I do not like my friends.

I have been doing a lot of thinking lately and I realised I just do not like my friends.
We have nothing in common and they talk about trivial things and I just cannot for the life of me contribute.
I did not really ask to be the friend in the first place, they just assumed I was lonely and therefore befriended me.
I suppose I went with them because I didn't want to spend High School alone.
At the moment I am pushing them away and dreading seeing them again.

    I hate all of my friends, but I hate everyone so...

    People are no good

    Too many people have a healthy circle of friends, but feel emotionally isolated. It sucks. You're welcome to contact me on AIM - my screenname is the same as the one I have for this site.

    Story of my life. I go to a tiny school and well, not that many people to choose from. They are deceiving, only look out for themselves, they're whores, and they pass judgment like NO OTHER! My plan: graduate with my middle fingers up, and SPRINT out that damn door and NEVER EVER turn back.

    i know what you mean, a group of friends that you feel emotionally close to and that you have fun with is really really hard to come by. i get bored in a lot of the conversations that my friends have, but i've accepted that i'm just going to be closer to some of them and more distant to others. i realized that the ones that i'm closer to act different sometimes around the ones i'm distant to, and that's why i get bored in the conversations and feel like my mind is somewhere else. but i can definitely understand and forgive my close friends for acting "cool" sometimes, since i'd rather hangout with the distant people too and include them in the group than only talk to the few people i'm close with.

    kindof hard to explain but if you're not even close to a few people in your circle then move on! friendship is definitely more than trivial conversations

    I did, and I don't regret it.

      Did you ever get picked on? I used to so I guess I do not want a repeat of Primary school and Intermediate.

    You know that YOU are in control of who you become friends with, or at least you are suppose to be.

    Hopefully you'll find some people worthy enough, instead of people who feel only feel pity for you.

      I'm from a small town and the only people I have met are mainstream with no personality. I would consider myself to be 'alternative', if you will, so I really have trouble finding people with my interests. Plus, I'm not very social and I find it hard to talk to people and come across as rude when I mean to be truthful.

    Yep I was suffering from this not too long ago. It was really bad...I would ignore their calls and anything they said to me sounded so stupid. Not to mention the fact they would talk about the same thing over again. I wouldn't even say anything and they would ask if I was okay. Then I began to put in snarky comments that was mistaken for sarcastic funny ones. Then I began to fake laugh. I really stopped caring about what they said and everything would go in one ear and out the other. You really have to be away from them for a long time in order to cure this. Luckily summer time came around and I was around them, I'd told them I went on vacation and really got some 'me' time. After I got off of 'vacation' I missed them and wanted to see & talk to them again. This probably won't help you but it helped me out.

      i would say you can get along with them you dont have to like them, cause getting along may cancel out the not liking since your not fighting or anything. Plus there are certain people that you like to be around in a certain setting cause it makes you feel more comfortable.
