Is it normal to not have friends right away in a new school?

I think it's normal because it's only been two weeks which is not a very long time. Unless you're the kind of very out-going and talkative person, I guess it's not easy to make friends right away in a new school.

Apparently, the only obstacle to your making friends is your shyness. A few of your classmates have been friendly to you, so you know you still have chances. You really need more confidence :) Even when you feel shy and nervous, try to act more friendly and always smile :)

If you really don't know 'the right things to say', then you may just try to start conversations by asking things about the school since you're new. But if you really can't muster enough courage to start conversations, then you may want to join/engage in different activities at school. I think when you can find out your interest and engage in related activities, you may find people with the same interest, and it'd be easier for you to be friends with them.

I'd say that Facebook is certainly another great way for you to make some friends! You really should try to search for your schoolmates on Facebook and add them as your friends. It can be a gesture of friendship :) And you can let them know more about you. You may also want to chat with them on Facebook. I think it'd be good for you because in this way you wouldn't need to talk to them in person and you'd feel less nervous.

I'm confident that you'll be able to make some friends if you keep trying :)

Good luck!

Yeah but after a certain amount of time you lose the opportunity to make new friends easily. People will get use to you and not even take a second glance. You'll be part of the crowd.

Its perfectly normal. You barely know anybody yet, just give it some time. You'll make friends soon, just give it some time. Just find something in common and you should be all set ; everyone has something in common.

Very normal. It's kind of like me except that I do make friends and all. But don't worry, you'll get some friends, it'll just take some time. That's what usually happens to me. My best friend, it took us like 3 months to actually be best friends. But it worked. I'm sure it'll work for you! Keep trying and good luck!!!

It's normal. Sometimes, It can take some time to get comfortable enough. For instance, The last course I took at CC was in art and I was so panicked around everyone that I barely talked for days. Around, the 2nd or 3rd day, I finally plucked up courage to talk to this girl and now we're friends. It can take awhile depending how you feel around a setting. Don't worry, I'm sure you have something in common with at least one person in your school. Do they have clubs at your school? Let's say, you like drama or art, if you joined either clubs it would make it easier to get to know someone.

Good Luck!

Its completely normal as its only been two weeks, and you don't have to try and find 'the right things to say' just be yourself and have more confidence, it makes it easier for others to approach you
