socially awkward

wow, Life gets stranger everyday. I have two new job offers, and might have an school scholarship. I am excited, but one problem I seem to have is making friends. I have maybe 1 , and I never see her. I am on meetup.com, I go out everyday, and try to be friendly at work, and when I go the library, or the beach with my kids. But no one seems to like me, I am not overdoing it. I just feel like my social anxiety and trying to be friendly, people just dont like me. I guess I get tired of waking up every morning, with no one to call, no one to hang out with. Is anyone else as socially dysfunctional as me?

 

be yourself
don't worry how you appear to other people, don't worry if other people like you or not.
just be yourself, and you'll find friends

 

just keep on truckin.....you will find some along the way

 

Good replies, yeah if people don't like you then fuckem why would you like them?

 

I don't really have anyone i talk to on a daily basis besides my GF... my one buddy is moving back up from St. Louis.. so then i'll have my other sidekick.. but hes got a kid now.. so its slightly different.. i have a lot of people i consider friends.. but i see them rarely.. when i go out to shows.. festivals.. fishing.. etc.. but aside from that.. i lone it.. it doesn't bother me.. nor should it bother you... usually in the long run friends complicate things anyways

 

best advice,
thread over haha

 

Yeah. Some people need to have friends all the time though or they feel really lonely and shit. I think that is mostly girls though.

 

I don't like to have a lot of friends.
Too much.

The only people i talk to/hang out with is my bae, brooke and sadi...
And we hang out with josh and nick and everyone when im with him..
I content with it.. i just wish i would see my bf more.

 

most girls need at least one fat friend.. helps them feel better about themselves

 

I don't have a fat friend....
Well theres one fat guy i hang out with but i met him when me and sir got together. hahaha.
And hes just really cool as shit. We dance together.

 

I'm very socially awkward and have some pretty severe social anxiety problems, but it doesn't really matter all that much, because I love my solitude. As long as I have one good friend I can call when I wanna hang out with someone, that's all that matters.

 

Exactly.

 

i love solitude too!

that's silly

 

I love solitude as well

 

I've got some wicked bad social anxiety problems myself. I've always had a difficult time in larger social situations. I either shut up or go away. I just prefer not to talk over a million people.

 

I'm the same way.

Congrats on 1,000 posts, btw

 

then he had to fuck it up by making it 1,001

 

yeah.. social anxiety is a bitch.. i do not do well around large crowds overall.. though i've been picking up these bouncing shifts when we have shows at work to kinda help with me to get over it

 

I dont do big crowds at all.
The only time i would be in a place with a large group of people was when the entire clique would hang out at brookie's and my place and there would be like ten of us and we would all be like spread out.

 

Sorry I'm not tailoring my post count to your liking, sir.
