Hey. I have trouble making friends. I'm not so much of a people person when I'm not in the greatest mood. Sometimes when I first meet someone I really want to be friends with, it really get's really awkawrd....fast! When I don't someone that well, I really don't know what to talk about. It really depends on my mood. If I'm annoyed and upset, I don't talk to anyone. When I'm sad, I avoid people. When I'm calm I talk calmly, when I'm happy, I'm outgoing and sweet and funny. And when I'm crazy happy...I'm just crazy happy. So how do I make friends without it getting awkawrd? I hate awkawrd moments...so how do i break the ice???

    Try to meet people through activities that center around shared interests.

    No its not a poem. This is straight out of my head. It's 'essence' i guess Zen Buddhist philosophy. The problem is when you start on this quest looking for 'you', There will be nobody home. There is no 'you', its a construct, made of emotions, feelings, preferences for some things, aversion to others, hopes, dreams, etc., etc. But there is nothing you can point to and say 'This is me'. What you will come up with are words to describe your emotions, feelings, how you are, how you look etc., etc. Nothing describes consciousness, the very essence of 'you'
    When you realize and fully understand this blindingly obvious truth, LIFE FLOWS.
    Look around.

    It's all too beautiful . . . . .

    This is easy: Stop looking to make friends.
    It's clear from the list of emotions you talk about that your emotions just run you.
    Life is not this way. Emotions are transient states.
    Look below this facade and ask where is 'you'
    Relax and be 'you'. Never look for 'happy' 'upbeat' 'joyful' 'successful' These are transient states and cannot last. It's a fools errand.
    Essentially these states are not really 'you'
    This is a 'you' that is reacting to your environment.
    Aim (if you must aim) to be content. Stop looking for what you haven't got and started looking at what you have got.
    If you are calm and take life as it comes, people will be drawn to you. No need to look.
