No Friends

I don't have friends anymore. I never had a lot, but few close friends. After high school I lost touch with all of them. Now I'm in college and it is hard to meet anyone due to my SA. Plus there are different people in all my classes. I don't have anyone to hang out with or go see movies with. I thought it might be easy to meet people here who understand and possibly meet in person, but I can't seem to find people in Massachusetts. Any one have suggestions?

Hi SilentMike, I hear ya. I know how awful it is to feel like you don't have any friends or any way to make friends. Have you thought about talking out some of this anxiety with a professional? A great place to go to find a therapist is http://www.goodtherapy.org ...They believe it’s possible to heal and they have counselors all over the world.

Same boat, all I have is my boyfriend and a few associated friends through him, but no one to talk to or hang out with. All my old friends are over 500 miles away.

for more then one year ive had no friends, lost contact with my two friends from school days, because i didnt go to a certain party, i dont blame them for not wanting to know me anymore, its no fun for them.

it can be difficult when people bring it up in conversation, family will say "going out with friends on the weekend" ....i just escape by saying "perhaps" .."nothing concrete" ...vague replies usually work.

I really tried to make friends with this girl at work, but i found it so difficult to not be awkward, sometimes i just rambled and probably wasnt making enough of an impression for her to show interest back.

we would get along and then suddenly i'd say something (unintentionally) silly! and someone more interesting would walk into the room so the attention turns to them straight away, even if we're int he middle of a convo.

its not easy joining in with a clique who are tight! especially with people in their early twenties have booming social lives.

My main qualm is that i can;t seem to talk any sense in the heat of the moment, and its really getting me down. =(
