Just wondering if anyone can relate to this, and I hope this is the right forum..
I have no friends in real life or online and as a result I'm very lonely.
I hate it! It seems everyone has friends but me. All I'm asking for is just for someone to be there for me when I need to vent, or need someone to talk to, and for me to be there for them when they need to vent...
I have a hard time making conversation and I hate it... I just don't know what to say sometimes. It's hard for me to get my real feelings out, if that makes sense. And I feel I would come across as boring to people. I was diagnosed with depression last year, partly because I was lonely and had no one to turn to.
Maybe I'm just not meant to have any friends.
But I really don't want to go the rest of my life friendless.
I think there has been a lot of good things said already. But give a shout if things get bad. I'm in the same boat (if you look at some of my venting posts you'll see it). I have friends (local, not virtual) but it's a far cry from having support or someone that helps fill the void of lonelyness.
