Is it normal to not have any friends?

I mean, no friends whatsoever. No one to talk to. I'm not even socially awkward, i never say the wrong thing and im never shy, or get stage fright or any of that, but no one wants to talk to me. whenever someone actually talks to me i feel like people actually care and i can actually be friends with them but nope, then they turn away as soon as i say something then they just ignore me. is it my fault for doing something supposedly wrong or am i just too ugly to talk to? or is it just everyone elses fault for not giving me a chance? it just really feels like everyone hates me, especially how they have to go out of their way to avoid me as if i got the lurgies.
and when i had to perform in a concert at school ages ago, no one clapped even though the teacher said i was the best piano student and i felt mortified :( its because no one likes me or wants to even admit that they think im a good person or whatever, isnt it

ik that was a long one but hey you need context right ;o

    Awww
    That’s kinda the norm these days. Majority of people walk around with sticks up their ass. I’ll be your friend!

    People in general are dicks, and will hate people just because everyone else does.
    I suggest getting involved with new communities. They won't have the same pointless stigma that others in your current community do.

        Try online communities to begin with. If you're switching school systems soon (e.g. primary to secondary, secondary to tertiary) that's a good place to start IRL.
        If that's already done, I'd have to say that the biggest community change you can make is moving away from home on your own dime.

    Is it really just uncomfi or is it that you are afraid people will Hurt you if they get to close so you just push them away? I can relate to this. I don't like people in general but if I hang out with someone and they are naturally chill it kinda makes me feel a lot more at ease as well (you could read my post to get an idea on what I mean it called 'I don't know how she liked me, opinions please')

    People don't really interact socially in the real world anymore. It's sad. Why don't you just go walk around and go to different places and talk to strangers? It's a great way to make friends.

    It's normal. I do much better being a relatable guy on social media than talking to people in person.

    I assume you are one of those millenials? If so - typically people your age have their noses buried in their cell phone's ass so they are unaware of the world around them. A "Friend" has merely become some random stranger on facebook.

    Plus it seems the young adults nowadays have these super high standards of others. part of the bigger problem of people not willing to give the same respect that they expect out of others.
    If you are Gen X, Well by now we are at an age where people are tired of other's bullshit so we try to avoid contact with others. We hate different people for different reasons but it all comes down to not wanting to be bothered.

    So, you are not really any worse off than anyone else.

    I hope it's normal the closest thing I have to friends are my kids.

    To be honest I'm perfectly okay with that though.
