soooo bored!!!!!!!!


Question Posted Saturday July 12 2008, 6:01 pm

17/f. I'm an only child, and I don't have very many friends. I really have nothing to do....and I'm very, very bored. During the school year, I find my way around things to do, because I find out about parties, and then I go, and even if I don't have any friends, I still manage to talk to someone, or find a guy to dance with. So, it works out. It's summer, and I really don't find anything to do. I feel so alone. I know it seems like I'm exaggerating, but, maybe those of you who are an only child can sympathize with what I'm saying.

I've been going to the same school since second grade, and this is my last year. That's why it's not really like I'm going to make new friends this year. I've already met everyone that's going to graduate with me, and it's not that they're bad people. It's not like they hate me or anything, but it's just that we have all been together for so long... that they just figure that I'm doing my own thing, and they're doing theirs. It's not like someone can just "adopt" me into they're clique during our senior year. These are all cliques that were established in like first grade and they're not going to change. There was this one little group that I kind of got away w/ doing things sometimes, but they are really, really bad people, and they really, really do hate me.

I just feel like whenever I see people go out or whatever, like a little bit jealous, because I'm always at home or at the gym, or going somewhere with my mother. i ADORE her. But, it's just that it's not the same. My mother is my mother, and I'll always love her, like my mother. But, it's not the same. I need people do things with, young people.

Can someone please help me? Because before it was just bored... but now it's more than that. Now, I've just been so bored, that now it's turned into being sad... because i just feel so desperate i guess is the word.

thank you :)

I know how you feel. I am an only child for one thing so I understand the lonelinest factor. also, I went to a parochial school for nine years, so by the time highschool came, we were allsick of each other. I understand the whole being together for too long. Thats how I felt too. When you get away from those people youll be able to grow and find your own group. I felt like I had no friends, we were all a little too tied together if that makes sense. I went to highschool and associated myself with a bunch of different people, and I learned that I have many different interests, like theatre and singing so I met people that are in theatre too and soccer so I was able to grow, thats what you really need to do also.

Good luck! All the best!

I know how you feel.
But I do have a sister.
She is younger than me.
But, my cousin is an only child and he lives near me.
And I know he is lonely all the time cause he is ALWAYS calling me to come down and hang out.
But, you know what?
At school, you know how to make friends?
You find a way to purposely talk to them,
like get your pencil and say, is this your pencil?
And whenever they answer no, just say sorry. And tell them you like there shoes, shirt, pants, ect.
And you guys will start talking.

It works for me!
And I know it worked for my cousin. He does it allllll the time.

I really hope this worked for you!

:D
