Is anyone like me with 0 Friends?

and no I'm not referring to WP people or on AIM chatting more like socialization hanging out etc. I have my family but I have ZERO friends. Of course I don't get out and meet people much since I don't have a job (I get SSI) and I was in College but was suspended in Feb.2005 so that environment for meeting people is gone. Not to mention the fact that my behavior upsets family,friends,students,teachers,coworkers,bosses (I had one job and kept it for 3 months then decided to quit but during that short period I upset a coworker. Boss upset is more "Go DO THIS OR THAT" Typical Boss stuff)

Hmm...almost but not quite. My dilemma is that I have a few good friends that I have managed to keep over the years, but my family is the problem. I talk to none of them . And the times that I sometimes do talk to them, it's never a wonderful experience for me.

Lucky me. I've never been in that situation. I've had the feeling that my friends were more like aquaintances though. I don't feel like that right now.

My only friend is basically my cousin.

I have 0 friends. Don't even have the excuse of not being in college because I am at college. People just don't take to me for whatever reason.

Yes. I have 0 friends. (my current wife was my only one, before she recently decided to dump me )

It's hard to make friends when you have none, because of the stigma attached.

Lack of social interaction also eventually makes you act even weirder, so it's kind of a vicious circle. I try to make small-talk with work colleagues to keep me sane.

i have 0 friends too.. it's no fun.
&quite hard to make friends when you have none, ie 1 good friend can often "vouch" for you in social situations.

Yes, I have 0 friends. But in truth I rather have 0 friends than be around people who mistreat me and take advantage of me. In my life I've figured out one thing. Having a genuine 'friend' is almost impossible. A friend and someone you know are two completely different things.

Outside my family, my only friends are cats. There are a couple people at school I talk to sometimes, but I don't really consider them my friends.

Another 0.

Right now I'm okay, but a few times in my life I felt pretty destitute. 17 was awful, because I had one good friend and he didn't even go to my school. 22 was worse, because I literally found myself ALONE. But that was the year I started praying heavily, and struck a deal with God- either help me form these ties, or help me to fully accept the situation if he won't help change it ... I think God delivered that time.

Making new friends is a *****. Period.

I have one friend, although he is a total weirdo like me as well! The world needs more weirdos

I have a couple of good acquaintances that I get together to play board games with, but that's it.
