What do you guys do to make friends?
    #22362861 - 10/11/15 11:33 AM (8 years, 8 months ago)

I guess this question sounds really stupid, essentially. Ever since I moved 2 months ago, I just can't seem to find anyone that's interested in me. There's only this one guy but I think I kinda fucked up last night (long story short, I ate some shrooms and it brought out the nasty in me). I don't know, everyone that I've talked to is nice, but I'm just really shy. No one's asked for my phone or anything so I just feel so lonely here. I've just tried so hard :sad: I don't know what it is, if it's what I wear, what I say, or I'm just that shy.
I just feel awful
Any advice anyone have? Would love to hear some at this point, honestly

A few years ago, I joined a volunteer group.  We donated mammograms and pap smears to uninsured and under-insured women.  I made lots of friends that way.  2 of the ladies in that group are my BFFs now.

I have the same problem. I want to talk to people but I just clam up around them. I've gotten used to being lonely and I hate it

If you brought out the nasty with some guy I bet he is going to call you back for sure :wink:... Unless your definition of nasty is shitting on his chest or something.

Your location says CO, you can always go smoke weed with random people until you find a group that clicks. If you have shrooms and weed it shouldn't be that hard to socialize, we would be great friends if I met somebody who liked the same substances I do. It's actually hard for me to meet people who like to trip. They are all controlled by their significant others.

I don't know if there is one but you can go to a Colorado shroomery gathering.

I tried giving away mammograms, it didn't go over too well.

people will never fail to stab you in the back when it can benefit them anyways

Find some kind of hobby where people socialize or get chatty with people at work. It can take a while to make new friends, but if you keep doing stuff then you'll find a few buddies sooner or later. Also good drug friends are usually harder to find because it takes some trust to break the law with people (assuming they're not idiots).

*fixed :wink:

half hits of good acid is very social experience.

Also, join some kind of group of something that interests you. Photography group for example. Search online in your area, might find something.

And go to head shops in Colorado and hang out, you might meet some friends with similar interests :bongload:

You have to find common interests with people. Once you do that, getting together is pretty much inevitable.

Being shy makes it harder, but it's still doable. Keep chatting people up. Maybe take the initiative and offer to hangout with someone.

Another one most people might over look is go to school. Just go take a couple classes of general Ed at the local community college.

my advice to you is to read the dozens of other posts just like yours. I for one am tired of giving out the same advice.

how do i make friends?, how do i get the girl/guy?, see what i mean?.......  before you post a thread read through the similar threads to see if your question has been asked. now sometimes things have to be asked again.... but the posts like yours are getting to be once a week....

When you say shy, do you mean that it can be hard to be completely open?
Or do you mean you're like the quiet observer in the corner who has nothing but one word answers to every question?

what do guys do to make friends...? they saunter into them, knuckles dragging, by accident.

best advice i can give...common interests...that's it...common interests. otherwise, put out, or...visit your nearest house party.

First of all, chill out with the social anxiety (via exposure). The fear of social situations and duality of fearing not having enough social situations is illogical and doing you no good.

How do you break that? As others are saying, get out of the house more. Do things you enjoy and find like minded people. Don't aggressively seek opportunities in what little social time you have, just start working more, volunteering more, and going to more social events and your social phobias will fade, your social skills will raise, and it'll be straight up routine.

Start with work/volunteer stuff first, because people are less focused on each other and there's more impetus to get along for the task at hand.

might be good, but if someone is already socially awkward I don't see how this is going to work.  Concerts can be a bit overwhelming if you're not social, especially if you're going by yourself.

For me, personally, it takes a while to warm up to people.  Like a cat.  That's okay.  Making friends doesn't happen overnight.  Just try to be patient with yourself and others.
