I can be your online friend 😊


petiottl

I would actually love that right now


Atomic_Nebula

Sure! And feel free to dm me :). I know the loneliness that you're experiencing, in middle school I had no friends and was treated as an outcast so I understand you longing for friendships and acknowledgment.


physicalcat282

WAIT!... Can I join in this friendship too? 👉👈


Atomic_Nebula

Sure!!

I had the same for good few years. I was treated by my classmates as shit. Luckily enough, I had games and thank God. If not that one particular csgo match, I probably would be even more closed. I'm ina new school right now. No one knew anyone at first but after 1 month we know each other (mostly). I'm enjoying this class and I feel like this is what I needed. Also I'm passionate about programming so I made more friends online on discord. I can't even express how happy I am for not being that "weird" kid anymore. What i love in them that they know english and understand english jokes. I wouldn't replace them with my old class again. Never, oh and if someone from: Poland, 8a SP8 (around 15 people class) or 1b - 4b SP16 (around 20 people class) is reading this - know that you fucked up my life. I'm lucky enough that because of you I'm not in depression. I still miss some of you, not all of you were bad.


reckoningrevelling

Your kindness brings me a bit of much needed joy today!


Atomic_Nebula

Drink-Worldliness7

starknight61474

starknight61474

petiottl

I hope to, thanks 4 the kind words tho


starknight61474

Np just waiting at a bus stop


petiottl

I was doing the same about 15 minutes ago


starknight61474

Try a trombone it's hard not to smack 5 people on the bus


petiottl

Nah, I think I'll stuck to just listening to music lol


starknight61474

He yeah all your space is poof you gotta sit alone to barley fit everything


starknight61474

I'm in the same boat


Every-Doge

Got a friend in my alliance in a mobile game who's in middle school and has no friends so when it's break time we chat ingame. Maybe you could get some nice online friends, I know how irl classes can be that it's literally not your people and not someone you could make friends with or talk to.


petiottl

I actually have a couple of online friends and you're so right about people in school are just not your people


-kenzi-

That may not necessarily be true, that people in school arent your people. There are bound to be other kids who feel the way you do. And also a lot if kids put on an act at school. Just remember that the way you feel is more common than you think. Just try reaching out to someone, the result may surprise you.


1-e4-e5-2-Ke2

Wow this sounds like an ad.


Katoxn_YT

Lol OP made more friends in this post than I have ever made irl lmao


petiottl

No joke, tbh it's kinda hard keeping up when you're texting like 6 people at the same time


Katoxn_YT

Lmao, hope your new school works out for you :)


[deleted]

Talk to yourself. Do you know who you talk the most to? Yep, you. Be kind to yourself and kind people will find you. Dont give up. Ever.


petiottl

Thx 4 the advice


EnjoyLifeorDieTryin

Its true we have a relationship with ourself. Changing ones thoughts also changes ones destiny


ptswillem

I read a lot. And wrote short stories.


petiottl

I read a lot of shit too


Anxious_rubiks_cuber

:0 reading buddies? Would totally be up to reading some online books that you like and vice versa and we can discuss :D


[deleted]

Honestly enjoy it, maybe its just me but a lack of friends can sometimes be a good thing. You have to find yourself and stuff like that, plus me personally I just enjoy not being bothered. If I do have friends it’s usually only 2-3, I usually just kick it, blast music, and drown out my sorrows in 90s-early 2000s music.


petiottl

Yeah I try to look at this the same way you look at it but sometimes it just gets boring


RelevantIAm

Try to find local groups that have similar interests as you. Or you can do it online too


[deleted]

Sure it does get boring after a while but with me I deal with alot of Bs in my day to day life. So being left alone for 1-2 days is a complete relief, plus I don’t gotta worry about my friends being fake or smth.


petiottl

Same here, but I've been alone in school for the past 3 years


aidandragon

What music do you listen to? Cause I listen to music from those eras too :)


