With time.

    dont force it. make new friends, be open to hang w the old ones but dont push it. that will only make u look and feel desperate. its prob nothing personal but u are not in their daily lives anymore so u just arent around when they are making their plans for the wknd. its ok to be alone for a few wknds. do stuff u really enjoy. u will meet some new friends.

    If your current friends are not interested in you now they never were in the first place.

    Maybe this is an opportunity to make new friends. Don't go way out of your way to be clingy and stuff with your old friends, but branch out. Have they been this detached before? What makes you feel this way to begin with?

      I agree. Make new friends but keep the old.

      Yeah they have been. I feel this way because they never call or text me. I end up doing nothing on weekends. I also feel that no one makes the effort to hang out with me anyway

        I use to feel that way. Honestly, I have made new friends and have been more connected with my old friends too, but in between, I just learned to start enjoying my own company. Doing things I wanted to do. But that's just so life is livable, you should start trying to branch out. It's not easy I know, but at least try, don't wait for someone to come to you because it might never happen. A good place to start is school clubs if they have any, hopefully there is something open that you find of interest.
