So where do I fit in? |
I'm an artist, I'm into alternative lifestyles, I'm basically different than most of my peers that are in the 18-20 age group, but in a way, I'm a normal person seeing as there's others who share my lifestyle, but howcome it's so hard for me to find friends? So far, I haven't been able to "keep" anyone (as friends) who share my interests. I pass them by every single day or everytime I go out to maybe metal shows, or an art gallery, with their friends, hanging out, but what is it about me that isn't appealing to others? I'm not physically repelling, I know that. Is it because the lifestyle I've became accustomed to is formed around one ethnic background that isn't mine and I'm going to have to make the effort to prove myself to these people? I guess this is turning into a rant, so I apologize. My problem is that, I know I'm a good person, and not to say this in an arrogant way, but I know I'm interesting and different. So why can't I find friends? where do I start? I just want to say that I have the same problem. I'm an outdoor nature lover kind of person. People don't like me. I haven't had a female friend since I was 13 ... 12 yrs ago! Girls always want to do boring crap like look at themselves in the mirror and look at guys and stuff. I spend large chunks of my free time hiking and walking my dog in the woods. I have no friends. I guess I'm different.... I don't think I really like people? Be happy with who you are. This is what matters!! where do you start? by showing an interest in other folks and participating in their activities Where do you live? Maybe you need to find a location that more people who live your 'lifestyle' reside. Are you in a metropolis area? I tend to avoid people, because people (in general, no one in particular) suck. To fit in with a most people you have to conform to their way. You're probably not conforming to their way of doing things. In other words with any group of friends there is always one that makes most of the decisions for the group and the others follow. You probably don't fit in because your not quick to follow. Just find one or two good friends and hang with them. Do you usually go around telling people how "unique" you are? that might be turn off to a lot of people. I don't think you need to prove anything to anyone, just be yourself, relax and remember you don't have anything to prove, just be cool. Don't try too hard to fit in. Can you find anyone that attends the same events as you do?Are there clubs in your area catering to your lifestyle?Maybe you just don't make a good first impression.Could you be a little nervous when you're out with people the first time,and it might come off as being something else. |
