Hello everyone! I am a 19year old female.. I recently moved and I have no friends here, everyone I meet through work are all party animals (and I'm not into that scene) or A lot younger than me (16 yrs) and I am really lonely, I don't have much money so I can't join like dance classes or anything. I do have a boyfriend and his friends but they are 2000miles away and I only go there a few times a year. I am starting school in September so I am hoping on meeting people then but for now I'm so lonely, I have been for the past year or so. Everyone I meet is OK but we like totally different things. I do go to church and I have been to the young group but its mostly 9-16year olds and the only people in the group who are my age are guys and they all want to date me (im not being cocky but its true! Its really frustrating) So I sit alone on fridays and Saturday nights. Its really bothering me and I don't no what to do or where to go. Any advice??

Also I used to have a big social life, so it sucks now :(

Lol if your lonely then meet people on here. Get email addresses or phone numbers. You never know, you could find a great friend.

Oh! I think there aren't much people that are "good" friend material at our age. Im 19 too and I find it hard to have good friends although I do have a few best friends but other than that not really.

Is there something that happened in your life that lead to it? For me we moved to a different city and I felt like an outcast till you start getting out there and you ll meet more friends just like how I did it.

Try joining clubs at school, meet people from getting a summer job and ask them if they want to hang out after, volunteer and there will be some people your age volunteering as well. Basically just get out there and do the things you like and you will meet people with the same interests.

Do you know any people from school that aren't that close? Try to do something with them and who knows they might be your best friend afterwards.

I used to live in this town when I was younger and then just moved back, but now I realize my old friends are party animals like they go out and drink all the time and hook up with guys all the time. Its just not a scene I'm looking into. But another problem is I don't drive, and I live a in an odd place, and I don't want to meet someone and have them drive me everywhere.. u know. This is so upsetting for me. Also my boyfriend has a HUGE social life and I always see his pictures of Facebook and it upsets me more because I'm missing out on so much in my youth. I feel like I'm at a deadend being 19 and have nofriends.. :(

awwww h0llister. I don't hang out with friends as much either so I hang out with my family lol better than not hanging out at all although it would be nice to go out with friends =P. Yah not much as a party goer too, I guess that's why we don't have much friends. But yah, hmmm friends shouldn't have problems driving friends around!! That's what friends are for =P

you know actually I don't think you should focus on this that much. DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO!! Have any hobbies? Music? Dancing? Do those!! Be happy by yourself and you will attract friends into your life. =P

I have hobbies but I can't afford to pursue them. Its been over a year now of loneliness uhhhhhhhhhhh sooo annoying

It's just something that you could try and get started and maybe continue it in the future. I can guarantee that you'll be successful in the process. Things might need to be re-written some though for the words to fit with music. That's something's that's common to happen when writing songs.

What I meant was the type of music that you're able to play, like reading it from actual sheet music, tab, classical, rock, jazz, folk, etc.

If either of you do want to try your hand at writing a song, please do so in the Writing forum topic area. That's one of the areas that I moderate, and if something goes "oops!" I can fix it then.

We could discuss what to title such threads here, though.

Actually I met my ex in toronto... she came there for a family vacation and then we did long distance relationship for 1 year. Known her for 5 and 1 year of being together in that 5 years. Its been hell and she finally gave up on me and told me she wanted to be with this guy that is closer and that just confessed to her out of no where. That hit me out of no where and I didn't see it coming.
