[QUOTE=hl2poo;22808512]It feels bad when a girl you have a crush on is more social and outgoing than you are. :frown:[/QUOTE] From experience, it sucks more than that when you actually date the girl. You get forced into events and parties and such with people you'd rather not hang around, then you meet this guy she says is like a brother to her, so you figure "Hey, this guy can be my stepping stone to a social life!" So, you invite him over, he's a pretty cool guy, hang out a while, then your gf starts hanging out with him too, inviting him everywhere you go, then, next thing you know, he fucks your girlfriend on your birthday and you become emotionally dead for a few days and spend the next year recovering. But yeah, I'm the same as OP. [editline]11:38PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Edward Norton;22809115]I'm boring as fuckkk. I'm just silent, when people ask or talk to me.. I just answer and that's it. Fuckkk I'm so screwed. Wish I could be one of those who can talk about anything and have good conversations.[/QUOTE] Maybe you should start some kind of club where dudes have fist fight, I'm just sayin.
Time you enjoyed wasting was not wasted.
Just call up your friends and hang out. It's really not that hard. Just find out where the parties are, go with a couple of friends and have fun. Seriously your only wasting your own time if you don't do anything about it.
I have the same problem as you and i get invited to 1 party a year a mate from primary school i've known for ages and its go-karting and sleepover. (No alcohol) Even though 'one attends private education' people still think getting drunk and having sex at 15 is cool. And year 9s who are 13/14 years old. Disgusting.
[QUOTE=Within;22809900]Time you enjoyed wasting was not wasted.[/QUOTE] I agree with this but in some cases, people only say it because they don't know what they're missing.
I'll be your friend OP!
Don't whine about it, take initiative and try and change it.
[QUOTE=soderholm13;22808346]If you live close to a big-ish forest; 1. Get a paintball gun / soft air gun 2. Make a Ghillie suit 3. Get some friends to get paintball / soft air guns 4.

Yeah, I used to have a shit ton of friends before I moved. And I knew them all since like the 1st grade. Now I moved across the country to las vegas. Everyones thing around here is party, and get fucking wasted. And the occasional party, get wasted, get your fucking ass pounded in a fight. Thats why I don't go to the parties, even though my friends tell me all the time that Id get laid every weekend if I went..
Add me On steam, Ill be your friend <3

Holy shit. I feel the exact same way. There is literally no difference. I have mood swings too, like when I bought a new game, such as AC2, or Metro 2033, I was like FUCK YEAH WOOO....then once I finished the game, I got bored, and was like "fuck I have no life, what a loser I am". Then the next day I wake up I don't give a shit, but then I start my PC, browse facebook and all those feelings come back, and then I listen to music and fantasize about me playing that song on a huge stage and it makes me feel better.
OP has same feelings I do.

[QUOTE=Callitenvy;22807954]I feel like I'm the only one not going to parties, hanging out with friends, or just plain having fun. I feel like I have no social life, I've never really had one but I didn't care until now for some reason. I don't know what to do. I'm tired of playing games all day, they all just don't interest me anymore. This is the first time I ever felt like this, other summers I didn't mind playing games all day. I have friends, but we're slowly drifting apart ever since summer started. Most days I just go outside and sit on my porch, staring at cars passing by. I hate this feeling of being left out, I have this feeling everyday. I can't stand another day of summer. First thing I think of when I wake up is "I can't wait till today ends". 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. Perhaps its just reading all those facebook status' of my friends and what they are doing, while I'm just here. I just wish I didn't care, or atleast hung out with my old friends, or maybe even make new ones.[/QUOTE] hey man your not alone :)
make friends
[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. 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] no man! ask that guy if he wants to hang out, show him that you're not just a "school friend" you can make it work and whoop you have a new buddy :buddy:
I swear, you people are in my head.

[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] Some 'friends' they are then. Any real friend would ring you and ask you to do things with them. You shouldn't put people first when they don't put you first.
Make your own fun, talk to random people; anything. If you have nothing to lose you'll need to take all opportunities.
I was a street fundraiser for 1 year and travelled the UK doing it, I've talked to more random people in my life than you could ever imagine, and also had a lot of fun doing it. I win this thread [editline]02:37AM[/editline] I thought the post above me was the first post. what a fail, disregard this completely, I'm cunted
The agree ratings oh god.
There's a reason why we're all on facepunch. [editline]09:13PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Dark-Energy;22810834]Holy shit. I feel the exact same way. There is literally no difference.

This is true about me in every way.
it seems all the new guys are losers we're breeding a bad year here

Wish I could be one of those who can talk about anything and have good conversations.[/QUOTE] Dude I used to be like that. One day I just said fuck it. Honestly force yourself to hang out with people you don't know. Another hint, listen and watch A LOT of comedy. It'll help with kind of easing yourself in when people talk and kind of being the "funny guy"
I can't stand parties nor can I go anywhere unless there's a toilet nearby thanks to having ulcerative colitis which is an inflamed bowel disease so unless I know for a fact that I can get to a toilet as and when I need to I just stay at home so count yourselves lucky that you're not stuck with some incurable disease that fucks with your bowels.
At least you have partial friends during summer break, I'm still at school and even there I don't have any friends. People just use me for shit then move on like today a bunch of people used me to get transformice on the school computers and then wouldn't let me play with them and just told me to fuck off. I felt like shit just sitting there in a computer class with no work listening to everyone having fun. I played magic with some guys once (like 4 of us) they then insulted me and told me to go away. During class I can do my work I just have stopped trying and all my teachers have had the whole "You're really good stop being so lazy". I guess I just don't have the drive for anything anymore. Last long holidays I almost committed suicide because I felt so lonely :\. So just stop feeling so down and have fun, why goto parties when its just a bunch of drunk fuckwits. When school starts back up just make friends with people that will always hang with you.

Felt like this a summer a few years back. If you make an effort you'll get a social life. I started out by just hanging out with like 3 people but you meet more over time etc etc
