I feel lonely
I feel hopeless. I have no friends. I like literature and art-house films. I believe in the statement that you are what media you consume. The media I don’t consume is what most peers consume (like sports or games). I am a 14 year old boy. I don’t even listen to HipHop or play any type of sport. Though I would like to play a sport, I just have this feeling that I can’t because it seems that everyone else started when they were kids and I’ll just embarrass myself, being the clumsy guy I am. I know there are many like minded people like me but I hate myself for having my mind and emotions, so I don’t want to befriend them. There is no club near me that is targeted towards my interests. I don’t have the sudden ability to just approach people or simply talk to classmates. Also I often feel unwell (due to being sick or feeling down) so I stay in my room most of the time. Being friendless *** me up because I had met someone who showed genuine interest in befriending me but because I don’t know how, i never talked to him even when he first ask me what games i play. It was over a year ago and still I have in my thoughts about what would happen if I befriended him, if I know how to, and whenever I see him, I want to talk to him but don’t know how and what. I became a *** creep with this emotions of mine. I read countless advice from people and ai yet here I am still being friendless. I became used to it that I can’t imagine myself otherwise. And it is really unhealthy that across several accounts I have made several posts like this, and even used AI. This is because I feel uncomfortable with the people around me and simply because I have no friend to talk to about it.
@toughTortoise6695 Hi, I'm Celine :) I'm so sorry you're going through this. One of the hardest things about being a teen is seeing everyone going out with their friend groups while you may just feel lonely. Making friends can be intimidating at first, but try not to overthink it. Most of the time, no one else really knows what they're doing either. No one's going to judge you, so just try your luck and talk to people about anything; it could be as basic as how their day was. You'll definitely meet someone whose personality clicks with yours.
