I have no friends in high school or college. What should I do?

Be your own best friend and then reach out to others. I once knew a woman, very popular, whose friendship I would have liked, but I felt that she already had too many people in her circle. We spoke on the phone once and she told me how no one reached out to her. People liked her but she did all the work reaching out. So I took the initiative and reached out to her. She appreciated it so much that we have been very close friends for about 2 years now. I met her in college. Making friends starts with initiative.

Be outgoing and try making conversations. Sometimes you have to be the one to introduce yourself instead of people coming to you.

personally, I am struggling with the same thing right now. So, i have decided to just start to talk to people. I now have one friend in my medical term class. Maybe try to open up a bit?

One of the best tips I can offer would be to consider joining different societies and clubs in your college/school. Be a little bold and speak to people. Help people who need it. Seek out others who appear lost and alone and lift them up. You can only gain friends if you become friendly towards others. Think positively about yourself. Do not feel like you dont deserve friends or anything like that. Relax and be yourself. Things won't be this way for long

If you have no friends, don't fret! Try finding a club that seems interesting to you and join it. If you see a table at lunch that isn't filled with people, ask to sit down with the people at the table and start up a conversation with them. Also try talking to some people in your classes who seem interesting to you. And when filling out your schedule for next year, take classes that seem enjoyable to you. Fitting in with the suggestion about talking to people in your classes, especially make sure to talk to some people in the electives you choose that you think seem interesting because those people thought the classes seemed interesting too and might have a lot in common with you!

Can you consider to make some that will be there for you no matter what and find ways to share thoughts with them and exchange thoughts.

Friends are easy to find but real ones are hard to find. If you cannot make friends in highschool or college, it is okay. Quality is better than quantity. You may not have one in that environment but it doesnt mean that you will never have. Be nice to people, and try to be open with your life. Be true to yourself in order for you to find your perfect match. It is not easy to find a true friend, it may take years and a lot of experiences but you have to be patiently wait for it because sooner or later it will come :-)

Essay question: I have no friends in high school or college. What should I do? Essay response: When I was a student, I did not realize it at the time, though most others were students like me. It was my opinion that I had to be strong, by myself. It was my assumption that they didn't want to be interrupted by me or desire for friendship. Due to this line of logic, I convinced myself that I should not bother. That they would approach me if they desired friendship. I assumed they felt differently than I did. I missed the fact that we had so much in common. I was afraid to embarrass myself, and I did not understand that they too are afraid to take that same chase of being embarrassed while trying to seek out friendship. There may have been a few grouchy friends, but most of them were just as eager as I was to have a new friend.

try joining a club or sport love you'll find people with the same interest as you

Try joining some clubs or out of school activities, it will mean you're able to meet new people. You just haven't found the right people yet :)
