Realizing I don't have any friends and wondering what to do
I'm 27 years old and I never had a lot of friends, but when I was younger I did have core friends I hung out with a lot. I have begun to realize that I have no friends. The only friend I have is my boyfriend and one friend that lives 400 miles away.
I tried meeting new people on meetup.com. I was part of a woman's group on there. But, I left because I met 3 different women that were verbally abusive and would criticize me. One actually became violent towards me.
I've tried having work friends, but it never seems to last long. At my current job, I always hear about people's BBQ's and other events, which many of the staff went to, but I wasn't invited.
I've tried to reach out to people who I thought I was friends with, but they always make excuses why they can't hang out with me. Then I see them on facebook hanging out with other friends, who are mutual friends.
The thing that bothers me is that I don't know why people don't want to hang out with me. I'm a pretty positive and helpful person. I like to joke around and have fun.
I reconnected with someone from when I was in college, but she also stopped talking with me. Whenever I send a message, she doesn't respond.
I've had a few friends not invite me to their wedding, which is sad since I thought we were close.
I'm not much of a phone person. I like to meet people in person.
I've always wanted a best friend, someone I can hang around with all the time. Trust and know that they are always with me. Are these friendships just in the movies? I see a lot of people I know who have friendships like this. I wish I knew what I could do to make it happen.

Hi honey!! I know how you feel!! What bummer no one wants to hang out with you! The people you describe seem like wimps anyways and they are missing out!
Their loss,and not yours!
This day in age,meeting people is fun,but can also be very dangerous,especially when its face to face the first time,and you have never even met these people,much less know their name
Waltz on over to a curly hair guys website,tah-dah! Facebook! Yes,Facebook,the lovely white f!
F should stand for friends!
When I got on Facebook,I only added my mom and my sister,any extended family was out of the picture,because frankly they are all a bunch of weirdos!
Now the,what are your hobbies? I became an Adele fanatic,and I joined and liked some pages of her,and made conversation with some fans,and that was 4 years ago,and we are still a tight knot group,we talk on the phone,we talk almost every day!
Even if you are not obbsessed with Adele,you may have intrests,and you can type them in Ye Olde Search Engine on Facebook,from then on,leave comments,or compliments and get the ball rolling!! Dont be shy!!
You can even,if you wish,find people in your own zip code or area code,if you prefer face to face contact!!
Be blessed sugar!
