Why do I always feel so lonely?


Question Posted Sunday February 24 2008, 12:02 pm

I don't belong to a group in high school, I'm a floater. I'm just nice to everyone. I don't have a best friend anymore and I don't have a group of kids that I hang out with on a regular basis. I've never gone on a trip with my friends, I don't go shopping with them, I don't talk to anyone on the phone.

I'm outgoing, nice, and I can make anyone laugh. I play volleyball, I used to be a cheerleader for my school, and I'm in several clubs. I try to strike up conversation but it never lasts long. Everyone seems to have their best friends already and they're not willing to take me in. If I want to do something, I have to make the plans, and most of the time everyone else already has plans. I hate it. My mom constantly reminds me that I'm always alone.

I just want to fit in.
What should I do?

well, in your classes if you set next someone strike up a conversation with them
you'll see them every day so you'll most likely become friends
when starting out a conversation try with a joke this will become an inside joke so you'll always have something you both share
like i have a friend who was in my chorus class and we were singing at an old folks home and a cat came on the stage so, my friend jake starting poking her saying theirs a cat and i started saying that two her like every day and now were really good friends :)
hope i helped-fanfashion101

First of all, try and get out of the mindset that nobody wants to take you in. You can't expect to meet someone and instantly become best friends. But, with a little time and once they get to know you, I'm sure people will want to be best friends with you. Just don't push it, you know? Instead of always trying to make the plans, sit back and enjoy being alone sometimes. It sounds to me like you are already doing all the right things: you're social, in a lot of clubs, and talk to people. Just keep that going, but maybe step down a level. Let people come to you.
I hope it all works out for you. Good luck! =]
