so im 17 doing A-levels at college and dont really have m8s outside of college i used too when i went school ...well 2 or 3 that i could talk too then i moved. i tend to just be a nerd at college and do work. i dont know whether it's because i'm not part of this under-age drinking culture as i know i wont get served but then again sitting in a nightclub on my own wouldn't go down either would it. i have 1 friend outside of family and college. i probably dont make the effort. the hobbies i have are quite unsociable aswell (computing, films, tv) which makes small talk hard ok well films and tv aren't but... i guess i'm shy. even at school i was a "tag-a-long" as kindly pointed out by the group i used to "tag-a-long" with. i do chat with them mates online just no one goes out much now. i am academically driven so maybe it's me. i was in the library 2day some girls invited me over but then ended it with "every time i see u your on your own do you have any friends at college?" so i guess it was a sympathy vote or just to alienate me. i started noticing i have no friends for about 2weeks now and now it's bothering me. am i just an unapproachable person? if so what can i do about it?

i feel like a weirdo coming on to the internet asking for help and admitting i have no friends! talk about "hanging my dignity out to dry" so be gentle
