I've spent the last 18 years living in american society. You have way to much angst man. Seriously you need to stop caring so much about other people. And stop condemning them before you even get to know them. If someone gives you a hard time and insults your interests, fuck 'em. They're not getting all hung up on it. Their loss, not yours. Haters gonna hate.

I've also spent nearly 18 years in American society, it's only since high school started that it actually got shitty. Before high school I had lots of friends and the amazing part is I actually talked to girls. Then high school comes around and everyone changes. Everything is all fine for most of 9th grade, I start getting into metal and airsoft, I'm not really losing any friends over it but I've gained my closest friends because of it. Then dumb bitch pretends to like me, I ask her out over Facebook during the summer (huge mistake I admit) and get rejected hard. I also cut myself for a little bit then but nobody ever found out about that. Suddenly, I've become a near total outcast. I think girls are actually afraid to talk to me now in case the same thing happens to them.

It's honestly not completely my fault, we can mostly blame some stupid skank for it.
All of that over one girl?
Try dating people from other schools?
[QUOTE=deathmog;32380827]All of that over one girl?

I honestly have no way to meet people from other schools. I mean it's not like there's anything of interest to me I can go out and do here other than airsoft, but the local season is going to be over soon and I don't even have any working guns or anything. Plus the chances of meeting a teenage girl playing airsoft are almost non existent anyway. All the teenagers here hang out at the mall (boring as fuck) or go to parties and I'm not cool enough to go to parties. So I'm kind of limited to dating girls from my school unfortunately.
1) Gonna go ahead and say that Canadian society is different than US society
2) Don't ask people out over the internet/phone/text/not in person ever. Always ask people out in person, face to face.
3) Sounds to me like you changed, not everyone else.
4) You can't go around blaming everything on everyone else and expecting things to get better or change. To tell you the truth, no one really cares. They're not out to make you an outcast or victimize you. They may make fun of you because you're different, but that's about as far as their thought process goes.
Pro tip: it's a proven fact that high school sucks dick. It's not the end of the world. The people who make high school "the best time of their life" only get as far as high school.

No, it's you.
You're trying to find some reason, someone to blame, but it's your fault.
Puberty changes things, you changed and your friends change. Teenage love is not love, it's teenage drama. Lower your standards, go outside, grab some coffee or something and hang out and some local spots, meet people, become social.
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;32380963]All the teenagers here hang out at the mall (boring as fuck)[/QUOTE]
The mall is boring as fuck, but my girlfriend likes it, so I can tolerate it because it makes her happy. If you think you're going to find a girl who has 100% same interests as you, you've got another thing coming. All relationships have compromise. Even the "perfect girl" isn't actually "perfect"
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;32380963]or go to parties and I'm not cool enough to go to parties[/QUOTE]
Dude, if you wanna go to the parties, just go. Not being "cool enough" is completely subjective.
Although, I'm gonna go ahead and assume there's 100 other reasons you won't go to the parties though
[QUOTE=mysteryman;32381151]Lower your standards, go outside, grab some coffee or something and hang out and some local spots, meet people, become social.[/QUOTE]
But this place is FUCKING BORING. What do you not understand about that? You have to be 18 here to have fun because then you can get into bars, but bars are still probably boring as fuck unless you go with friends. Everything is just shit here.

The only difference is we have free healthcare and are more tolerant of minority groups.

I don't even know where the parties are and I have nobody to ask where parties are and I doubt anyone wants me at their parties because I won't drink and be depressing as fuck and bring everyone down. It sounds fucking boring anyway, be locked in a crowded house with a bunch of people you don't know who are all drunk, all the while shitty music is playing.
Dude. Seriously. If you keep telling yourself everything is shit, it will be.
Saying that the only way to have fun is to be 18 so you can go to the bar is just down right stupid. There's so much shit you can do. I guarantee it. Go to a music festival, go to a coffee shop, go do stupid shit with your friends, go to a music store and look at all the music, go to a museum, go to an art gallery, GO OUTSIDE AND DO SOMETHING. Obviously not everything is going to be right in your town. You have to make an effort to get out and have fun. It's not going to come to you. If you expect good things to just 'happen' to you, you're going to be waiting an awfully long time.
I got a new avatar.
Heard an commercial for a show called "the sing off" and the announcer was all like "when you've got a voice this good, who needs instruments" all while the people singing have their voices drenched in autotune and voice filters. And there's a drumset in the background

I'm sorry but all that shit just sounds fucking boring. Like the rest of the world.
hhhhnnnnnnngggggggghhhhhhhhhhh
"Everything is boring"
"here are examples of things you can do for fun"
"thats boring too"
Why do I even care anymore? You almost have to be a hokcey player to get a girlfriend here and the ones that don't like hockey players are either lesbians or have boyfriends already.

That show is so stupid. We had to watch it every week last year in my music class and I hated it, but everyone else was obsessed with it and wouldn't shut up about it.

Stop generalizing things.

Just be gay. Problem solved
/sarcasm because you've frustrated the fuck out of me
Well there's one girl who's not a total idiot. She's smart and decent looking. I don't know if she has a boyfriend or not. But the idea of actually talking to her scares the shit out of me because I literally have no reason to even have anything to do with her and I really don't want to come across as creepy, which is really hard for me in the first place.
No wonder your life is boring as hell. You knock everything as stupid or boring before you even bother looking into it. You complain about all this shit, we try to help you, you shove away any suggestions you're given, then complain keep complaining. From what I can tell you've made absolutely no effort to change your situation. IT'S NOT GOING TO CHANGE FOR YOU. You have to do it yourself. This also means you have to GO OUT AND TRY NEW THINGS :gasp: If you knock everything before you try it, nothing is ever going to get better for you
Edit: didn't see the new post.
Just go and introduce yourself politely. That's perfectly normal.
"Hi, I'm <insert name here>. What's your name?"
Avoid stupid pickup lines and just be polite and friendly and you'll be fine.

Well we already somewhat know each other I think. We had a class together a couple years ago and she added me on Facebook. But yeah I haven't ever talked to her since then.
So I got a checking account a week ago, just got the check card for it, and have already bought an M15 gas mask for my Halloween costume and Super Mario 64 for my girly.
So talk to her. Talk about life, talk about music, ask her about her interests, ask her what she thinks about things (girls love that). Just talk to her. Get to know her

You are the most calm, patient bro I've ever met. Thank you for being able to handle him.
Taep, I'm not saying you're horrible. I'm just a blunt ass.
[QUOTE=felix the cat;32381950]So talk to her. Talk about life, talk about music, ask her about her interests, ask her what she thinks about things (girls love that). Just talk to her.

I wish I still played airsoft so I could be a little less boring. But I should be getting back into it again in the spring.
Well, technically music must be made with a musical instrument.
Felix is such a bro in real life too

I guarantee that you'll be able to find something to talk about. And again, just talk to her. If you don't talk to her, it's a certainty that nothing will happen. Worry about running out of shit to talk to when you get there, not before. There's Always something to talk about.

What if she asks me what I do for fun? Do I tell the truth about sitting in front of the computer all day? Do I make up some total bullshit lie? Or do I say something believable like "I play airsoft but the airsoft season is over right now" even though I haven't played airsoft for a year and probably won't again until the end of May.
yes
