frustrated with friends


Question Posted Thursday May 15 2008, 10:59 pm

15/f
i tend to live in my own little world, but i'm open with people, friendly, and fun. recently i've felt distant from my friends, detached in a way. it's as if i can't connect with them, and it's really frustrating. i feel like i'm not having fun the way i am, and i don't want to go to crazy parties (i don't want to drink.)
but i also feel like i'm missing out in the highschool experience by creating myself and doing research on random things and being a weird little person

i don't feel like i can call any of my friends "best friends" like i used to with my other friends, and i feel like my relationships are weak. how can i stop feeling like this? we have fun with each other, i just feel like something's missing. thanks =]

your not missing out on the highschool experience. the highschool experience is what you make it. there are no standards. but i guess to stop feeling like this what you could maybe do is meet some new people or get a new hobby like a sport or club. maybe its just a phase and it will go away in a little. and sometimes being in your world is a good thing. id rather be in my own world than be doing the stupid stuff thats goign to mess up lives. (drinking drugs sex) etc. i really hope i helped and that you feel better

Well lets think about this... i live in my own little world as well. i very open-minded with people,friendly, and fun. Yes you are detaching your self, not from them but their behavior. This is a good thing because it creates your own individual self, uninfluenced by others. You can connect with them you just have to research harder than others to do this because drinking and parting is made easy for people to connect. So if you take that away you have to dig deeper into each person to find what it is that really excites you about them. Maybe it boweling, swiming, softball, what ever the case people have more to them than just regular social meetings. your not missing out on knoweldge because knoweldge is power and everyone else will be feeding off you when you get older. Most people only end up with 1 or 2 "Best Friends" anyways, the rest move on and do their own thing. This is the nature of life. You are weak because u have seperated yourself from the negitive influence. All you need to do is find that thing in each person that gives you that thrill and vibe back to feel emotionally connected. If you don't do this soon it can lead to depression and once that sets in it can be really hard to recover from. Start by looking at the positive in everything and leave out the negetives.

Hope this helps,
