Is it normal to be 21 and not have friends?

Basically a couple of years ago, I was going through a real rough patch in my life, and none of my friends cared enough about me to ask me how I was doing. Slowly we lost contact and now they all have new friends of their own, but I never could make friends. I'm going to school, just got a job, and am joining clubs, but after 4 months of searching and trying really hard, I've had no luck!

Is this normal??

    It's normal not to have friends but it's not normal to be 21. Shame on you.

    The easiest way to make friends is to be a friend yourself.

    I'm sorry to hear :( I know it's hard having no friends, or at least no true friends. Having a job and joining clubs should help you meet people with similar interests as you though :) just don't give up hope. You can meet the people who have the biggest impact on your life when you least expect it, and in the weirdest of places too :)

      Thanks, Alice! :) Actually, I'm making friends at school. I had lunch with a few kids from class, there are two girls at school I really like (hahaha), and I'm going to hang out with this guy in one of my classes some time.

      I'm taking Calculus over the summer, which is the PERFECT class to form a study group for. We'll "study" -- preferably studying the art of making friends. :) (Lame.)

      Thanks again for your kind words!@! :D
