socializing help and with a girl abusive father emotional issues help: ok, there’s a new girl at my church, and i need to try - Help.com

ok, there’s a new girl at my church, and i need to try and become friends with her…

but i SUCK at socializing so i would appreciate some help with this if you please, and for the record, yes, i do like her, but no, that is not the complete reason i feel i need to become friends with her, she’s just come with her mother away from an abusive father a few weeks back, she doesn’t have many friends so i thought i’d try and take it upon myself to help her get used to things.. if you think this is a bad idea, lemme know

Just chat with her, welcome to the church, how do you like this town, go on to what music do you like etc. I’m sure she will appreciate someone making an effort to talk to her and making her feel more comfortable. When I’m in a new place usually no one one approaches me and I have to make the first move, which is quite hard for me anyway because I’m shy. I’m really pleased if someone speaks to me first, it just makes you feel more confident that people actually want to get to know you, especially if shes been through a bad time. So just go for it, I’m sure she will be happy to carry on the conversation and the rest will come naturally :)

it sounds like a great idea! dont try to be friends with her any other way than you would with anyone else. be kind considerate and friendly. im sure she will be happy that someone wants to be her friend!
