Can I still make this friendship work at 17 years old (Im not very social)???

The only thing is "BE YOURSELF" don't be afraid mingling people. Be confident, as long as you don't hurt anybody. I guess you have also problem in personality appearance since you're just 17y.o. u still have a lot of body changes..which is normal. As long as you keep yourself pretty,smells good,neat and clean...there u go it can boosts your self confident. Working for friendships to make it lasts longer, theres some points to it. 1.) Loyalty 2.) Be there, like a listener or advicers when she needs u. 3.) offer help when your free. 4.) be honest with your feelings to them.
