I remember when I was 16, and laid in bed one night thinking I don't want to grow up, I don't want to hit 18 and go out every night getting drunk. Im a introvert and im ashamed of it, when I was little I had a lot of friends, which all moved on. In high school I had a group of friends which all moved on. I was left with one who I don't see very often. As life went on it seemed to get harder, I don't know if its the way ive been brought up but I find it hard around people. And can only truly be myself if im comfortable. I have recently started coming out of my shell, and I have been drunk and hated it. But you go out and get called boring if you don't drink... Im doing other activities to try and meet new people but its proving hard.. I either meet people and never see them again, or a couple of friends I thought I'd made never made the effort and just started ignoring me.. Ive never had a boyfriend and I am so worried i'll die alone.
Im 21, and I sit here and worry that for one no one will want me because ive never been with anyone, im shy, I don't like what others are into. So I sit and plan how I can make it happen, and make friends.

    A really good way to meet people and become involved with your community is to volunteer at a homeless or animal shelter or the zoo. Volunteering would help immensely with your shyness and get you out of the house and helping others.
    Alternately, join a sailing club, biking club, a kite flying club; anything that interests you and meet like minded people that way.
    Going out to clubs and getting drunk is probably going to be rewarded with an unexpected little package of joy, any one of several STD's, but no lasting friendships.
    At 21 it's pretty silly to think you'll be alone for the next 70 years. You hardly have any idea of who you really are yet, so if you want a friend or two, find something that interests you and go where others who have a similar interest hang out.

    I never thought growing up and getting drunk were tied together.
