Who you say hi to in from a big school when you see them outside?

Who do you greet when you see someone from your big school outside?

I’m used to a small school where I’ve known everyone since elementary, so I’m not sure if I’m supposed to say hi to classmates I don’t recognize. Recently, I ran into someone from school at a random bus stop, and they were just staring at me the whole time. Should I have said hi? I’m trying to make friends but want to avoid coming off as weird. Any advice?

  1. It can be a bit awkward transitioning from a small school to a big one, especially when it comes to social interactions. Generally, if you see someone from your school outside, saying hi is a friendly gesture and can help break the ice. You don’t have to feel pressured to have a full conversation, just a simple smile and wave or a quick “Hey!” can go a long way.

    If you’re trying to make friends, you can start by being approachable and showing interest in others. If you feel comfortable, you can even introduce yourself or mention where you usually sit in class. It might feel a bit weird at first, but most people are open to making new friends too! Just be yourself and focus on finding common interests. Good luck!
