I've written this post three or four times now, not quiet sure what the most solid advice is that I could give you, so here we go again. There is no need to change who you are as a person. These characteristics are what make you unique and ultimately make you interesting. It's these characteristics that you need to show off to be good at making friends. When talking to people, it's essential that you look them in the eyes. Or, as I like to do, look at their nose. It's a lot easier to look at somebodies nose than it is to look into their eyes. Imagine a triangle, the two eyes and the centre of the top lip are the points. If you're looking anywhere in that area it will appear to the other person that you are looking into their eyes. Be careful however, because it's easier to look at the persons nose, it's also easier to look their longer and appear as if you're staring. Two or three seconds at most, then look away and back again.

Don't pick on how attractive you think they are! I know your teenage mind works, it was only a few years ago I was a teenager
Dude, there is not a lot more I can say than when you meet people, they want to be your friend. It's just natural for people to want to be friends with every person they come into contact with. As long you don't give people a reason to dislike you, they won't think any less of you for talking. Awesome way to keep a conversation going is to remember that people love to talk about themselves. How was their day, what did they get up to last night, what are their plans for tonight or the weekend, if they have a pet, talk about the pet!
