chosen: The best way to handle this is to be welcoming, friendly, and accommodating. Spend time with her and get to know her as a person, then include her in social activities when it’s appropriate and she’s comfortable with it. Also encourage her to find other people to interact with by herself. This may take time, but she is your friend and she deserves to be respected and accepted.
  
   Additionally, if she is ever in a situation where she is uncomfortable or struggling, make sure to check in with her to make sure she is safe and let her know it’s okay to withdraw if needed. Most of all, make sure she knows that you are her friend and there for her!
