I think I said before that we currently have temps starting where I work and they're the same kind of age as me, male and female. For a small part of the day they are sometimes ending up sat next to me alone (but doing something) while they're being trained. They're always on their own, it's...

Trying to be positive again... On Friday at 5pm onwards the pub was fairly busy and everyone was in their groups. I can't see how I'd ever get around that. I'm thinking that maybe I should pop round for a quick drink in my lunch hour. When I've been there at that kind of time it's always been...

Okay, so, (very) hypothetically and trying to think positively for five minutes... Friday and the weekend is coming around again. Where should I go to, well, meet girls/a girl? Sorry if that sounds a bit nasty. I mean it in a nice way, I'm not talking about a one night stand or anything. A pub...

If it's this hard to organise something then I'm surprised that anyone goes out at all. I've been trying to go out with this girl as a friend for weeks. It's not one sided, she says she wants to get together with me and "we so need to catch up" after we stopped working together a while ago...

Sorry if this should really go in the love and relationships section. In case you didn't see the other thread, a girl who I worked with and I like a lot has left. I've never been out with her socially. We talk a bit over the internet. She has a boyfriend though. So is there any way I can...

...if someone asks you what you like to do in your spare time, but you don't do anything much due to SA, what do you say instead of 'nothing'?

Posted here because it's not SA any more. What's going on? This is getting stupid now. This is what everything's come to. There are two girls, and I've talked about both on this forum. The first is the person who I can talk to the most and that's because she's been so nice to me. She appears...

...that I am going to seriously consider moving to a different country. One of the people I know from work has just posted some photos on Facebook. They're having fun - and what are they doing? Sitting around in the garden, with loads of fags and booze. Fantastic. All this talk of trying to...

I've just come back from a good time at work! It was just the two of us, and I actually talked to her, almost like a normal person. About proper stuff too :D Not that it was a massive amount but that was the most I've spoken to anyone, quite possibly ever, actually. She actually started talking...

Oh good, a new 'problem' :) So I am 20. My parents are in their sixties. My brother and sister are both older than me. We tend to go on holiday every year, but my sister stopped a few years ago now when she started living with her fiance. My brother still usually comes with us. This year we...

This is just some stuff I remember from when I was younger. It need to get it off my chest :) I wonder how much it has to do with how I am today. *lays down on the couch* I last had friends up to about 1999 at the very latest. I would have been 12 then. It was only a couple of people, and we...

...and what I guess they call rapport... how? Ten minute break at work this afternoon and I was standing outside alone with someone I work with. There would normally be someone else there, but they were off today. I tried to make a bit of conversation and it went okay. What we had for dinner...

When I go to work in the morning, I see people who I like. And I think how I would like to go out with them, at the weekend, whenever. The other day we went to the pub at lunch time again. It was nice. But when I come home at the end of the day - and it's nothing to do with my family at all -...

Every day I think about telling people that I want to be friends with them - over the internet when I come home, because then I could explain it properly. But how do you do it? How do you put it? Is it even a good or worthwhile idea? These are people who I see every day. Not just anyone. I want...

Please forgive me for the title. I just came back after going to the pub with some people after work. It was enough people that they were sat on a few tables. I sat there like an idiot on one for one and a half hours until I gave up and came home. I said nothing. Yes at first I was scared, but...

So I have the phone number from someone at work. Now, supposing I have something to chat about... when people phone each other for a chat, you check that they're not busy and are okay with talking and then go for it, yes? I've never actually been in possession of a phone number of someone who...

I think that this is starting to stray away from SP, but here goes. So last Saturday, I went out for a drink with some people from work. On the wave of optimism from that (!) I joined them at break times at work on Monday, and have been doing that all week, as I've been told that it's nice to...

I went out with some people from work yesterday. As I said, I would never have done that without you ;) I finished at 1:00pm, they were meeting up at 3:00pm, which I was there for. I had to go by 5:45pm anyway because the parking clock would run out. But after about 5:00pm, especially as it...

...oh my god oh my god oh my god... I just asked someone if they wanted to do something after work tomorrow (in the middle of the day, not a date, lol)... and I gave them my mobile number. Hate lying but I said there's no signal where I live, because there's no way I'd be able to talk normally...

Why can I not do this? It just always feels really wrong and that I'd be butting in. But you do don't you, how else can you join a group? It's the same whether it's standing outside or in the lunch room, or anywhere. I've been told that "when we go for our breaks you can come out with us" and...
