Just be yourself. Be honest to yourself and to others. Do not do things that are out of your comfort level in order to make new friends. In other words find people who have the same likes and dislikes as you do. Never compromise yourself. I had to move to a new town when I was a sophomore in highschool. It was very difficult but it would have been easier if I were honest to myself. Be smart!

If you are already connected to the girl (ie, talk, go out in groups, hang out sometimes alone, etc) this one line usually worked for me:\n\n"Ya know, we've been friends for some time now, and I feel I like you on a whole new level.."\n\n(By the way. I'm marrying that girl)\n\nIf you don't know her, flatter her and say daring things to her. Don't try to work up a *friends* relationship and then work it out from there... she'll feel decieved, as if many things you said before were planned out.

Get EVERYTHING you own that reminds you of them and put it in a box. Give that box to friend and have them stash it somewhere you won't have access to it. Change your sheets, get a new haircut (something dramatic, this helps alot btw), get a differrent hobby, don't talk to them for a few years, none of this "we can still be friends bs" cause you won't want to hear about who they're dating, go on dates with other people, get into shape (like way better than you are now, with the expectation that you'll run into your ex again and will be able to say "see what you lost, now you can't have me anymore"), spend a lot of time with your friends, try to learn more about who YOU are without that person in your life, change whatever you don't like about yourself, cut loose of any ties to that person. In 5 years, give them a call (if you are over them) and see what they are up to, maybe then you can be friends.

Give her your e-mail address or "screen-name"! Then tell her she can use it anytime she wants to tell you something she can't tell your friend. \n\nIf she uses it...you may gain a (girl) friend...if she does'nt, YOU \nWILL KEEP THE FRIEND YOU ALREADY HAVE!

If your friend wants to have a boyfriend, here's my advice:\n\n1. Get involved. Other than school, what clubs and activities does your friend do? Tell your friend to join a club or two - she'll not only meet a bunch of new people, but she'll get to expand her own horizons at the same time. Good clubs for meeting guys? Try Habitat for Humanity (where you build homes for poor people), Greenpeace (save the environment), and any local food kitchen to help poor/homeless people in your neighborhood. Any guy involved in those kind of clubs is probably a guy with a good heart. Your friend could even form a study group for a class and study at the same time as getting to know her classmates better. Be creative!\n\n2. Make friends. When your friend is around new people, does she smile and introduce herself?  Does she start a conversation up, or does she tend to stay to herself? Tell your friend to make new friends - both guys *and* girls - and expand her social circle. The best way to meet a guy is to be introduced to him by someone you know.  That way, you know a little bit more about where he's coming from and what he's about. Every guy I've ever dated was first introduced to me as a friend of a friend - including my husband! So, don't be shy. Make some friends and expand your social network. Go to parties, or throw your own! You never know who you'll meet next.\n\n3. Live your life. Tell your friend not to make chasing guys her main focus - guys don't want a girl who seems boy-crazy or desperate. Your friend should pursue her own friends, hobbies, activities, and interests - she will be much more likely to meet a guy that could become her boyfriend if she puts herself out there then if she stays at home.

Make it a point to keep in touch, email, phone calls.  Try to get together when everyone is in town for the holidays.  I lost touch with my high school friends and I regret it. With todays technology, that shouldn't be an issue!!!!!!\nPlus, if they are truely your friends, you'll still keep in touch!

Get involved in some sort of club or committee in your school.  Volunteer in a clothes drive or something.  You are gauranteed to meet some friends that way.

You will have a lot of 'friends' through your school life. It's very normal for friends to come and go in your life. I will tell you that I have been out of high school now for 30 years and I have 2 friends that I still keep in touch with from there.\n\nIn your life, you will have many acquaintences, but your true 'friends' you will be able to count on one hand and have fingers left over.

Wow!  I think there are easier ways to keep girl friends other than changing your sex.  Perhaps the only thing you need to cut off is your current emasculating friends!

Who cares about popularity? Most of these people you will not talk to anymore after graduation. Hang with the poeple who care about you, forget about the ones who dont. Do you really want to be friends with girls who don't give a crap about you?
