I do not have any friends and i don't know why. I don't know if its because people just don't like me or I just don't like them. I feel like it is very difficult for me to meet someone that I can relate to, as I feel like I actually don't know anyone I can relate to. I feel bored when I go out with most people, I don't drink or party therefore I feel like I have no interest anymore in even attempting. Can anyone shed some light?

Relationships often come out of similar interests. Do you have any hobbies or things you like to do? Sports? Maybe you could at least find someone to go to the movies with and things that don't require a lot of one-to-one time.

I would be bored with some people, too, and am also not into drinking and partying.

I am another non-drinker/non-partier. I have made most of my friends by taking classes. It takes me a while to warm up to people, so I find that classes that go on for at least 6 weeks are best.

I also don't think there is anything wrong with having some people that are activity partners instead of close friends. Friendships can develop that way. If you do things you like to do, you won't be as likely to be bored, too.
