Lel ur loser irl. But seriously get a gf, don't like how you look? Change. Work out. Brush your teeth, have good hygiene. Actually try to dress nice, have a confident vibe. Bam ur not a ****** anymore.

First you don't need a girlfriend to not be lonely.

Second if you have to change your look/attitude drastically than your girlfriend is probably not for you.

And Supah, how much time do you spend with family? People at school may reject you, but your family is always with you! (Unless there are circumstances like divorces, drugs, etc involved.)  

stop crying and feeling down on yourself. This may sound like me being a ****, but honestly, how is complaining about it going to make it better? You're asking a community that has by far proven to be highly immature and highly unsocially accepted for advice?

You want friends? Make them. You lack confidence? Get some. All of this is in your mind, people can give you advice and tips but the only time it will ever change is when you look in the mirror, accept that not everyone is going to like you and walk out your front door with a smile on your face and welcome those that do. I swear, I don't know how people can feel lonely in this time of humanity. Ffs go find someone else that feels lonely and make them happy as well.

You only live once, don't live feeling self loathing  

Chime in with others. Meet your friend's friends. Laugh at your insults. And be you. Your are a good guy.  

It's all in your head. There is one acceptable reason as to why you can't express your feelings towards others, and that reason is because you're telling yourself, I can't talk to that person because I'm too shy. Then, you don't talk to them because you think you're too shy. It's a vicious circle, and it won't stop until you start. Shyness is in your head. How can you expect to progress when you keep telling yourself you're too shy or you're not socially adept and do nothing? If you overhear someone talking about something you know anything about, say something. It's not hard at all to find someone with common interests. Just go out there and meet people. You can't expect other people to meet you. You have to do it yourself.

Get out of your comfort zone. It's not that bad. Give it a shot, you'll surprise yourself.  

As true as it can get. Just go out there and surprise your self. Whats the worst that can happen?  

This guys actually starting to get annoying with his sob stories. No one cares if you're lonely. You need to man up.  

Haven't really read this thread but people should recognize the difference between feeling lonely and being alone.

Lol what a deek but I also agree



note: theres a difference between friends and acquaintances. 95% of people you consider friends are actually acquaintances, your only friends are the ones that are really there for you when you need them and does are rare to find.  

Introvert alert.

Introvert alert.

How many extroverts do you think there really are on Graal rather than the self-proclaimed ones? My guess would be not a whole lot... I wouldn't even consider myself to be an extrovert, yet from don't believe I'm a complete introvert since I like to use qualities of both spectrums. (Extrovert via confidence, introvert via interests, etc. There are many more qualities I can embody from both.) But I highly doubt that most of us here are strongly outgoing ourselves. Plus there's a lot of benefits of being introverted that no one ever talks about. Society just likes to paint a negative image on things they don't understand. It's easy to get caught in the fallacy that introversion is always a harmful thing.

My sob stories? Do you even see me crying? And your right yep no one cares but I'm sharing it anyway. Problem? Then you know theres a lot more threads then this one.

As for all the others being 17 and an introvert isin't exactly what I want. I mean I know when I start college in the fall of this year I'm going have to speak up. Sure as Talon said yes its in my head but sadly that is how my mindset is. For all who said I'm annoying, I apologize but I just need to express how I feel because in all honestly it's annoying me myself how shy I get around people I never met.

Heh, you have have the wrong idea about what college is. There is in fact LESS pressure to 'speak up'. No one cares if you lock yourself in your room to study or play games.

I am of the opposite opinion from most of the replies in this thread. I still think that you are better off realizing that there is nothing wrong with you and be happy, instead of trying to drastically change the person that you are.

However, I completely understand why you are concerned. I had many of the same concerns when I was in high school because of the awful ideals of most high schoolers. It didn't help that I am asexual, and could not understand my peers, to whom sexuality was such an important factor in their lives. But like I said, things got a lot better when I got out of school.

I never said it was a bad thing. I am introverted myself.
Everyone is over analyzing his "I'm lonely" behavior when its just typical introversion.
