I have such terrible luck making new friends. I have really developed a bit of a hang up about it. I recently befriended somebody who I thought I would have a lot in common with and I just really don’t. I feel like something is wrong or unlikeable about me. It’s the same pattern. I invite people to do things and invitations are turned down or aren’t extended in return. People always have their established friendships. I don’t drink and I’m quiet and bookish so that doesn’t help. Hubby has no interest in making friends so we have no couples that we hang out with. I see people on Facebook hanging out with friends and family all the time and it makes me feel sad. I shouldn’t compare my life to others... Yet lately I’m doing it a lot. I do some volunteer work and I have even formed social groups of my own. No real friendships really develop. Either I need to start drinking and partying or just give up I think.
