How do you guys deal with having no friends...

How do you guys deal with having no friends? I've had no social circle whatsoever for about 3 years and it first I honestly wasn't bothered at all, but now it's starting to weigh on me and I'm not sure how to cope with this overwhelming loneliness.

>Wants friends
>Asks Sup Forums

we are your friends, isnt that enough?

>How do you guys deal with having no friends?
By remembering people can't be trusted and I hate them.

well - are you awkward ? do you like talking to people? anxiety?

Ask google ye spaztec

Join a club of some kind, start going to a language class or something. Just find a group of people doing stuff you find interesting.

Like, I live in a non-anglophone country and I can get plenty of socialization from just being an English speaker.

How about you just go talk to people?

go in a bar, drink untill almost drunk, find group of ppl having fun, not awkwardly go to them, say something like "dayum i like this place" or "check this or that", if they dont respond positivly, go to next group. Once u find a group who reacts positivly they wanna know who u are y no friends, say u just moved here, boom u got urself some friends. If u dont know anything about social behaviours tho; you will fail.

I'm sure he'll find a great wikihow article

It's a tough question to answer, but honestly buddy just be yourself and kill yourself.

Nice trips.

>how do you deal with no friends

You just get the fuck over it? You have to realized that not having friends isn't the end of the world. Just find something you love to do and go do it, don't waste your time worrying or whining, just do what's fun for you. I spend almost all my time playing vidya with only one good friend and I'm pretty happy with the way things are.

>current year
>having friends

this site is probably my main source of interaction to be honest
I don't think I'm awkward, just quite introverted, and generally no I don't really enjoy talking to people. Never liked socialising all that much, felt pretty draining. But since being out of high school I've found there's a lot less opportunities to socialise and it's been a long time, starting to miss it. Maybe it's just cause the option is no longer there.

>This

I don't know, find aardening club, an improv club, a DnD club, a French class, hell, it's not even hard to find otakus related clubs around here, and I live in Belgium.

Whatever you enjoy doing on your own time, you'll get to meet people who share an interest with you, breaking the ice is gonna be piss easy.
If you end up making friends, it's easy to get friends with their own friends.

>socialisig in a nutshell

I wouldn't recommand , that's begging for spaghettis out of your pocket, drunk people do dumb things all the time, it's already akward when the drunk fuck isn't a social autist, it's gonna be much worse if he is.

I don't think this is how you make friends.

i'm pretty much in the same situation. i'm starting to get fat too

I know it's not the end of the world, for the first 2 years I'd say I didn't care at all, it's just now it feels kinda shitty.
>I spend almost all my time playing vidya with only one good friend and I'm pretty happy with the way things are.
Like if your one good friend fell out of contact you'd probably feel kinda bad after a while.

i already did, it works like 3times out of 5

i warned him if not good with social skills tihen dont

He's not asking for friends you stupid ape

How old are you? If you are over 24 it might be too late to make real friends. However you still can get to know plenty of acquintances.

I used to be in your exact same situation, and as cheesy as this sounds, it'll happen naturally without you knowing it. You find the things you seek the most once you stop looking for it.

Guess I shouldn't knock it til I try it.
>Get drunk
>Approach random group
>"Dayummm check this or that, niggers"
>instafriends for life

Maybe. At the same time I could really just take/leave bring around him sometimes. I was never really a social person so I've never really had the chance to be actively social, so if you're coming from a place where you always had friends to hangout with and now you have none I can understand felling shitty. After a while you'll realise you can move past it, it's more and having a positive "this really isn't that shitty" mindset more than anything.

What about college? Are you done with it? Join some fraternity or sports club?

In in the same position.

I used to be one of the most popular guys in my town. Used to get laid ALL THE TIME... but the past 3 years or so I've been excluded from basically all of my old social groups activities... never get to go out anymore because I'm forgotten about...

I think it's worse because I know what I used to have, and now I have NONE of it.

3 years? hah you know nothing faggot

Why did you get excluded?

Guessing you play video games.

I cope by playing video games that voice chat is kinda recommended

>CSGO
>Meeting people on league/then skyping
>World of Warcraft Guild Raids/Rated battlegrounds/arena
>etc

how long u been alone then fag

Watch Game Grumps or Achievement Hunter or Two Best Friends Play. It fills the same niche as TV talk shows: prosthetic socialization.

Or you could recognize that you're a primate and your desire for social interaction is a biological impulse, no different from lust or hunger, and can be overridden with the same mechanisms one uses to stick to a diet or stay faithful to a spouse.

any language fags here? always want to go to spanish/french meetups but I always feel like it's not worth my time or I have work. Any of yall do that shit or practice speaking other languages online? just curious.