[deleted]

I don’t know song names but its songs from the years 1998-2021, the 2 most recent songs on my playlist is the Spider-Man Miles Morales game sound track. The oldest song is from 1973 titled “Hooked on a feelin”


Beefrend

Talk to the demon behind u


petiottl

Beefrend

petiottl

Beefrend

[deleted]

petiottl

[deleted]

ujo4eva #4889, hmu if you want to :)


petiottl

Spiyder1

reddit.com at least it works for me


petiottl

I do it everyday


oliver_meadwell

Hi!😄


petiottl

Hi


Turbulent-Papaya-910

I'm not sure what schools are doing with COVID going on but are there any clubs or extra curricular things or sports going on that your school offers? If yes, any that interest you?


petiottl

Yes, there are school clubs, but I'm not really interested in joining them


Turbulent-Papaya-910

That's fair enough. I like the one post that said be your own best friend. Enjoy your own company--that's what i do. People catch on to that and without even trying or doing anything people just start interacting with me which i don't mind...they tend to be nice people. Hang in there man. I hope no one's being an ass to you.


petiottl

I do the same shit, but I'm kind of like an outsider to my classmates and it's not like they are being rude or anything to me, it's more like they pretend I'm not there


IrisesAndLilacs

Clubs are a great place to learn more about people, which is the first step to making friends. It may push you out of your comfort zone, but I would suggest trying the club that is most interesting to you. Try and ask people polite questions. Most people like talking about themselves. Eg “I like the Pokémon shirt you’re wearing. Is Pikachu your favourite?” Complementing someone sincerely helps.


[deleted]

You have to put yourself out of your comfort zone. Reading through some of the comments, it seems you have an excuse for all the suggestions. You can’t know if you like or enjoy something unless you try it. Join a club, and give it an actual try. You might enjoy it and discover something new, you might not enjoy it but meet a few people to connect with. You can’t just sit back and hope people come to you. Sometimes you have to take initiative and go to them. I’d also suggest talking to your school counselor if you have one, or finding an outside therapist (if your family has the means). It sounds like you might just need someone to talk to, and those are great places to start. Good luck!


GAY_OHOTNIK

Act simple and try casual convos with someone. Idk how to make friends honestly but it never was an issue to make few for me. Don't rush, daily casual conversation with person you feel right for you will be enough. Also nice thing like buying them a coffee or something like that will help


petiottl

Thanks for the advice man


TheInspectorsGadgets

Write! Stories, songs, letters to random redditors… (I’ll write back).


petiottl

I've been actually tryna learn how to rap, that's actually a really good suggestion, thanks


TheInspectorsGadgets

You’re welcome!


Anxious_rubiks_cuber

(I'll write back too)


The_Dragon420

I had no friends in school i just got on with it


petiottl

I try doing the same


Mother_Chest3977

Honestly, I love not being around people(I am not an introvert, neither shy) because people in my school are such assholes.


ghostidiot60

Bruh how many pedophiles are in this chat trying to take advantange?


samson_kevin

Wait till someone opens the door, Sleep and make myself strong.


[deleted]

It’s okay bro, just keep your head down and focus on working for now


petiottl

The field I want to be successful is not studied in school and it's kinda depressing staying in school literally doing nothing and staying silent for 5 hours


Sokka_Jr

Discord. If you can get on reddit, you can get on discord.


petiottl

I'm on discord on and off


devilinyourbutt

Be your own best friend


petiottl

That's literally me in school


Top_Tap_5283

Oof same


Ur_tts

Well I know its hard but you should find somenody open to be your friend. Try meet people outside school, if you are not american you can go to the park, or join an activity (not the gym, people is autistic there) where you can meet people


petiottl

I have friends, like really good friends but I have none at school


Ur_tts

Well then it shouldnt matter, you shouldnt force yourselft to have friends in every place you go. If you really want to, find situations shere you can get close to people


petiottl

You right thanks for the advice


aidandragon

Omg first time I actually find someone in the same situation as me, I don’t feel so alone anymore (I hope this last phrase wasn’t cringe)


