Ah, I've hardly ever had any friends my entire life either. I had one friend but he kicked the bucket a couple of years ago, so here I am, alone again, naturally. I am sort of obnoxious, but not, I think, toxically so. I see much worse fuckheads running around with lots of friends and gorgeous women dripping all over them. Maybe they're rich.
Maybe it's because we're black.
I often wonder if I don't have a mild form a asperger's syndrom; I just can't seem to relate to my fellow humans in any meaningful or lasting way. Nobody knows what the hell I'm saying and I'll be damned if I know what the hell they're babbling about.
So yeah, join the club, Prince. Maybe the tide will turn one day. Like Shakespeare said, even a worm will turn!

like attracts like and there's no one really like us around sometimes (personality wise)...then again some ppl close themselves off or are too dense/anxious for real-time social interactions. heh.

What she said.
Anyway man you gotta get out and risk. Hate to say it but that is the only way. Move to the Cack though and I'll be your friend as long as you're not a piece of s*** nonreciprocating loser. In which case you now know the reason you have no friends.

I have freinds who I think would be there for me in a heartbeat but we still lead very different lives and have developed different interest overtime. So I'm pretty much a loner which hasn't really changed much since junior high. It's like my friends are my friends cause they respect my space. Like "Po's weird but that's just Po." So idunno, whether I'm socially inept or not pretty much depends on what mood I'm in and how many beers I've had :) But I'm on this site quite a bit so what does that tell you?

I don't have any true friends either but I would rather have no friends than the fake, loser friends i had before! They put me through hell for years. I hope it's not because we're black! That would suck. But I think people just have to see how great you are... and they're not going to do that if you sit around and mope! Damn it, go out and live your fuckin' life!

Ditto.
I like being a loner better. People that hang off you (the type of friends i had) make things harder.

yeah my friends are like that. Like we can talk for a little while on the phone, im whatever, but thats it. we have very little in common. Or we don't hang out much. But I can say I'm glad for being a loner for the moment cause most of my peoples were pot heads with no direction in life. Now that I've found a passion for my art, I find myself falling apart from my old social scene.
Its like I'm getting smarter, and they are getting dumber!

Wow. This thread is interesting. I always think other people are just out there being butterflies. I can't say I have no friends at all, but I don't have a lot of them. I have closed myself off to other people and opportunities partly because of a fear of looking stupid. Like when everyone knows how to do some dance but you.
I have friends and family members who seem to be great at making friends and socializing. I really admire that quality in them. Those skills are definitely things I will work on in 2009.
If your friends were dragging you down, maybe you're better off.

Wow! I only have like two 'friends', sort of- one of them is (hate to say it) not a good friend and the other is. And yes, I am extremely lonely, and believe me I always try not to be. It's already hard if you have bad social anxiety, but constantly being around a**holes who are extremely hard to talk to and no one else makes it that much harder.

I'd like to say something about where this thread is going. Being a loner is not mentally healthy people! I think there are a lot of folks on here that would be happier with friends. The thing that I have learned about making good friends is you got to go out and meet them first. Also you can't be naive and throw yourself 100% into being a friend and then end up in a state of confusion because it is natural for people to take advantage of pushovers. Also your friend does not have to be into the exact same stuff you are into to be your friend. don't limit your friend circle to a scene. Peace and best of luck.
