I don't know how else to say it.

I'm 19 and never kissed. I see cute college girls all around (I live close to the university that I study at) but none of them are interested in me. I've received some okay rejections but some bad ones (the worst was from someone who didn't seem like a party girl). Seeing all the couples and girls outside of my house just makes me want to stay in. I'm not good looking or confident.

I also haven't had a close friend in six years. Even the nerds call me weird (yes I'm that messed up). I haven't hung out with anyone in two months as of today. My life's so boring! Before you say anything, YES, I try to meet people in activities, but the problem's not that I don't try, it's that no-one's interested in what I have to say. My last close "friend" made fun of me behind his back, and he was obese and made perverted jokes. Everyone hated him. This was back in the eighth grade!

My interests are solely academic, and I'm an engineering major. None of them make good conversation topics, not even with other smart people. Even I find them boring nowadays.

Next week, I'm leaving to a military-style fitness training camp where hopefully I will build muscle, lose fat, and gain confidence in myself.

I believed in this myth my whole life that too much socializing impedes your academic progress. Now I see that not enough socializing impedes this progress. I feel like a piece of s**t.

Being isolated in college is f*cking depressing... :cry:

Maybe you can cultivate other interests and work on your social skills. Make friends before you try to get girls, unless you are super good-looking your social awkwardness will be too much. Talking to a therapist may help since you sound depressed.

They're "nice" but only as aquaintances. I just can't make close-knit friendships.
