Hi everyone. I'll cut to the chase — I'm having severe problems with people. I mean, no matter how hard I try to make friends, it usually never works out. At all. And I'm ending up being alone again, and again, and again. I'm not the most interesting person in the world, but I'm trying my best. And seems like that's not enough. I came here because I've heard that it's one of the most friendliest places in the web. So, maybe I will finally get an advise or two... or even find someone who will agree to help me directly. Thanks anyway.

Why do your friendships fail?

Great men are almost never good men, they say. One wonders what philosopher of the good would value the impotence of his disciples.

Honestly, I don't know. It just seems like people dislike me for reasons I cannot comprehend. I'm trying to stay civil and act normally, as an average person would.

Find someone you trust and ask them. I'm serious.

I don't think I trust anybody to ask that question. Besides, I've got nobody as a friend.

Okay, then, we are going to need some more info. Ever tried going places where you'd likely find like-minded people? Conventions, sportsclubs, that kinda thing? Do you live in or near an urban centre? Are you in school, college, or employment? Are you on the autistic spectrum?

I am not 100% sure this is the best place for this conversation. the Insecurity, Sadnees, and anxiety thread might be more appropriate. In addition, if a person is looking for like minded people, they should introduce themselves in the Meet the Tropers thread, check out the Troper Covens, or bond over one of the many media threads.

I suspect this thread may have been opened accidentally. I advise people to avoid posting here until a mod gives it the official go ahead.

How about family members? Are you on speaking terms with them? If so, maybe they could give you a pointer or suggestion, as a start.

[up]And I'm seconding the above Troper: try introducing yourself on those pages as well, you might get a bigger audience there, and the rules aren't as strict as some of the OTC threads can be sometimes.

On-Topic Conversations is not a suitable place for this topic. Try over in Yack Fest, but we aren't a therapy group.
