No interest in socializing and making friends is probably one of the reason I am not having friends or girlfrinds.I am lucky that I do have a workplace where I can socialize a little but today I am feeling a little lonely although it isn’t too bad,and the loneliness is probably because I had strained my groin and couldn’t play some football which I love to…
Anyone thinks no interest in socializing and making friends is a problem,and I am wondering if I would ever open up and make friends or have a girlfriend?
I hope someone can tell me that they used to not make friends and after some years they open up and made some friends and got a girlfriend/boyfriend…haha
aw gtx you are probably just depressed? give it time, I assume you are pretty young like in your twenties? I didn’t marry until I was 44, so there’s time for that.
I quit looking for love and learned to cope on my own and then my girlfriend came into my life over a year ago. I’m so happy that we’re together and making our lives. I met her through my friends, it’s great to socialize and even sometimes dare yourself when you think, (well I dunno) (or maybe I shouldn’t). It’d be great for you to have a (wingman) to go out and meet people. There’s a lot of ways to become more confident and sociable, I study it through self help cds. I try my best to cope and be a social tiger in mind and out. But it’s true, I get tired-or sometimes still want to be left alone. But it’s not an option mentally, and I don’t ever want to lose this real time environment that I have. So I just keep trying to make this work, and I make mistakes-and gain ground in reflection over people I’ve met.
Tend to agree with jukebox. If you are healing from physical injury. There is a touch of depression involved as your limited with what you can do. Really make the most of it lap up any TLC you get, rest up, Watch some videos , play computer games. Eat drink and be merry. Maybe invite some of your work mates or soccer buddies over to do the same.
Dude he’s totally right! Maybe you could develop a (soccer weight lifting plan). You could find other people committed to the things you enjoy doing by going out to watch a game with friends like dreamscape said. Sounds like you’re just a little bummed by an injury, try stretching!
I think the fact that you are inclined to be social even if you don’t feel like right now says alot.
Theres a difference between not feeling social and being antisocial.
If you have negative feelings about society or certain people or groups in it and thats whats keeping you to yourself then that could be a problem (think the unibomber) and you should definitely tell a nut cracker about so you can nip it in the bud.
I didn’t do that in my early 20s when my symptoms got bad and now have antisocial beliefs that dictate my life.
Since living in an assisted living facility, i have aquantances, no friends, I only have my boyfriend. I would love to have my life back, when mty daughter was little and i was a soccer mom, and all the moms would go for coffee, or to the oark, but when they found out i was mentally ill, all of them avoided me.
I’ve always been reluctant to socialize. That kept me from getting information about jobs because a lot of that is passed on by word of mouth. Also, there have been times when I was very lonely. I wish I could say I suddenly opened up and became a social butterfly. I am enjoying solitude more as I begin my later years.

Im computer illiterate and dont know how to post songs.
But I consider Riviera Paradise my anthem because it has a general calm overtone with stabs of up tempo then at the end it has a rush of up tempo then fades down.
