Well,my story goes like this:
I'm an anti-social,sixteen year old girl.(being anti-social doesn't mean that I don't have friends.It means that I have some friends,but apart from them,I don't like talking to other people that I don't know well)And I have a best friend.We have been friends since we were 6.When we became 12,we went to different highschools.She went to a highschool which was near the town we live and I went to another one which was faaar away from our town.As a result,I made some friends there that are nice and supportive,but we don't hang out much apart from school.(actually,we don't hang out at all apart from school)My friend,however,made new friends that lived near her and she has the chance to hang out with them.She goes out every day,but I'm always at home,feeling extremely lonely.And when we talk on the phone,she always tells me how fun her day was or something of that sort and I can't help but feel jealous of her.She,too,tells me that I have to go out more.However,she's never suggested me to go out with her and her other friends.When we meet,it's just the two of us and that doesn't give me the oppurtunity to meet other people.She's the only friend I have from my entire neighborhood!I guess you can understand how lonely I feel because of that.I want to go out and have fun like her,but I'm too stubborn to admit it...So,I remain home,all alone and feeling bored.I feel so empty...I don't know what to do with my life anymore,but I know that I won't be able to continue my life like that.I have THREE MONTHS to meet another person!All I can do is talk on the phone,but that's not enough for me.I don't want my life to be like that anymore...I need your advice,guys:
What should I do??

[join/make a club. that'll help you make friends with similar interests. What concerns me about your post is: you say you don't like talking to new people, but you want to meet people? sounds paradoxial to me. Anyways, if your friend only hangs out with you, ask them if you can meet with they're friends. Otherwise, just accept the solitude

I understand how you feel, very well. Because I kind of have the same problem. That may sound weird, but I'm doing voluntary work at church. It's not like cleaning or that stuff. It's hanging out with the people around my age, having fun with them and planning/arranging events for others. That way I meet many new people. Maybe you should try something like that. It's gonna make you feel less lonely, and you'll be looking forward to the days you can go there. Also like Kumagawa already mentioned join a club. (Sports like dancing, soccer, volleyball etc.) Good luck.

I have one question. What do you mean you have 3 months to meet a new person? Besides that, im in a similar situation. The school i go to is a private school. The people who go there are litteraly spread out all over the state so my school friends(if you can call them that) and i hardly ever do much of anything. Im also an only child who only has one parent left. On top of both of those, im the only teenager on my street so i know absolutely no one who i hang out with on a regular basis. My suggestion would be to ask if you could meet your friends friends. Next time she says "oh yeah, (insert name(s) here) and i had an amazing time!" say in reply "cool! I'd love to meet your friends some time, they sound like awsome people.", but not in a cold way. You could try >>2 and >>3 but you wouldnt know anyone there. Atleast by being introduced you have one person you know there.

At first, a big sorry for my bad English.

I know what you mean. At my old school I had a lot of friends, actually the whole class. I had a lot of fun, but I changed school and after a few months, i hadn't any contact with them.
I am like you, I mean, I don't like to talk with people, but still somehow.
At the first day at my new school, i don't know anyone. Then, I look after somebody who looks like me :) . Somebody, who also don't know anyone. At break I talk to her, an with the gir who sit besides me. They become friends and a other girl too.

It's two years now, and we rarely meet us at home or something. But we had a lots of fun. I am a kind of people, that prefer to be at the computer ;) But when I am bored, I aggravate my little bother :). Ok, and now to you.

How long are you at the new school? Is there anyone who sometimes looks helpless? I know, it's hard to do the first step, but talk with her. Or with the one who sit besides you (By my school is it so). Or go in a schoolclub or a sport club. Ask someone afther her interests, at christmas if she had all her presents or something. Smalltalk.
But more often you talk with her, you become more friends. Or ask your friend (who you was telling), if she likes to go in a cinema with you and her friends. Something like that.

You couldn't do anything wrong. Talk to someone about the weather, if she had pets...thousand things. What shoud happen? It can't get worse. And maybe you find some common ground. When there are groups, wait till someone stand alone or so. Or, when you have cleaning service( by us is it so). And at last, some people are different when they are with other, so maybe you find someone.

