[QUOTE=Shoupie;22808014]Crash a funeral. I make all my good friends that way.[/QUOTE]
We crashed a wedding once because we thought it was a party. We managed to run but my friend had to persuade the people there that he would inject himself with a lethal amount of insulin (he's diabetic) to make them let him go.
True story.
All you have to do is be confident. Go out with some friends, find where other people you know are, be confident, and they'll flock to you by the droves.
I think I don´t have in real life friends for about a year now, I went to a party once with my friends and I was bored out of my brains after a few minutes. Further I never was the kid and later on the guy that invited people over or went to people their house, simply because I liked my time alone and at home a lot more.
After a while it began to wear me down, but only because the social norm is that at a certain age is that you have to go and with friends. Don´t let that bring you down, people are different, if you like being your own company be your own company. Don´t let people drag you down by saying otherwise.
Also what a bit of a problem for me is/was is that I can't find simply that interest me much, I like to have deep conversations and discussions about everything but also like to crack a joke while relaxingly playing a game. People are either way too dull or way too immature.
What I'm trying to say is: I've been there and sometimes it's not you being the problem but the state of mind of others that press on you like a dark cloud. Don't let it get to you.
Edit: Little side note: I did find 2 guys who are the most fun guys I have ever met, guess what? One lives on the other side of the country and the other one in the middle. I think I play with those guys for almost 2 years online now, we keep trying to meet in real life but that keeps messing up.
OP should adopt/buy a pet. Cats are friendly and dogs are playful.
Fuck that, adopt a kid.
1. Be all alone your whole life
2. Become a genius yet dark and moody poet, writing about the things you see outside your window.
3. Become famous after you die.
4. ?????????
5. PROFIT (wait never mind)
Same with me. I turned to anime and adventure. Don't worry! Acceptance will come in time! Maybe you just don't fit in for a reason. Me, I'm building an airship and plan to escape somewhere becasue I wasn't "socially adept". Therefore, I found it better to avoid society.
Facepunch == :smithicide:
You think that's depressing? I declined the invitation to go see a movie with friends because I didn't like the movie and I hate theaters. My mother saw my friends at the bus stop on the way home from work and made me feel like a complete loser, to the point where she will [I]force[/I] me to go next time.
[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]
If you have any friends left at all then arange to go out or do somthing with them. Then after a whilre they will start inviting you to social stuff.
my advice

PISS OF OUTTA HERE, go out and find some friends instead of posting about it here.
I feel the same way, OP. However, I just do something creative and it really helps to get my mind off it.

do you get hardons from ramsay gordon or something
If I wanted to be with friends I would, but I don't. I like to hang out with my girlfriend, but shes in Poland for another week then I'm going on vacation for two weeks. Sucks.
Yeah call up some friends and just hang out. Maybe they don't invite you to do stuff because they don't know your interested. I mean, if you were inviting people to a party, you probably wouldn't invite someone if they never ever like talk to you or anything. Just get into contact with them and hang out a bit and then you'll get closer and maybe get into some parties or shit.
Oh and if you think you need to work out and be cool and stuff to have friends or be friendly with people, not really true. I'm a fucking weirdo at school. Like I'm not annoyingly weird, I'm just purposefully awkward... in a good way. Yeah and I'm a nerd who had long hair so I looked like a weirdo too. Oh by the way, I cut my hair and I love short hair now. But if you look good with longer hair then go for it.

1. Get a paintball gun / soft air gun
2. Make a Ghillie suit
3. Get some friends to get paintball / soft air guns
4. Play
It's fun to be a stealthy asshole and sneak behind them and shoot them in their backs :ninja:[/QUOTE]
Ok you had had the forest part going and leading me to believing you were going to say "Host an awesome bonfire/rave" and then I read the rest. :geno:

OP *picks up phone*
*dials drifting away friends numbers*
*friend picks up*
YOU SAY: (yo/hey) lets do something today, its perfect weather for.. slip and slide/ pool/ basketball/baseball/ getting fucked up
I sometimes also feel like that :smith: It's fucking horrible.
Although right now I can't do anything since all of my friends are on vacation :saddowns:
This thread is just... :smith:
A 2 weeks-old thread bumped to remind many of what they are. Good job.
haha wow
you guys ripped on naviblue.com's users and then this guy gets agrees
sad
You are not missing out. People like to tell you you're missing out because they are beneath you. In reality we all sit at home and stare into space for a good chunk of our lives.

[QUOTE=hl2poo;22808512]It feels bad when a girl you have a crush on is more social and outgoing than you are.
:frown:[/QUOTE]
Holy shit, the girl started talking to me yesterday on Facebook and we talked for hours. I think she likes me. :smile:
What is thi social life you speak off? Is it moddable?
OT: Ring up your friends, talk to them, hang out with them, Party with them. It'll all work out for you buddy.
Out of curiosity, how old are you?
I only just got my social life back on track within the last month, after wasting another YEAR of my life on
...
..Runescape.. :ohdear:
But yeah, just ask a friend if he wants to go out somewhere, go to a local concert or something, from a fellow dork's point of view I know how you feel but it's kinda easy to get back to normal :D
And I don't go to parties because nobody has parties in my area x3
and if I was I wouldn't probably go seeing as I don't drink lul :smug:
The worst part about a situation like OP's is if he does all of a sudden grow a pair, many people will find it annoying to try and get into people's plans.
[b]If you don't ask, you're antisocial. If you do ask, you're annoying.[/b] It's tough.
The best advice I have, is to get a job. I know its hard to find work right now, but you interact with people all day and get paid for it.
Dear FPers,
Aren't most of us like the OP? I don't know about you guys, but I sure as hell am. It seems like now-a-days, it just gets harder and harder to pull ourselves away from the damned computers.
I, being 14, feel the same as the mass majority of people in this thread. I'm a social reject, and all I ever do is talk with people on facepunch and steam, wishing I had friends like this in Real Life.
I might just be a little immature kid venting his idiotic feelings, but I just needed to do it. Rate me dumb, disagree, or what ever. I really don't care, I just needed to get my word out.
