steveT95 Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 I have no one. The only people I spend time with outside of college are my parents. The only people that talk to me in college are the teachers. I wasn't a loser at college before, people used to talk to me, a fair few girls fancied me. But I was never properly friends with anyone except one girl, who became my girlfriend, and then my ex. I am depressed, yes, but I can switch it off around people so I don't drag others down. I am planning on talking to more people at college but there is only two groups of people. One group that hangs out is massive, at least twenty people usually more and I hate big groups. The other group, the people that I get on with, are my exes friends. I'm sure they wouldn't mind talking with me if she wasn't there but I can't be friends with them. The most exciting thing I have done in the last month or so is walk my dog. I miss the conversations I used to have with my ex and just want someone to talk to. Suggestions? I really don't want to join any clubs because I have tried clubs and hate joining the a new club and someone always ruins it for me, usually the person that runs the club.
Esoteric Elf Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 I have zero friends. I have loads of good acquaintances. Some people just don't care all that much for doing things beyond normal, superficial interactions (though I have done a few outings). I like to talk to them and they I, but as to going further, that happens only on occasion, and it is not something I actively seek. Perhaps you are the same way.
Roadkill007 Posted April 16, 2013 Posted April 16, 2013 Maybe try to talk a bit more with people in your major-related classes? I picked up a couple of good friends that way, and the best thing is that it's also networking, to a degree!
Author steveT95 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Posted April 16, 2013 Well day off today so haven't seen anyone or heard from anyone. Some people I find get tiring because I am fed up with it been me doing all the work in a friendship. It has always been like that since I was 4. Messaged a girl on fb just for a chat but it's awkward and blergh because I've become so distant from everyone since been in a relationship.
Author steveT95 Posted April 17, 2013 Author Posted April 17, 2013 Yeah, and I do occasionally, but it is not the same.

pink_sugar Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 I have a few good friends, but they are all often busy or live too far to hang out frequently. When I finish up college (online) I want to get more involved so I can make more friends.
Author steveT95 Posted April 17, 2013 Author Posted April 17, 2013 Yeah same. I feel like I've got very little chance to socialise at college. I'm in the british version so I guess it's high school if you're a yank. Seems anyone with the same interests as me are older so won't be interested in hanging out. Plus I'm not at college during lunch hours because I do less lessons than everyone else. Grkboy- Sounds funny, but the video won't play in the UK