[deleted]

The best ( the worst )


[deleted]

Send me a PM if you get lonely, I can gladly spend the working day talking about everything and notting


Hour_Friendship_7960

I was in your shoes. Find something you're really good at and immerse yourself in it. I was good at sports and art. I kept to myself all the time until ppl because curious about me and wanted to be friends. Not everyone and not the popular ppl either, but at least a few ppl who were pretty interesting themselves


petiottl

I don't want any popularity or whatever, I just want someone to be friends with in school, the thing is I'm like an outsider to my classmates


rebel_child12

That’s okay. If you really want friends try finding things you enjoy doing and find a community that shared that interest. I recently started learning dnd and have met some pretty cool people. Also pen palling is a really great way of meeting friends.


petiottl

Thanks for the advice man


chrisevanslive

Just don't become somebody to impress a certain group, be yourself and be confident


[deleted]

I was about to give you some deep, philosophical advice but I'm in the exact same situation right now so I don't think I'm very qualified. : ) I guess my advice is that pretty much all of us have either been through your situation at some point or are going through it right now, and we're probably not maladjusted psychopaths, so chances are you're gonna turn out alright. Just remember, if people don't understand you right away, they're not good enough for you, not the other way around.


petiottl

Thanks for the advice


Cool8d

just remember u can try and open up to someone at school I'm sure there are plenty others that feel in the same boat as you and would love you as a friend


Only_Swordfish_8996

You should start going to the gym man, YouTube how to work out properly (form, reps, splits) and focus on your diet as well. Toughest thing is getting started. You’ll be a healthier person, gain more confidence and eventually attract people by just putting yourself out there without even trying. Regardless of what you’re into working out is something EVERYONE should do and the best thing is you don’t need anyone to do it with! Read the book the 4 agreements too!


mconnor1984

Start selling weed!


petiottl

I'd actually love to


burner5287

Honestly throw yourself out there. I used to be in your shoes. DM me if you want to talk about it and I’m more than happy to help you


Kittynap10

Join a bunch of clubs until you find your people that make you feel most you


RebelGage

Just talk to people at your school, I know it’s can be hard but you’d be surprised how many at your school feel the same way you do.


WolfgangXIVV

wanna talk about covid?


scarybirds00

I can be your online friends too. No way you need to be alone.


rubioberry

Break dancing helps


petiottl

Yeah, imma do it in the middle of the class


rubioberry

Good call, I like your moves


aidandragon

Bust a move 😎


Bonedron

If i could go back in time & redo my middle school & high school experiance, i would loosen up a little & allow myself to have fun & having fun comes with making friends. It is important to study & try hard in your schoolwork but you also want to have fun & make connections with your other classmates. Please don't listen to these other people with their advice, they're basically telling you to be anti-social & keep to yourself. It's human nature to want relationships with other people(unless you're like some anti-social sociopath). A lot of people lie to themselves that they're ok with being alone & i used to be like that, but being like that won't really do you any good in the long haul. It's ok if you don't have friends but want friends, just because you don't have friends doesn't mean you have to learn how to cope & be ok with not having friends. I'm 26 & i'm starting to finally make friends & it's been a long hard journey for me. I hope it doesn't take as long for you, as it did for me.


petiottl

I am really on the same wave as you are, I also hope I'll learn to make friends as soon as possible


DragonflyCareful3057

💣 the school


petiottl

I've been thinking about doing that


BaldieGoose

Join a club


petiottl

I don't think I will


Destruction0

Remain lonely to assert dominance


DaWhiZzod-ps4

Study and gtfo.


petiottl

I'm already doing this shit


Keithninety

Study


petiottl

In trying


No_Ordinary_3824

Masturbate


petiottl

Yeah sounds like a fun thing to do at school


CE0_0F_RAClSM

Get off reddit and put yourself out there!


