I feel like I'm missing out - General

[QUOTE=hl2poo;22808512]It feels bad when a girl you have a crush on is more social and outgoing than you are. :frown:[/QUOTE] What the fuck, are you me?

[QUOTE=Callitenvy;22807954] The worst part is I have mood swings, one minute I'm like "fuck yeah who cares if I just play games all day", then the next second I'm like "god dammit, I feel like a loser". I'm not saying I'm not a loser, but I've never really cared before if I was or not, now I do.[/QUOTE] It's called being in puberty.

I feel the same thing.

[QUOTE=hl2poo;22808512]It feels bad when a girl you have a crush on is more social and outgoing than you are. :frown:[/QUOTE] Erhm isn't that like every girl :v: . [editline]12:51AM[/editline] Oh yeah how I solved it: I stopped caring.

[QUOTE=Gregah;22808570]It's called being in puberty.[/QUOTE] It's also called anxiety

Clean yourself up, Get a haircut if you have long hair, Get rid of any acne, Make yourself look nice, Get a Girlfriend, Have her introduce you to a social life and all her friends, Get more friends along the way. Worked for me.

[QUOTE=Callitenvy;22808557]What the fuck, are you me?[/QUOTE] get a self-help book or something.

[QUOTE=hl2poo;22808512]It feels bad when a girl you have a crush on is more social and outgoing than you are. :frown:[/QUOTE] This is true, but I don't feel bad about it. All girls have to do is look pretty and everyone likes them. With people like us it's complicated. That's how I rationalise it anyway.

[QUOTE=massaki;22808616]Get a haircut if you have long hair[/QUOTE] I just did :v: I went from about 40cm long hair to... 7 or something now. Still feels incredibly weird, but it was worth it

[QUOTE=hl2poo;22808512]It feels bad when a girl you have a crush on is more social and outgoing than you are. :frown:[/QUOTE] Fuckin' THIS.

I'm exactly the same, except that I've learnt not to care as much as I did before.

OP needs to go out and find women.

I can feel for you. But I'm not like that anymore. I quit the endless cycle of not-going-anywhere last year. Tomorrow a night at the bar with friends is imminent, in the weekend, I'll go to an 18th birthday, and immediately after that, I'll attend a week-long music festival, staying there in a tent. Life's amazing.

I feel left out from parties sometimes, and even a social life in general, I have my close friends who I see all the time but we aren't the sort of guys who have parties, I want to hang out with the people who do have parties. Something that was quite dissapointing was that after taking a risk a couple of years ago and trying to befriend what I considered to be the "cool crowd" at school was very successful, I hang out with these guys all the time... at school, I never get invited out. And a couple of weeks ago it was the last day of high school, and the guy who i was most friends with from that group, who I thought I had a really strong friendship with, just said "so... I'll talk to you on steam and stuff I guess" The problem isn't that I don't know people, it's that they all see me as a "friend from school" and it doesn't even cross their mind that I may want to hang out with them outside of school, they just don't see me like that.

[QUOTE=hl2poo;22808512]It feels bad when a girl you have a crush on is more social and outgoing than you are. :frown:[/QUOTE] :( edit: Screw this. You're dragging me down. I think positive about my life and negative about everything else. Gaming is what i love the most so i am living my life to the fullest?

Fucking nerds.

[QUOTE=Gregah;22808806]Stop being a wuss and ask if they want to hang out, they can't read your mind...[/QUOTE] yeah I know. I get the feeling that because they see me like that though, they would be wierded out when I ask to hang out, and then that may put them off further. I guess if they're put off by me asking to hang out then I don't really need them as a friend though. So fuck them.

[QUOTE=hl2poo;22808128]Holy fucking shit OP that's exactly how I feel this summer. I read my facebook and all my friends are hanging out at the beach together having fun while I'm just sitting here on the computer surfing the internet and playing Arma II. It feels horrible.[/QUOTE] Same here. :frown:

OP, don't worry. As soon as you turn 18, you'll become popular. Invite people round your flat / apartment, hold parties with just a few mates, then gradually get em bigger. Always fucking works.

i thought this last summer you know what i did? started going out and doing stuff with friends and guess what life got 100x better

I feel the exact same way.... I can't wait for school to start up again this August... But think of it this way, if you sit on your front porch all summer, you'll have a tan by the time school starts!

I'd write a story about my fixation on the same amazing girl for 4 years and how my existence has made no impact on her life at all, but I'm on my iPod Touch and don't have the patience.

[QUOTE=lettuce_head;22808869]yeah I know. I get the feeling that because they see me like that though, they would be wierded out when I ask to hang out, and then that may put them off further.

So fuck them.[/QUOTE] You won't know what they think if you don't ask them to hang out, you can't expect to make friends outside of school if you won't take some initiative.

If it's any consellation, I go out to parties and social gatherings but I always feel like I was a pity invite, even though my friends genuinely want me there.

[QUOTE=MingusMajor;22808800]Fucking nerds.[/QUOTE] Go back to your roleplaying boy.

[QUOTE=triFeral;22807989]Call some people and ask if you can hang out with them. Don't be afraid of being rejected.[/QUOTE] Yeah for sure, if they turn you down then fuck 'em. People admire confidence sometimes.

Same boat mate same.....Things like this made me wish i had powers to do everything i want.

Smoke weed. Erry day.
