is it anti-social of me to run out after school and hang out by myself?

Try to give them a chance, but I understand about not connecting, I am not great friends with anyone at school, I like other people

I just have to get out of the house when I feel lonely, once you're out you can meet new people and most of the time I end up having a conversation with someone I don't know, even if I'll probably never speak to them again. I go out to a pub or cafe and sit at the bar or a table just watching the world go by. Sometimes I take a book and it's suprising how many people will come over and ask what I'm reading or say that they've already that and it's good.  I also like to take my rollerblades to the park or the seafront if it's nice out, although wish I could skate better. Or I go to the cinema, even if I'm on my own I love watching a great film and for a while you're not really on your own cos there are loads of people around and no one is talking so you're not the odd one out. If you're out enjoy yourself, and just do things that make you laugh or that you used to do as a kid, even when you're on your own cos people will see you laughing and chat. (Just not to look like a psycho, laughing at your own jokes! :)) If all else fails when I'm lonely I call my mum, she lives 12000 miles from me and it's great talking to her.

I was moved several times before junior high and it wasn't fun.  Every one knows your name right away (since they already know everyone there) and you can't remember all of thier's.  They have established friendships and you are the "new kid" trying to fit in so some kids feel threatend by having to share thier friends with you.  But if you are confident and comfortable being yourself, things will go easier than if you decide it's going to be hard.  Keep a good attitude and Best of Luck!

Being that you dont go to school you need to find out what other places all the kids go to hang out.  Join some groups, that will help a lot.

You are spending too much time alone together. That's not a good idea. Go bowling, skating, jog, get out among people. You are playing with fire right now.

Oh yes. I have always felt different from everyone around me. There has never been anyone who truly "gets" me. I have friends, I have family, but still even when I am with them I feel alone.\nAnd yes left out of things. I've been in situations where it seems I was forgotten. Hearing friends talk about the great time they had doing this or that, and wondering why I wasn't invited.\nI don't know what you wish to know but remember the truly great have always stood alone from the crowd.\nDon't change to fit in, be yourself. Someone will "get" you.

Yes it is bad what u should do is sit that friend down and ket them know that you cqan befriend them and other people at the same time. You should never make a friend feel left out. Take all of them out oneday and see if they are a ggod pair then u all can hang out together. Just remember you cant please everybody just be yourself and Im sure you will find a true friend.

You can't help it if you guys are naturally drifting apart. If they no longer make the effort to see you, or each other, chances are that they don't deserve your company. You will make tons of new friends in life, it's ok to leave behind school buddies.

If you are a good student and dependable you're parents shouldn't stop you from looking for what you want for your future.  However if you feel you need to suck up to be allowed to do this chances are you don't fall into that category anyways so you're on your own to find a way to go out of state to party with friends

WELL THE PEOPLE YOU SURROUND YOURSELF WITH ARENT REALLY YOUR FRIENDS BECAUSE A FRIEND WOULDNT USE YOU FOR PERSONAL GAIN. IF YOU DONT HAVE EMOTIONAL BONDS WITH THEM YOU CAN FEEL ALONE IN ROOM WITH A THOUSAND PEOPLE IN IT. JOIN CLUBS THAT HAVE TO DO WITH YOUR INTERESTS AND TRY TO START CONVERSATION WITH POEPLE WHO HAVE SIMILAR INTERESTS. AND I WOULD DITCH THOSE LOSER FRIENDS TO START

Not really.  Be careful.  If you feel you MUST go meet someone, never meet them by yourself.  Take a friend with you.  Someplace public.

You need to tell her you can have more then one friend. If you need someone to chat with about anything add me to your messenger. Lol I went through the same thing in high school. I know what it is like to feel left out. Try to make some more friends... and 2 is company and 3 is a crowed really applies in friendship. You just keep your head up and if you need to chat like I said add me. I am here if ya need someone to talk to.

No quick fix tips - You have to slowly change your attitude towards social events...  Instead of making these events turn into things that cause you stress, you should look at them as places where you can have fun and enjoy yourself there..  Because most likely you ARE going to have a good time at these events..  \n\nIts tough to do, so dont expect it overnight... You may even want to talk to someone about it..

It might be some sort of anxiety problem, but if it's not giving you major problems, it's probably just a mild anti-social issue.  I don't like parties or large groups either, I prefer a small group, and I definitely need time to myself every day.  It's pretty normal.

no not at all ur fun and hate routine that's good...solution: toss the routine.  meet fun people and do new things like if u usually go swimming, go to the mall if u usually have sleepovers during the sleepover, run around outside and play flashlight tag instead of sitting inside and painting toenails.  fun!
