Is it sad that I've been closer online to far more people than I ever have
It's not that I'm always online or anything, but I've had very very few close friends in my life. I moved to a new town a year ago and I still don't feel like I have any genuine friends.. though I'm a good friend to anyone, even people I don't really know. As long as they aren't mean to me.
It just seems like its easier to find people online with common interests. Its annoying. Where are cool people like this IRL? I'd love to actually have a best friend I'd be totally on the same page with, who doesn't live in a different state, much less a different country.
HOW DO I FIX THIS. I'm a 16 (almost 17) year old girl. I can't change myself to be like other people.. I won't enjoy that. But I'd like to think I'm not that weird, even though my interests don't often fall into the mainstream I guess. But online theres far more people who share my interests. But I don't want my whole social life to be online you know? I suck at the friend thing in general, and being in a new-ish town doesn't help. I had to transition from the North to the South and people are very different.
I know I shouldn't give much focus to friends and all right now but.. I just feel so lonely and I've already missed out on all the friend perks of high school and junior high so Idk.. I'd like some fun to look back on, and not just reflect on these years as the worst time in my life? cause everything was good until 5th grade. But it would help school be a lot funner, you know

Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
Online everyone finds it easier to "put them selves out there". Where as at school most of your peers are just trying to go with the crowd and fit in. Online its easier to be yourself, and if your not careful someone else.
If you have a facebook I would ( and no this isn't stalking) check the profiles of the people at the new school. Just see if any interest or classes are similar to yours. Then from there I'd add them as a friend. Try talking to them at school and if you see that they would be a good friend you can talk to them online too.
