try to put yourself out there if you aren’t already, it’s hard when times change. it’s not impossible though and you aren’t alone

jlxlz is right tho try to put yourself out there to other people in your area if u can . I'm sure it a wonderful person and if it's not possible I hope your able to reconnect with some of your old freinds. If were able to help out with anything from boredom or ocd let us know we able to help :). I know it's no the same and I hope your able to meet people irl. I wish I knew someone who had ocd irl to know if I really have it after all. Anyway I hope ur having a good day and keep on going , in the end were not alone and there is always someone will look out for you and be there when u need it :) start strong ♥️

@Ambiguous Thanks i am trying to but like i said on the other post you responded to i have put myself out there to old frjebds but too much time has passed and its become awkward. Ive tried again with tinder but im already self conscious as is and when i had that major ocd spike my skin turned on me so now im more afraid than ever to meet these people

@Coul.C I just want to say thank you for the support. Idk how anyone on this app can help anymore than you already do and I appreciate it. It just sucks. I really want to run away from my life and start a new one but that might be all or nothing thinking so 🤷🏾♀️ lol

@Coul.C I get that feeling of wanting to start over again it's might be all or nothing thinking but it is appealing tbh. It really doesnt make much of a difference tho if u don't put yourself out there regardless. Im not saying that's easy but I hope u do since u deserve freinds, we all do in this community. I've met so many interesting people on this app I wish I could be able to meet you and the rest of them. It would be a great experience.

@Coul.C I'd recommend going on tinder or other social media posts or finding groups that interst u in your local area. Even if it's just being there and not making freinds on the first day to get your confidence up to be able to talk and meet new people. Who knows you might w new best friend that way. I know it's hard but keep your head up its going to get better if slowly at first :) 😁

@Ambiguous Thanks you’re actually right about it getting better slowly. Honestly it was so much worse before now i can’t believe how bad it got. But now the things that once kept me up all night and unable to eat dont :). You’re right and i need to keep putting myself out there despite the rejection i might or my not face. Its all apart of life and i think itd be great meeting some of you too. You deserve friends too and im glad i met you and many others through this app.

I don’t know what to do anymore I made a friend recently in college and was texting her the other night and she mentioned she was doing her nails and I said nice and asked her if I could see. Because I was curious about what she did to them this time around and since then she has not responded to me I apologized to her saying I’m sorry if it bothered her but still nothing. Some of my friends just don’t answer me anymore I feel like I’m a burden of the ones who do still talk me I’m so done with it all. I’m tired of trying to find love as well I feel nothing to it anymore it’s only left me with disappointment and sadness I feel like I’m an unlovable husk of a person and that I would only ever be a bother I cannot fathom the idea of someone loving ME I just can’t I feel like it’s impossible I feel like everything about me bothers people to the point where I think is it even something I should try to achieve anymore. I should honestly block myself from trying to make new friends and relationships I’m so so tired of it. I feel unappreciated and annoyed that I am the one that has to try to keep up any sort of relationship because if I don’t reach out they never will reach out to me the reason I know this is because it’s been proven time after time since middle school that I am nothing to these people and I might as well no longer try. I don’t know what to do anymore I feel like I’m going to be all alone for the rest of my life I’m just so lonely now.

I’ve been in a really difficult situation recently and this weekend I’ve been looking forward to for ages. I had a concert and then nights out planned with my cousins. But I’m a tad bit older than them and they’re a lot closer in ages, as are all their friends from uni, so I’m kinda just stuck here with nothing to do. They’re off flirting with people their age and dancing and I’m getting no attraction or even attention (not in an attention seeking kinda way just an I’m lonely kinda way). At the concert they left my 5 or 6 times to go to the toilet and get drinks, when I went to the toilet I went alone. I was left alone to the point people around started to notice and I had one guy say “left alone are you? You need to get better friends” I just feel very left out. I’m a lot older than them and I know I have to keep a mature head but I’ve already fallen into a pit of depression recently and very very low self esteem to the point I barely wanna go out in public, that I’m now sat here all anxious and in a really bad mood. I don’t even know exactly why or when it changed but last night I just snapped. My sister was off meeting new people, my cousin was dancing with creepy men, a guy I found attractive was more interested in my cousin, she started dancing all provocative on him and I was just kinda there. I then had people asking me if I was neurodivergent and bisexual which just sent my ocd spiralling and nobody quite understands how horrible it is to be in my head. There was this lovely guy saying how amazing stunning and beautiful I was but it kinda just made me go “you’re saying that because you feel bad for me, because you know they’re getting all the attention and I’m this ugly duff person on the side”, it’s insanely exhausting. I’m tired of it now. I don’t wanna be in a mood anymore but I can’t seem to shift it, I’m stuck
