I can't stop crying. I feel completely pathetic. I'm alone in my living room, with no friends near by. I have no friends in the town I lived in since I was 6. No friends from school, (Bar one, who I've never been able to open up too.) and no friends from college.

My two closest friends are 60 miles away. And my other friend is 400, and I've never really met. Balls.

=/ That's awful...I have more acquaintances than "friends". I'm guessing you're not a very social person either? (which I totally understand, because I am definitely not.)

The University of Michigan application process. It's gonna be a long month.

I feel your pain. Most of my closest friends are literally half the world away.

Got completely wrecked the other night. Did some shit I refuse to regret. Aftermath is settling in... damn.

Housing inspection tomorrow, and even though I've cleaned the place, I always have a nagging feeling there's something I missed, no matter how anal I get.

I don't really know the band or the person, but I'm sure some of you do.

For a week now I haven't had enough sleep and I feel like there's a rock inside my head.

Isn't liek half of the forum from the UK? Can't you set up a meeting then stare at each other awkwardly, get monged on stella or do anything that passes for a pastime there?

Cheer up! Here's Richard fucking Dawkins dancing with pope:

Sorry to hear that Amber. Honestly though, you really shouldn't feel pathetic. The only reason you (feel like you) don't have friends nearby will be because the people near you aren't "good enough" to be good friends of yours. I obviously don't know you well at all, but to me, you seem pretty dang awesome. Very kind, caring, fun, interesting, happy to be you... There's nothing not to like IMO. So you shouldn't be so hard on yourself.

If you wanna know pathetic/unsociable, take a look at me! I (pretty much) purposely avoided the Dev forum get together at Bloodstock cus I felt too shy and scared that I'd just be the guy nobody is talking to cus he has nothing interesting to say (which I kinda knew would be the case, without being embarrasingly wasted of course). You guys are far too cool for me, lol.

Luckily, I'm doing okay for friends at the moment, just about. There are people that probably would listen if I opened up to them, but, I never do, and probably never will. I mean, among people I know, I do tend to be very reserved and keep everything quiet/to myself anyway, but still. My closest friend is many miles away most of the time due to uni though. Its very hard to keep my thoughts "under control", keeping everything to myself and all that, but I haven't broken yet, thankfully.

Though, is this a case of you feeling crap due to not being a very social person? Or are you perfectly okay in the realm of "chat" - but just upset at not having 'strong' friends near you?

Also, if I'm not mistaken, having a boyfriend must count for something? (Unless I'm missing something, like him being away for a while or whatever...)
Feel free to laugh at us pathetic single lonely losers if it'll give you a perk, we don't mind

Peeps will always be here to give a collective forum hug as I'm sure you already know.
And as BrunoN said, people on here will always be up for a get together, even me if its for a good cause Nah, it'd be cool.

You guys are too awesome. Seriously. I'm feeling better today. I was having a panic yesterday - After getting depressed and losing all my friends from school & college (No one wants to be friends with the depressed kid. xD) And then going into a shitty job, I got used to being abit of a hermit I guess. In my new job, everyone is friends with eachother, as well as collegues, so I think I felt a little bit like a fish out of water - It kinda made me realise my situation.

You should of met us! We'd of pulled you out of your shell. I know the feeling, I also feel like I'm "that guy" a lot of the time, but honestly, you would of been fine. Violet (Lettuce) wouldn't of given you an option besides chat anyway.

I'm quite a social person - I love talking to people, and I love hearing what people have to say. But the whole depression = loss of confidence = hermitting, I don't think I realised how bad things got until I looked around a little.

And yeah, I do have a boyfriend, but he's moved away for Uni. I'll be there this weekend though, which is nice.

And I won't laugh at you! God, I might be a bitch, but I'm not mean.

-hugs for all-

Yeah, I know I should've met you lot. Of all the people to meet and relate to, who better than you guys?! - I dunno why I didn't really. I'm similar in loving to hear to what people have to say, its just that I tend not to have as many interesting things to say back.

"Why's that?" - "Because, Aden, you also have been hermit!" - "Oh... yeah..."

I should book myself a massive holiday and do some really cool shit or something...

Music videos depicting people humping eachother also satisfies the Amber. Amberfrog. Frrrrramber.

Well, there will be a Devy tour up and coming, so I'll see you there.

And you totally should book yourself a holiday!

Guess so

Yeah, I've really felt like I need more stuff happening in my life. I mean, I don't think I'm a boring person, and I like to think people can have good conversations with me cus I love to listen to anything people have to say n stuff... but more often than not, my answer to "So what have you been up to lately?" tends to be "Meh, nothing much. Usual stuff". A holiday would be so awesome right now.

I've not been to many gigs at all in the last year, since the start of Uni, something I definately miss. But, I'm gonna start going to more even if it means going alone. Not many of my friends nearby are into the same bands as me, and the one that is (housemate) is a tight boring old fart who will NEVER spend money on occasions/events and prefers to save it so that he can buy 64 bit Windows 7 with 8GB of RAM and a new Hard Drive FUCK YEAH WOO!! I get really frustrated being stuck inside for too long, but with the people I'm with, that happens more than I'd like. So yeah, gigs in the lonesome - Quite looking forward to it really.

You never know - There might be others in the same situation, into the same things! It's worth the risk.

And over the forums, I've always had good conversations with you. ANd we shall prove this on the Devy tour.
