Friendless
I can't seem to make any real friends. I am able to talk to people in most situations. I get quiet sometimes, or don't know how to start conversations with some people. Although I do try, I usually ask a few questions and then don't know what else to say if the other person isn't talking. In some situations I am very out-going and the life of the party. In other situations, I am very quiet. People often say to me, "you are very introverted aren't you." Or times when I am very socialble, people will say, "We never knew were like this" but then they never invite me to hang out again. I may think that someone is my friend, but then they never want to do anything with me. I've thrown several parties lately and very few people come. I've always had a boyfriend or had an easy time conversing/entertaining men. But I can't seem to keep a friend that is a girl. I have close to 1000 friends on facebook, hundreds of people in my phone book. But if my boyfriend can't hang out with me one night, I end up spending the night alone. In college, my room-mates would go out together as a group, and not even consider that I would want to go out with them. If I showed interest in wanting to go, people would get awkward or make excuses. Sometimes I have to make up friends becuase I am embarrassed to tell my family or boyfriend that no one would come out or do something with me. I've had this problem since high school, and I'm now 25. Is this normal, or is there something wrong with me.