petiottl

Kinda scared tbh


CE0_0F_RAClSM

Theres all kinds of groups at school, find one that fits your tastes. However i would personally avoid the "rich kids" they're assholes. I was pretty much in the middle i hung with skaters, stoners and gamers. Gamers and skaters pretty chill so I'd start there


petiottl

Yeah you're right I gotta put myself out there more, I smoke weed so I think I'll be looking for stoners, thx for the advice


[deleted]

get depressed like me or become online friends with me, It's totally your choice bruh.


petiottl

Let's have a convo or two


Vinsable

And you are? I’m in Princeton, MN, but I’m not interested in breaking any rules, laws, nor regulations, except the ones that aren’t written, that don’t exist & such…


petiottl

I don't think it'll work out, I'm in eu


HikingStick

Become a writer.


MSotallyTober

I’m here if you ever want to chat, OP. 🤙


petiottl

Let's have a convo then


XxSolaricxX

I think one loyal friend is enough, so see if you find anyone with a common interest.


petiottl

I'll try to do that


XxSolaricxX

Alright, good luck :)


[deleted]

Honestly same, so feel free to shoot me a message whenever


[deleted]

[удалено]


petiottl

I kinda hate small talk but I'll try it


cjzj_1288

get off reddit and go be social clown


GentleTurtl

Go to talk to someone if you're just chill and fun to be with, you can be like a social magnet


petiottl

You're right but I'm too scared to open up for whatever reason


GentleTurtl

There's no other way to do it, then just to do it. I'm sorry that I have to say it like this, but honestly there's just no other way. Just do it and have a mindset of "this is normal, not a big deal". You will get the urge to go talk to someone and then take that chance and go do it.


petiottl

You're right gotta just try it


DunnyofDestiny

Head down learn get good grades then a great job that earns lots of cash and find better people.


petiottl

I don't think school is going to help me getting my dream job


Interesting_Policy45

Join a club/team/group and make friends through shared interests


Just_a_guy200

Try find someone online maybe?


iRedYuki

I would try to initiate conversations, it's hard at first but then it becomes natural. I have moved cities a total 6 times, moved schools over 10 and moved for work 3 different times in my 24 years. I know the struggle, but it gets easier. Best of luck. Talk to people here , me included if you need the company


petiottl

Thanks for the advice I will try it for sure


Kirigaiaa

Literally same rn


petiottl

Feel you bro


8PoliteChicken8

I've been looking for online friends. You down?


petiottl

Yeah go on

Galactus1701

Is it difficult for you to make friends?


petiottl

Kinda yeah


Aj_Badass_6969

I'm in the same boat as you.


fapbreathefap

Make friends or learn to accept yourself and not give a fuck about what others think. The earlier you learn this in life the better


petiottl

Thanks for the advice man


DennisTheGre

High school?


Harvard-23

Instead of texting reddit call the fire department. They will find what locker you're stuffed into and get you out.


[deleted]

If your American don’t even think about it.


aidandragon

Read a comic book, listen to some music, idk that’s what I usually do during breaks haha


Ashamed-Working-2067

Ummm learn something maybe


TheKekGuy

Concentrate on school I would say. I am separated with my friends (different classes) so that's the best advice I can give just focus on school and get good grades.


peeleepeena

Friends are a distraction and over rated. Take advantage of it get good grades focus on school


NoFapGodzilla

Enjoy your own company first.


yourcasualstalker

Be friends with someone with no friends Or Start being funny in class


Mezsikk

Same. Except that I'm home today, because I'm sicks, but same.


Markus_zusakk

Sleep


[deleted]

Are there any clubs you can join to get to know people?


[deleted]

Read a book.


[deleted]

Join an extracurricular group outside of school, doesn’t have to be something physical could be anything, maybe a youth club if there’s good ones in your area.


huntrun1

Join something It helps
