...See more Hey guys. I’m here because I texted 988 yesterday. It was a day like any other day where I left the house to socialize at a place that I frequent. There are some people I know there but unless the explicitly invite me to hang out with them they ignore my presence completely. I also know that they gossip about me. This made me feel anxious because it’s not the first time it has happened. You might say to just find other friends but with everyone else it’s just the same. Surface level conversations with no depth and no development. I have experienced the same and worse with dating. I recently moved to this city in order to meet better people than the city I moved from. I’ve been way more social, and put myself out there much more. I initiate conversations, I flirt, I follow-up. Everyone has ghosted me. It makes no sense to me. I’m an attractive, tall, well-kept young man that has a good paying job, live on my own, and have emotional intelligence. Why doesn’t anyone want to give me the time of day? I’ve struggled with this my entire life, always feeling like an outsider in every group. I don’t feel like I’m doing anything wrong but it really feels like there’s an invisible sign over my head telling everyone to stay away from me. I’m so lonely and anxious everyday just trying to make friends and be accepted and nobody does. I don’t know what to do anymore. I’ve tried hobby groups, singles events, going to the same place regularly, networking, moving cities, traveling, and initiating in public. Nothing ever converts to anyone wanting to spend another second with me. It crushes my soul everyday no one would care if they ever saw me again.