Go lick your balls somewhere else . You fucking dog

wtf

if u were the most popular kid in your town, you can be again, just move, change your life and move on. there are plenty of ppl everywhere. Ppl dont care about who you were when you meet them, they care about who you are.

Umm, find something locally that you like - sports maybe , find some friends there - start exercising, get your head back on track - reinvent yourself faggot.. you obviously think something is wrong since you made this thread

3 years? Try 14. I lost my circle of friends at 16 because I put pussy on a pedestal for 3 months. It left me with a bitter taste in my mouth. Not even interested to meet other people.

You find things to occupy your mind. The second your mind starts to wonder, you lose.

I know it sounds retarded, but girls. If you aren't such a sperglord that they feel threatened/creeped out by you, then they're probably best suited to force you into being more sociable.
I'm not even talking about a gf; I just mean females in general. When two or more of them are together, they talk constantly, and about things that they usually don't expect you to give a shit about. It's kind of ideal if you can keep from getting hung up on one of them.

All you have to do is nod and smile every few minutes, answer retarded questions about your masturbation habits. Presto change-o, you're part of the gang.

Just start talking about cars or WWII whenever they try talking to you about some shit you don't care about

I don't need friends as long as I have mommy, tendies, and Sup Forums

>The second your mind starts to wonder, you lose.
you just lose didnt u

Totaly true. I lived like that for about 2years, then i wanted to fuck one so bad that i stopped seing them lol. but i met a ton of ppl thx to them

Quite from it. From pulling myself out of bed back to resting my head on the pillow. I have more than enough to distract myself from those petty thoughts. I work 12 hour days, exercise 6 days a week, live and breathe all forms of hockey, play games and spend some time here.

I socialize enough at work which gets people wanting me to go out and do things, like dinner and such. I decline every time. Just not interested

OP you have 2 options:

1. Go talk to people, fluff their egos, act interested in them. Find what makes them tick and hammer that dopamine switch of theirs repeatedly. You will make friends.

2. Realize the purpose of loneliness in the human psyche: our ancestors needed friends because without a tribe to support them they died alone with a cheetah gnawing on their head. Loneliness is your genetic system doing its best to make sure you survive and reproduce and will reward you heartily with good-feeling chemicals for making friends. Realize this and suppress your biological urges, finding new ways to get those good-feeling chemicals or sense of "fulfillment". Good luck

I actually have friends because I'm not autistic. You should try it sometime

do you feel like a big man now

There's a guy who does this where I work and comes off as a huge autist

Oh boy, 23 now and the future looks grim. All my friendships have gone away or degraded to acquaintance again

Dude i know how you feel. I had the same problem when my best frend died... i didn't have no frends no social life for a year... but then i decidet that it's time to change. First i stoped masturbating then i started jogging, hiking and going to partys.
And since then my social life has changed drasticly i've mede a lot of frends...
So get rid of the old habits and find new ones that include socializing.
Good luck my frend

id watch anime and jack off all day. ah what it must be like to be free of all the bull shit

Hey Op , only have one friend in real life , feel extremely lonely too , i decided to take my life in hand asap , you should do the same

I was the same , but i just urned 20 and still virgin , only have one friend still , and i just need social contact especially girl i'm tired of being alone

Most autistic thing I read today. What if you didn't just move there? Are you gonna perpetuate that lie forever?

just an hero then

I know what you mean the saddest part is that the 4 people who I am close with I've never met. They are my online friends

Cannabis, Anime, and Music

Honest question:do you have a job? I've got no real friends but working five days a week means that you interact with people for 40-50 hours a week and then you enjoy doing the shit that you wanna do on the weekends.

I have hundreds of Facebook friends! Try Facebook!

I had friends, good friends. Now that we're in mid twenties with jobs and families of our own hanging out, drinking and hunting sluts together isn't really a priority. Out of 3-4 good friends I barely see 1 once a month. I work morning shifts airport shuttle and friend works night security.

Grow up op, that's just life. Find something that gives you purpose and stick to it. I suggest martial arts or lifting. The former will build new friends.

I took three years of Spanish back in high school and I'm currently learning German. Never been a club of any kind though. I practice my German by lurking in Deutschenfäden.

I too have no friends. I just play a lot of games and look forward to the day I get to pay a woman to have sex with me. I pay by the hour, so we typically have a lot of extra time to talk... I like talking to my escorts, they make me feel like I have value, you know, as a person.
