it has really just dawned on me recently that i have no friends. i'm tired of being alone and doing things by myself. i want to go and meet people but i don't want to go out by myself. another catch 22.
Hey, I know this blog entry is about a month old but I just joined a few days ago and would like to respond because I can completely relate. I have a lot of acquaintances but I don't have anyone close in my life. I do things by myself to pass the time but I wish I had some close girlfriends or guy friends who I could do things with. Just a suggestion, you may already know about this, but there is this website called meetup.com and basically its a way to meet new people in your area. There are different groups you can join that cater to different interests and they have get togethers locally. There is even a New York City Social Anxiety group which I have attended. Hope this is helpful.
I feel for you man. I didn't have friends for a while. But I somehow made some at work and then later a t school. Not really sure how I did it. Something to do with asking the G man for help. I know it sounds like a load of horse shit, but that's what I did, and I got friends now.
