lostjeff Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 I'm 26 and I only have a few friends! I just can't believe this...I spend almost every weekend alone or with family. I have 2 or 3 good friends, and a bunch of aquitances, but man, I feel like I am missing out on so much. This can't be life. There is no spontinaity, no stories. Life seems so pointless. My one good friend tells me about all the times he's hooked up with girls, how hes gone to parties, and how he has buddies all over the place. I see people together all the time around me, talking about things. People on their cell phones, talking. Well, * * *, am I some kind of freak? I haven't even kissed a girl. And he's 3 years younger than me. I have been avoidant in the past, but I'm getting better. I am being more sociable, but I still have almost nothing. Almost no network. Just a few friends on myspace, and only a few of them respond to my mesasges. I am not sure if I should even go to my high school reunioun. The few people I know there will probably not know me, because I was shy back then and a nobody. Where do I go from here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renaissancewoman101 Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Go out and do things. Get involved in some clubs and activities (stuff you are interested in). Talk to people at these gatherings. If you circulate around, you are bound to make friends. Now, I need to listen to my own advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made aquaintances. Those are easy. But friends? It seems impossible, and the only girls who will socialize with me are the ones with a ring on their finger. I can make a whole list of things I want to do or learn, and meeting people and making aquaintances would be an easy, ancillary objective. But friends? Hardly anyone wants to be friends, because they don't have time or the inclination. How can I make friends with people?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah those sites are pretty dumb, but as soon as I started checkin em out I began hookin up like crazy. Every guy I tell about em gets better with girls, but hey you gotta do what works for you I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momene Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 When you're in your situation, it seems like everyone else is having lots of fun and you're the only one who isn't. You are not some kind of freak as there are millions of people of both sexes all over the world who are just like you. You don't mention work. Do you meet anyone at/through work? You meet someone friendly. Do you exchange e-mail addresses or arrange to meet? I agree that going to pubs/bars/dance clubs alone is pretty intimidating and scares me to death but sometimes it's knowing that someone is open. Are you only considering girls within a narrow age band? How would you feel about dating someone much older/younger or from a different race? For example, my wife is 8 years younger and foreign. Yes, we've had our bad times but we've been together 17 years. Like to chat online? Well (for example) I get busy sometimes and don't get in touch but I usually reply to messages. I can't say I'm an expert but I was a nerd at school and it can be overcome. I don't out of respect for my wife and daughter but even at nearly twice your age I could still pull if I wanted to, so if I can you can. Good luck.
