[QUOTE=BlueFlash;22821598]...Are you me? The girl I like has incredibly strict parents and they don't let her do anything not school organized. It probably doesn't help that her parents found and read the entire chatlog of our IMs from when we were dating though.[/QUOTE]
Of course I am. But you sorta had that coming, if one of you kept the chatlogs. Unless of course, she's forced to. But you can still go and delete them.
[QUOTE=hl2poo;22808512]It feels bad when a girl you have a crush on is more social and outgoing than you are.
:frown:[/QUOTE]
You're supposed to be as outgoing as her. Also Confidence.
We should get everyone who feels like this and have a party of our own.
Same here, dude. But honestly, you are the problem, not everyone else. Your friends wont ask you out if they think you dont want to go out. You have to make a effort. I am actually so sick of it that I am actively trying to change my life now. I have started working out, I just asked my two friends who I have not completely aliened to hang out and I am joining to a party this weekend and already I am starting to feel better about myself.
So yes, your life sucks but you have to be the one to change it because no one else will.
Theres only one way out of this catastrophe. Enlarge your penis.
Never go outside
Stay home playing my fucking hobby all day every day
Don't give a shit
Feel glorious.
[QUOTE=dookster;22820333]Actually, someone suggested cutting your hair if it's long.
Trust me, that's gold.
I had medium to long hair for two years and literally only had two friends and was never invited to any parties or outings. I'd constantly attempt to be noticed by the people I wanted to be friends with but the majority of them thought I was just weird or annoying.
Then, being sick of not having more friends and no proper social life, I cut it all off. My self esteem went through the roof and suddenly EVERYONE was my friend.
The group I wanted to be friends with? They started trying to get me to notice them.
Parties? I was invited to 5 consecutive different parties 3 days after cutting my hair.
I reckon people take long hair on guys as being "The Wannabe Loner".[/QUOTE]
This is actually kinda true. I used to have long hair and wasn't so sure about myself, none of the girls paid any attention to me. After having it cut I felt like I could start again and whaddaya know, a week or two after that I had a girlfriend.
Sometimes it's just a mental block that you have to overcome, after the first step it's a lot easier.
[QUOTE=Flaming Neko;22819709]Start making models for TF2 or make some maps.[/QUOTE]
This. Seriously, I can play any game for a few hours, then start feeling really depressed. I hop in Maya or Hammer and start making shit and I feel a lot better. If you can actually get to a stage where you can make things that look really good, post it to Facebook, start working on it at school.. it should bring your confidence up when people go "wow, you made [B]that![/B]"
It can also be a way to start conversations. You don't know how many people have seen me working on a map at school, watched me for a minute as I worked, then started a conversation (occasionally I'd start it if they didn't say anything after a minute or two)
But in a broader way, find your passion (mine would be level design) and don't be afraid to show it off, especially if it's a more unique passion.
So? Call on some of your friends and see if they want to hang out. That should get you closer to them.
I would hang out with my friends but they're basically all like me, they never go out, they just sit by the computer all day long, and they don't know anyone else. I used to have some friends that I could do stuff with but we're kind of separated now and they have other, better, more fun friends.
I'm sitting on the same chair as you buddy. I take antidepressant, i never get out unless i have to visit the psychologist. My friends are drifting apart, they never respond to MSN or Steam. I suffer from stuttering so i have a hard time finding new friends or even talk to my current ones.
If you want to do something but aren't getting invited, perhaps you should try organising something yourself.
Besides, it might not look great now, but something fun will come along at some point.

I would make another "get out of my brain!" comment, but then I realise that most people are more outgoing than me so if I have a crush on anyone, I'm going to have those sad feelings.
I hate it when after the summer someone asks you what you did and you just stand there are go "Ummmm" and try and make up something interesting...
OH NOES!
Seriously but, same. But hey, who gives a fuck man?
Youl'll get over it or go crazy. Sorta did the both meself. BUT EY. I ain't give fuck.
I have kind of the same feeling, but it's because all my friends are either on vacation or working right now, and I'm the only one who has free time all day.
[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]
Protip: Invite some friends over and stop playing ARMA.
[editline]04:43PM[/editline]
I love how everyone tries to justify sitting on their ass all day and not even attempting to build a social life.
Same feeling here, also i have some kind of spazz in my whole body wich almost makes me drop my fucking pint when im holding one on parties, it feels so weird and i'm scared to go out with friends and i always make up stupid excuses.... i dont know what to do, i feel so limited physically because i cant control my body. How do i explain this... pff
[editline]06:46PM[/editline]
and im always so fucking nervous when im around new people... girls or guys. but ofcourse more with girls
[editline]06:51PM[/editline]
today i had to go try out contact lenses because i want to get fucking rid of these ugly ass glasses and i failed so miserably. i cant steady my hand properly wich causes some awkward situations like that.
[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]
Glad I'm not alone. :smile:
It's cool to know a lot of us here are alike, makes me feel a bit better.
Also i think i have wrong friends or something... i want to go to big drum and bass events but my friends dont like that kind of music...
I don't really feel like this anymore. I'll play some games in the morning, then during the day hang out with either my friends or girlfriend, then I'll end up playing more games until like 3 am.
Actually it's been pretty fun like this.
[QUOTE=gokulol;22808100]This. If you've already given people the image that you're introverted, they probably won't invite you anywhere. Just call up some of your friends and ask them if they wanna hang.[/QUOTE]
I do this often but not enough, asking if they wanna go somewhere does wonders.
Exactly how I feel. I just want to go out and go random places and meet new people. I hate being stuck inside the house.
[QUOTE=MingusMajor;22808800]Fucking nerds.[/QUOTE]
Look everyone, this guy thinks he's not a nerd (while posting on an internet video game forum), LOL
Go to some parties, drink shitloads of alcohol, take drugs, get hit in the face by some sucker and then wake up the next morning hungover and wounded. Thats your social life.
...um...I for one like being away from other people during the summer. Then again, you just probably don't have to deal with the same 29 idiots for an entire school year. (I got a private school for kids with learning differences, my senior class size is 29 students)
ITT: We are all each other.
All my friends are not in town or just with their family. I just wanna go out and fucking do something!
This is exactly how I fucking feel, and it doesn't help that all my friends have abandoned me.
