Is it normal to not tell parents i have no friends?

It's normal to an extent. Don't become reclusive. Go out and do something. Go to the mall or The library or even take a class in something. It's interesting how many people you can meet if you go somewhere. You'd might even make a friend or two. Trust issues, I have them too. If you're worried about your "friends" then don't tell them personal things until you're absolutely sure that you can trust them. Good luck!

I feel the same way , but when i told my mom it backfired on me . She would always bring it up and joke about it and i was serious when i told her i didnt have any . But im out of school and now in college and i really dont want any friends , im a bit of a loner and i prefer to be by myself.i have encountered many people i thought were my friends only for them to stab me in the back so i have quite a bit of trust issues .

I have this exact problem in my life but you know what? You do have a friend and you know who that friend is? That friend is YOU! Love and worry about yourself and make yourself happy!

I'm the same way. I'm in college and still with my parents. They always tell me to go out with friends so when I'm annoyed I just go out for a drive. I have trust issues too due to bad experiences with previous friends. I talk to classmates when I'm at school, but I never hang out with them outside of school. I just don't want that dram in my life right now. It's not worth it. So I think it's normal..Well at least I hope it is ;)

Why don't you tell them what's happened?

Perhaps they have friends whose children are in the same situation as you.

Your parents want you to go have fun not just because they want alone time. Its normal to not want to tell your parents. When the time is right, you will meet some great people. Put yourself out there

I feel for - you people say go out do things but its actually quite hard to do thing by your self like go to the mall movies, I'm the same and it's hard but I'm sure if you did tell them they wouldn't do anything I'm sure they'd help you.

I have no friends either, but i just think: who cares im Friends with myself, because i know myself more than anybody else does. And just go Tell your parents that you have no friends im sure that wont get mad at you.

I am in the same situation. I have friends and I hang out every now and then, but often times I feel alone because they are all busy with their own stuff or I just can't relate to the partying and drinking lifestyle. Honestly, I like going to the movies and mall by myself. You should try it. I'm your friend if you ever need to chat :) nothing wrong with being alone and being happy.

Try joining a group of something you really like, for example hiking, dance, theater, sports, music, volunteer etc. You'll sure make new good friends or maybe find a boyfriend who knows ;)

lol. youll make new friends. they obviously think you still have some.

Aww :/ I was like this in my 1st year of high school.. It gets better ! X

That sucks, try and find a weekend job, i always make good friends at various jobs.
