I'm really shy and don't know how to make friends. Help!?

I am extremely shy, and don't know how to make friends. Whenever I say something I imagine that people think I'm annoying, and don't like me. I'm not willing to change the way I act around different people, so sometimes I simply don't say anythig at all. I'm going into high school next year, so I'm afraid I won't make any friends and will be depressed.

    Having friends is so over rated, but if you feel like you just have to have a friend, find someone who is more like you, If you enjoy reading you will find someone in the school library, public library,

    do you do sports? Go to your school function. I was very shy in school too, I came out of my shyness, but I still just love being to myself. I still went to many parties & malls, I just went by myself.

    I still do! I have watched many of my student come out of their shell! You'll be O.K.

    Just be yourself and try talking to someone in school. am sure you will find someone to be friends with you. Maybe get into sports or some clubs in school. You can make friends that way.Good luck!
