hey all i was wondering how you guys met your friends..... like in your classes or what? i'm wondering cuz i got none in my school and i haven't/can't find anybody who clicks with me and who i'd like to hang out with. it really sucks ass ya know.... especially since my only friends (from church) live kinda far away and are busy doing their own thing with their own friends in their school and their gf's and im stuck in shittyland aka the san fernando valley where i haven't found any cool kids.

Never fear, I used to be in your shoes about two and a half years ago.

Just keep on keeping it real, and friends will find you.

Actually, friends are overrated. I hate my friends more than anyone I know.

eh you're real lucky chinesenoodle cuz most ppl and my old elementary school friends have changed and drifted apart and are have generally turned into the kids who play counterstrike and starcraft all day in their rooms.:confused:

ya uh, you might get flamed on or whatever for this thread but uh...hey i dunno...depends on the people...i met my best friend in eighth grade when we were making fun of the same kid...just had a lot of the same interests and stuff...don't be an ass to people you don't know yet...you can hang out at places you like and try talking to people who hang out there also...give it a shot, might work, might not, dunno.

wow sounds like a few of my friends. Friends are strange. The friends I make at school are all good people, but my true friends are out of school. People who really know me. I guess real friends are really hard to come by. Im glad i have a few.

Just open up and be yourself. No one likes anyone who sits there and doesnt say anything, and no one likes someone who treis too hard. Eventually you'll come across someone that will like you for who you are. Just keep your eyes open, you'll come across potential friends in everything you do.

I've always had a problem with finding friends too... my best friend well i dont know about best, but she seems to think her boyfriend is more important than anything else in life.

Well i have found it is hard to find a friend in this day and age becuase they are all PREPS, my school is overflowing with them.

Assholes come in all styles, as do good people. Maybe you cant find friends because you rule out a whole group, a huge one at that.

Friends suck. End of story. But I met most of my friends around town or at shows. Its wierd...I just kinda start talking with them, and we become friends. I met my best friend pan handling (he was, not me) and my other best friend because she told me I was hot. Just be yourself, don't worry about what others think

I'm pretty lucky. I'm going to college and I have a few friends from HS that are going to the same college, I have other friends that are going to a community college near buy, and i met a couple people at my orientation. but usually I'm pretty lonely if my little circle of friends arent around...

well there are a lot of preppy people at my school, i mean my two of my best friends are, but some of the others i know, wont talk to me if i hang out with the crowd i do, and they create so much drama, and talk about how they want to kill my friends.... and they ask you stupid questions like god you are turning goth and shit like that, and they judge me and talk shit to me and some of my chirstian friends about being christian... they just seem to get into everyones business.... well that's in my experiences and i bet all you have different ones...

seriously its true. like what you guys were saying, you have to look past them and its really hard to tell who is and isnt a friend because alot of people talk. but you've got to take chances i guess. Luckily ive got a couple who i can count on.

ya, you can also try meeting some people online. like it was said earlier, not only are preps asses...but those "punks" who are all non shallow and don't care how much money is in your pocket and what clothes you were....ya that's a pile of shit...almost all people are shallow SOBs who should be burned...a good way to meet people is going to shows also, the problem with that is no one likes going to shows alone...but give it a shot....ya with the online thing...you can do it but uh ya watch out for the pedophiles and crap but you might get lucky...i met my girlfriend online...we met and stuff and since everything is sorta backwards...she got to know me and liked me that way...then when she saw me she didn't care much cause she thinks i'm kool...what i'm gettin at is that it might be easier to "meet" people online since they won't ignore you for wearing the same shirt twice a week...or...four times a week...it's worth a shot, and look for people closeby where you live.

I went to the same school for 8 years and had the same "friends" the whole time except they were not very good friends. When it was time for high school, I went to a different school. I am about to enter my junior year without making a single friend. I guess there is something wrong with me. Well there is but let's not get into that.

Anyway for the advice on making friends I obviously cannot help much. But I just say be comfortable with yourself and just go to a social place of some sort....in my town it would be the mall or the movie theater but if you actually live somewhere INTERESTING I am sure you can do better.

I ,of course, do none of these things because I am a paronoid little fool.

Oh and watch out for the "friends" that stab you in the back in a terrible bloody mess. They really suck. :rolleyes:

07/17/03, 08:59 AM
I had your problem when I was in grade 5,6,7,8. But as soon as I went into high school I got lots of great friends.

If you wanna meet people join clubs, talk to people in your classes and even meet people at shows. I met my ex boyfriend, and some pretty close friends at shows. Just be yourself and don;t seem to needy to be liked, because then people won't like you.

i guess you just have to meet people with common interests, like i started out meeting people from sports and stuff. and also ive learned really DONT judge people by if they dress preppy or even if they normally dont talk to you because ive actually met some awesome "preppy" people, my best friend dresses ultra-preppily but shes completely awesome, shes not shallow or anything either like she loves hiking and stuff which you would never guess. also just like be friendly and laugh at peoples jokes and stuff

that's true, you can count your true friends using the fingers on your left hand, and you'll probably have a few fingers to spare...hopefully you have five fingers like most of us. if not, how the hell do you not have any friends?? i wish my friends had like 6 fingers and stuff.

i used to be a little snobby at work and then once i stopped and started talking to people i found out that most of them are really interesting and nice. and i only made 3 friends in highschool but thats because i moved to a differnt place for my grade 12 year and i was really shy, then once i started going to shows i met way more friends so most of my friends i either know because of skateboarding shows or work, oh but i have a lot of friends that live in edmonton(where i moved from) but i rarely get to see them. thats it.
