Social Disaster

Anthony

I am a social disaster, I struggle to make friends and life is becoming miserable. I shan’t waffle but any advice? Or anyone want to talk? I’ve got to turn this around.

  • Do you have any things that you learn or skills you hone to try to impress others?

    I think a lot of friendship is based on what someone brings to the party, in a sense.

    At the moment I have more or less no friends, except the odd one online.

    I'm trying to learn the acoustic guitar and keep on improving my diet in the hopes that if I get musically talented I'll be able to entertain others, and so they'll see me as worthy friend.

    It seems everything in life is like a bartering or trading exchange.

    Yeah what you say makes sense, I’m academic but being a history geek who likes the abstract or niche areas of history often doesn’t impress anyone - that aside I don’t always make the best decisions and due to struggles with empathy and social skills, I easily lose friends. At the moment I have the one - she’s been a friend a long time beyond that there is nobody right now :-/
