It's just people. They're billions of them and they're mostly a burden. The time will come when you meet some bitch, settle down, and have kids. Just enjoy what you got until then. -------------------- Your god is dead, and i killed him. The moment you refuse the human rights for just a few, what happens when that view includes you?

	In these days, you can get 2 hours with a bombshell hottie escort in whatever flavor you want, with a cherry on top for $300 to tide you over as well.? Google escorts + your city.? Stay away from the $50 specials....? Lol!

	Im not looking for sex. Im looking for a friend, someone to talk to, someone to spend time with. It is depressing being alone all the time and I am becoming more and more anti-social as the days go by. My panic attacks are getting worse too when im around other people. All I do is try to stay strong and "man the fuck up", and nothing positive comes from it. This dating site thing was a last ditch effort to try to meet people... I havent felt SO shitty and worthless than I do now. I try to rationalize it and think of reasons why not a single fucking person has even given me even a shred of a chance, like maybe I posted some bad pictures or maybe my profile is poorly written. I seriously do not understand anymore and its making me hate who I am... like Im not good enough for ANYONE, not a single fucking human being on this planet It is SO disheartening, I cannot begin to express the pain I feel on a daily basis, because I feel like such a loser, SUCH a loner. What is the point of all this pain? What is the point of trying SO FUCKING HARD and seeing 0 results? Not even once! I cannot even justify those odds with a positive thought.

	hey, OP, have you thought about maybe attending some local shroomery gatherings? the people here are great and many of them would love to be your friends, i'm sure. i'm probably not anywhere close to you, i'm not really close to anyone, but i do have a PM box that is always open to those who wish to use it. i know you want someone to hang out with, but i can offer what i can give. if you ever need to really talk, just shoot me a PM and you can have at least a moment of my time, mostly likely more. (don't be discouraged if i don't respond RIGHT away though, i will thoughtfully respond when i know i have sufficient time to. ^_^) -------------------- -- Accept my heart warming gift of TREE SCRATCHIES!!!

JaP: Nothing, I tell you.

	Anon #1 Sorry to hear your situation.? The only advice I can offer up is to figure out what hobbies and activities you enjoy outside of work, and engage in them locally.? Sharing time in a group with people who share your interest is a inherent precursor to friends. I recently broke up with my long-term girlfriend after we had moved together to a new city.? Now I've lost my social safety net, and I've gotta get back into the world again.? I'm about go embark on the same journey you NEED to embark on: Seeking out local interests. Go do it. Today. Join a chess club, yoga, shooting club, local kickball league, ANYTHING.? Just go there, try to be friendly but not creepy/needy/isolated/etc.? You know, all that normal shit. Try to have a good time.? Grab a drink or two at home before you go to the place if you want to take a edge off (just don't become reliant on this, or people might pick up on it and assume you an alcoholic).

	ive become VERY VERY withheld when it comes to meeting groups of people... i have panic attacks even being around good people... and I do actually do Yoga, which I LOVE. Im afraid to show weakness around people. and even when im doing yoga, which is supposed to be extremely relaxing.. it takes a LOT to hold back the panic attacks.

	Aw, OP, I really feel for you because I've had anxiety before and though it was caused by social situations it would still effect social situations. And when I first moved to Philly I knew literally no one, I moved in the summer before I started college and I just felt lonely and lost and it was terrible. I think that you should seek help for your anxiety. I can guarantee you that the things you think about yourself are mainly borne out of that anxiety. Once you get to the root cause of that and learn to manage it, being social will become so much easier and thus, meeting people! I really hope things look up for you! -------------------- Before you, your mom and dad used to Smoke in the Texas sun - They were young once too.

Don't mean to hijack, but what if you are introverted and find it hard to talk to people? I'm in a similar boat and I'm deeply involved in a couple activities. But in most cases, I don't see the same people outside the activity.

	those girls on okcupid get literally 100s of messages a day. the ratio between guys to girls on there is absurd. even average looking uninteresting girls get hit up constantly so their egos are out of touch with reality. it is 100% a numbers game, if you are above average looks wise, tall, and have your life on track, still only like 1 in 20 attractive girls will respond to you, so its not just you lol.
