Why Am I Friendless?

Could be. Hang in there - you can be one of us as long as you like :)

want waffles?

Yeah, people are wrapped up in their lives so much these days that they have lost touch with each other. Look on Facebook and see how many friends people have but don't connect with any of them. You're not alone being alone.

OP

Sorry you have to go through this.

You are right I think. It takes friends to make friends.


YOu need a mate that you can do things with and have a family yourself.

I think if you have a family yourself you wil attract people who also have families.

It is tough being single and trying to find a friend.

WHiTE MEN DONT WANT U, START INTERRACiAL FRiENDSHiPS >.> COLORED RACE'S APPRECiATE U WAY MORE

So true.

Something is bad about this concept.
this is one reason why I have nothing to do with this site.

What you need to do is sit down and write out a list of activities and possible hobbies you are in to. Then if you have the time, and I hope everyone would have the time for your healths' sake, investigate where there is a group or place to go where people who share the same interests as you meet up etc... For instance, a cooking class, book club, dance lessons, cycling tours(that's me), art forums, etc... just stay away from the bars and you'll do alright.

you need to be a friend in order to have a friend.

get involved in some outside activities that you enjoy, i.e volunteering, classes, church, singles clubs, etc.

you'll find a friend!

Sorry to hear you feel that way, have to agree so many people around us swamp themselves with their family members, it is hard to break in. I am a loner by heart, just a few acquaintances all of whom have families who come first, but occasionally I long for someone to take an interest in me, as I attempt to do with others :) Don't give up. I walk my dogs which is a good ice-breaker, but you have to truly love animals, do the right thing by them.

Fuck people. Right now is when you find out who is important to you. If you're really wanting friendship, just put yourself out there. Throw a PS3 gaming party with some of the folks at work. Ask them to bring a friend. Don't get smashed, but enjoy yourself. Maybe the people you work with bring someone you click with.

I feel like you, OP.

It's like my life just STOPPED about three or four years ago.

No new relationships since then. No new friends.

Nothing. Literally, nothing.

It just...stopped. It's like my life stopped moving forward.

I can't even have a pet, because my idiot roommate doesn't want one.

It gets lonely. It's not healthy. At all.

I agree with others, that you MUST get involved in SOMETHING.

To that end, I've decided to begin visiting the local Mormon church. I'm not religious, nor do I even believe in God, but where else am I going to start? I live in Las Vegas, a completely shitty place, and Mormons are at least decent people, they have a moral structure they live by, and maybe I'll meet a girl there.

I am Your Brother.

and You are my Sister,

And God is our Father.

Keep Your head up,and never forget that You are loved by many strangers.....

I think alot of us are feeling more disconnected, lately>

And I believe its because of technology.

Such as Iphones,and Computers.

But don't worry, because the High Command has something new coming.

:)

=======================================

Ditto : People have forgotten how to get together and just porch talk. That 1984 Apple commercial was a lie - the personal computer and TV have enabled Big Brother and destroyed individuality. Turn the electric off for just an hour or two and see how wacked people get.

Im your friend

I wanted to mention this earlier... As I said there are some people around me I get on with, but have no room for me in their lives....One thing that really blows me away is that occasionally I'll get some time with one of them and it will be only minutes before one of their phones is ringing with someone (usually family) demanding their attention. If they ignore the phone the person will just keep ringing/texting until they finally get their attention. It is almost stalkerish in its intensity.

Funnily enough it makes me appreciate my solitude. It seems like the people in their lives are incredibly demanding

perhaps your standard of what a good friend is may be too high?

there are plenty of people out there to make connections with. you just may not be looking in the right places.

also - do you spend a lot of time online, especially on things such as facebook/twitter? if so, chances are you are too alienated from the outside world to really even give yourself time for friends. go out and get some fresh air! making friends starts outside the home. once you get friends, then you can play all the PS3 you want with them and watch DVDs til the cows come home.

Pics or

SHUT THE FUCK UP, UR A ATTENTiON WHORE, DUMB BiTCH

What you would consider a friend I might consider an acquaintance..

I mean to say, a good friend isn't easy to come by. Go to church? I'm not religious, nor do I suggest anyone else be. But the festivities are there..

OP SOUNDS LiKE A FAG >.> NO LiFE

U HAVE NO FRiENDS!!!!!!! LOL

All this dirty talk is turning me on..

You missed one - where is MOTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????

Its not dirty talk its just telling the truth about the fat american pigshit

There may be something in this....I had someone over the other week and she just picked an argument with me...I had to admit I preferred my solitude. Other 'friends' have caused me trouble, though we've had good times (which I try to focus on)...

No twitter or facebook. I see those things as being for popular people...

Kill your self OP

I think a lot of people who think they have friends really don't.


Sometimes I wonder if the real difference between me and others is that I KNOW I dont have any friends....

They cause you trouble its true its weird really if you have no friends you get less trouble but are lonely.

post a picture OP let us be the judge of that.
