It really isn't very enjoyable being lonely. It justs make me depressed and insecure. I feel like I don't even like myself anymore. It's not like I haven't tried to make friends. I have for six years. I did join club sat school , since about first grade. I recently was enrollled in a school club where my alleged friend goes three of four months without speaking to me- answering texts, calling me, talking via facebook or anything. Just flat out ignores me.

Honestly I'm not suree what to do. Maybe I am just incabable of making friends ? Anyway <, I'm extremely shy and it's very difficult for me to talk to people, let alone make friends. I don't know how. And I do know people with a common interest to me.

I know girls who love ballet just as much as me, but no matter how hard I try to speak, I can't say anything to them. I'm so scared :/ Pathetic and idiotic, I know. I should grow up , that I know too. Am I mute ? Or mentally ill ? Why can't I make friends?

I took ballet all week for 6 hours and could barely speak because I am too shy. Is there any hope ? I just need someone. Someone to call all the time. Someone to always hang out with. But the girls at my school are already heavily involved in childish cliques, therefore I feel like I shoulddn't talk to them. Another thing is, I'm always waiting for the right time to talk, yet I plan it for days, but the words never come out.

Okay, that's enough. Rant/ venting or whatever you call it is over. Just felt like I needed to say how it is .

you shouldn't force yourself to make friends because that means you are not being yourself. Work hard on your ballet if it is your passion. People with the same interests will take notice and talk to you. Also about your shyness, I am not skill whatsoever on the human pyshc but some people don't like talking because of insecurities. if you feel most comfortable with ballet then start off talking about it and broaden your horizon. But the most important thing to do is relax. you are stressing way too much over making friends. it is better to have one really good friends than 100 fake ones, right? ;)

Well , I meant to reply to this a while ago . Anyway, is it nornsl that I plan everything ? That I plan who i am going to speak to , how loud my voice will be, what time I'll say it , what I'll say and how they will reply ? It's like a script ... I have it all planned out , but I still don't have friends .

I don't think it's weird, but I think that could be holding you back? If you are planning on what to say and something goes wrong, then that could make you close up and be quiet again?
