Al right i have a confession. but first background info: When i was younger (in elementary) I was a complete loner. I only had only one friend, but he often made fun of me infront of other kids. I think i was a loner because my parents dont have any social skills at all and that got passed on to me, but i always wanted to have friends. This naturally lead to depression in middle school. in middle school i had max 4 friends, but this wasn't what bothered me. Me not being able to talk to girls bothered the shit out of me. for some reason i thought all girls were better than me and i would be lucky just to have one girl in my life. So some time during freshman year in highschool i googled 'how to get a date' or something like that (lol yea i was a loser haha) and all this shit came up. a couple days later i downloaded "david DeAngelo's double your dating" pdf (this post is not an advertisement) and i read the whole thing front to back. Three years later i have many amazing friends, girls that i play around with and always something to do every weekend, and i owe it all to this book. I dont think ill ever share this confession for a while in real life (you guys get the exclusive). The secret is that this book doesn't actually teach you how to pick up girls, but it breaks you down and tells shows you that "finding your true self" is all bull shit, but instead BUILD your true self into a confident attractive man, and to never stop bulding yourself. i have more to say but theres just too much. if it weren't for me googling how to get girls, i would most certainly be in my house feeling sorry for my self and cry myself to sleep (thats what i did in middleschool).
God, I was exactly like you. i just came out of myself, still don't have many friends, but I have lots of acquantances(sp) now! Most people will talk to me without judging me. I kind of only have one real friend at school, but i have lots of others who I talk to me. People still remember what I was like When I was younger (ie, a total nerd), and they ahven't let me forget it.
i still have long ways to go, there are some days that i just feel like shit and yelling at the world, but at least now i can make friends and actually TALK to people socially and make actual connections