But if you like to chat althought my bad english, i have enough time. Or penfriends? ;)Ok, I am a litte too flashy.
Dont give up hope. I whish you much luck.

Our mission statement the world is not as bad as you think simple self explanatory

Well since you do have some friends you might want to start from there. Go hang with them sometime; with the friend you like the most of course. If now then there are other things.
You Could join a club that's related to your interests. Even going to Church and meeting people there (if your religious; I know im not XD). I've meet some great people at a protest rally when I was your age (weird right?). Party's are always the best thing to do when your looking for a good time as long as your careful.
Back in Highschool through the years I started having less and less friends as the years went by. I graduated got a job and im fucking loveing life right now (maybe getting a job will help you too?) but sometimes you don't enjoy life till you start to live entirely independently. I was lonely when I was 16 like you; but now im 20, im in the Navy, and I put all those lonely days behind me and drink at the bar with my loving friends who sing and holler the joys of living. And you'll be there two someday soon.

BTW what do you mean you have "3 months"?

I have the same problem in a way. I have a best friend who homeschools. I use to homeschool, but my mom and dad had to get a job and I went to public school. I also have really awesome friends, but I don't hang out with them outside of school. Really, I don't really want to. Even though I love them to death, my personality doesn't fully cop with them. I really miss all my homeschool friends! But I am never really able to talk to them. The big difference between you and me is the fact that I never really NEEDED friends. I am a very independent person. I do what I want, when I want. But I am still lonely. I haven't seen my (real) friends since.... I wanna say about five months or more. My advise is, NEVER give in to the depression!! You are stronger than that! Fight life back! If you kill yourself or cut yourself, you are only letting the world win! Just believe in your self! I always wanted a group of friends like in most anime that I watch, but I realized that they won't come to me! I need to come to them. Use this time to sign up for clubs or groups so you can meet people with the same intrests! Invite your school friends to a big sleep over. You are very lucky. You want to be around these people, so take this opportunity. Really, I need A LOT of alone time, but that's just me. Still, don't give ALL your time away. Spend some for yourself! :)

BTW!! Did you ever watch the Anime "My Little Monster"??? It's an amazing anime based on people with little to no friends! :) It's really cute and good! :)

You are still a highschooler so don't worry about it too much! I use to be the same as you. Highschool was not my thing at all. The school I went to consisted of jerks who do not even care a little bit about education so I did not try to make any new friends. I just stuck with my group of friends. When you reach college, it will be better, trust me. If you want to have more friends now, I suggest you bring yourself out there. Join a few clubs or sports, they really help. It feels great to be a part of something. Don't become depressed of how you are right now though. You are not the only one who feels this. Many, many teenagers feel the same way so don't give up yet! Just try your best and never give up! The world isn't as bad as you think.

a long time ao I used to feel tht way I use to hurt so much I wanted to take my life I felt so emty inside so lonely my heart wss tainted full sin and lie I thought love was just a word I did everything I could ignore everyone I didn't relize I was also hurting m,yb family I asked god help but nothing would happen there was day I was going 2 church o a sunday I was planning 2 killmmyself after church and a heard a song called there is a way tht song was sent to me by god after tht I devoted my life to god im happy now some time u may not understand but somethings happen for a reason the devil will do anything to hurt u a lot of my family sick I lost friend and family but god is by my side don't worry it will be ok all u need 2 do is believe i wish the best thourgh ur long journey god bless u

>>10 Thanks,L!!That sounds like an awesome anime!I'll check it out!^.^

What you need to do is find things you enjoy doing, and find a group or place where others do that. At this point, you'll be around people who at least have one similar interest as you. Use whatever it is as an ice-breaker to make conversation with someone. You're going to have to step out of your comfort zone, but you'll gain a few friends.

If ever you want to talk, you can email me at Kitaya.kun@gmail.com. If you have gmail, we can talk too. That goes for anyone lonely or just wanting to talk.
