this will be kind of long but i really need help and will rate high. i basically have no life. i have friends but they all live so far and it's hard to make plans. someone always cancels, or i lose my ride, or something happens. i live in the middle of nowhere and attend a school outside my district. i spend my days and nights alone and i actually got a job so i could feel like i was out for at least a few hours every week. to be honest, i was hoping to make friends at the job but they gave me a job in the back of the store all by myself and that doesn't help either. i try to talk to people at my school and most of them just really don't care what i have to say. i guess i'm just not interesting. three of my friends i have not seen since they left my school and the two i do see are completely disappointing in the sense that they do nothing but emotionally harm me. i need to know how to meet people, and make more friends... i have no idea how to get out and socialize if i can't do that at work and school. i just need some advice because i feel like giving up on life. all i really want is someone i can hang out with when i'm not working to escape my pathetic excuse of a life... i don't understand why it's so hard. :-/ please help me.

Yes, it seems hopeless about 100% of the time, but you just have to keep trying. If you keep trying you'll always have a chance to get a life. In the meanwile you can try and find something that you enjoy and that makes you happy. One of the ways I escape is by doing this. Giving advice to people. Just keep trying.

beautifulcatastrophe answered Thursday January 5 2006, 6:59 pm: i think that the most you can do is just keep trying. everything in life is hard, and it just gets harder as more time passes..
do you have a sense of humor? if you do, use it! tell a joke. make someone laugh.
i guess, in a way, all it is is to just make yourself heard. invite someone to hang out with you. laugh at their jokes and agree or disagree with what they're saying.
im sure theyll like you. your definitly not uninteresting because i was interested by you.
hope i helped and it works out for the best.
leave one in my inbox if youd like.
