View Full Version : No Friends

How do people cope? It's really hard.
At school, every break I sit on the field alone hidden as one I have nothing to do and everytime someone I know spots me they'd take the piss.
At lunch, I sit in my form room. Everyone laughs as I'm the only one in there even in the Summer.
No one to walk round with, I always am scared when teachers say we are doing group work as no one wants to work with me so I have to be the last one picked and often put into a random group by the teacher.
Even in the Summer, everyone gets at me as I don't go out. I would if I had friends, like I want to see a movie but how stupid would it look going alone? My cousin won't go and I have no friends to go with me. No friends to go to town with, or hang out with. So I spend my whole summer doing NOTHING but sitting in doors.
What is there to do, I hate life currently. It's so freaking depressing.

apart from joining club or / and after school thing...i cant suggest much
but the above would be good as it tends to let you make freinds
also just try not to think what others do or say too much as i cant imagine its healthy

Have you ever thought about going up to someone and talking to them first? Maybe you can show you want to be their friend and they will want to be yours also. I know how bad it sucks to be alone. So seriously, consider doing that.

Try and find someone else who shares your interests, hang out with them, make friends. If you can just find one person who will stick by you that is all you need. Maybe if there are any clubs like they said you could join a club of people who enjoy the things you do. Just approach some people, say something like Hey, how is it going. Ask them about their hobbies, tell em a few of yours. If you like the same thing you can start talking to each other more, become best friends.

I agree with Derri, joining a club is a good idea.

This is exactly how I feel. I was like that for five years. This year i finally started to make friends. I joined this club at school where I had two friends and I also started to take to people online. I hate when people say, "so if you talked maybe you would have friends." You can always talk to me even though you don't know me. Do you play a ssport ? Maybe you can play one. At school, would you like to join a club or try out for a sport ? I know it's hard and it still is :( But you will meet some people I promise. I takes time.

LOl that didn't work for me. First of all most of the time i was terrified to do that. The times I actually did, people basically looked at me like , Why are you talking to me ? And just walked away to be with their friends. WOrks for you maybe, but certainly not me.

It's likely impossible to be left alone in class, from the nerds to the jocks to the craps they form their own clique.
The prominent ones are the leaders of the clique.
Many a times, we will feel cliquing us tough because we are a little too introvert or unwilling to trust, it's true that friends come and go, and only the true ones stay. But somehow to survive school life we would have to do in Rome what Romans do.
I'm not referring to gaining popularity to be homecoming king /queen.
Just enough to get by.
Opening up to others would give others to open up to you.
It's all just about a couple of friends borrowing each other's time.
Many times a smile can brush off unpleasant things , even if it's a fake smile.

have you thought about playing a sport? or maybe an instrument? something to connect you to others. or like mentioned earlier, a club. i had bad anxiety with people due to autism and tourettes, but i'm not on meds and doing great. maybe you should discuss your anxiety with your parents and also with a doctor.

You can try to start a conversation with someone?
I feel for you. I'm just like you. no friends. Everyone's friendly though but I never want to start the conversation. Too shy you know. and then the problem with group work. Who am I supposed to work with?

I tend to be anti-social as well, but I had pretty much adapted and don't let it bother me much.

I'm the same way, but then I joined some clubs (on and off school) and now people keep trying to talk to me. I'd suggest a choir, as people are generally nice in them. :)

Look man, you definalty aren't antisocial, all you need to do is be bold and get out there, relationships start on common interest if you can find out what they like and if you like the same thing then great, if you join a sport team (in school or out of school) and try to kick off a friendship right away then you are sorted, if you can find out why no one hangs around with you and prove that you aren't what they think you are. I would just join a few clubs like other people have said and just meet some new people.

I have a few reccomendations for you: There are things like joining a club, or even making a club. I don't know how old you are but you do like Pokemon (I can tell by your Zoroark avatar) so why not join or even create a club outside or inside of school about it? Join the choir, band or orchestra. Join the tech club or reading club or something that many people like, and that you're most likely able to find a friend there. Learn to crack jokes or watch other shows that people are into. Play a sport or sports, even if it's golf or football, just get into something. At lunch go sit with some other people who aren't sitting with a lot of others, start a conversation. Crack jokes to make even the people that hate you laugh. And don't worry, e-friends are a great start, talk to people like us and we can share common interests. And going to the movies alone, that's actually not so bad, maybe you'll find a few people from school and just because they've seen you before they might want to hang out with you to get closer to people they recognize.

I do not think a pokemon club will help him get friends tbh. But yes, talk to people and smile often.

When i went through hard times with friends and i was on my own every break and lunchtimes i would sit in the library on the computer, listen to my ipod or i would read.
Go and make conversation with someone you wouldnt usually talk too/ hang around with. You might suprise yourself.
I know its horrible, but it wont be like this forever. :hug:
