Can't find friends

Need help

I cannot find anyone to have as a friend and keep as a friend
or that special person. I dont have high self confidence either
so making friends is hard.

I dont think i'm doing anything wrong my friends are just settling down
with their partners having kids etc and i'm getting lonely as i
dont have that special person. Where i'm living i cant have
pets and there are two couples living in the house too and its
been unintentionally rubbed into my face as there are only two sofas
which are being occupied by both couples so there is no where for me
to sit except the floor if we all wanted to watch the tv. I dont really
mingle with them as they or i are never really in the house except the
evening and thats when the sitting room in occupied so i usually end up
in my bedroom watching tv/dvds which is sad.

My family think i should move away and start afresh where no one
knows me and then maybe i can find decent friends and perhaps
a partner but i dont want to just yet but its really starting to make
me miserable. I've just been told that the two couples want me
to leave the house as they dont wish me to be there anymore. I havent
done anything or at least they're not telling me if i did.

I dont know what to do.

Take a look at daft.ie there should be plenty of rooms for rent in your area. In my area there are alot of empty rooms. Often you can find single rooms for €250.

Find a house share with other single people. You mightnt end up being great friends with any of them but at least you should be able to have a chat and watch TV without feeling in the way.

OMG i cant believe it. Update

I have just been informed that one couple are accusing me of being the reason they are fighting so much. they are saying since i've moved in which is about 5 months they have fought constantly and my comment made two weekends ago was not appreciated and taken offensively. When i retaliated by saying that i had apologised and was accepted they came back and said they never accepted the apology. They also went on to say about i dont do cleaning chores. I clarified I clean after myself every time and when i want to do housework etc the timing is never right. I am rarely in the house except weekdays and when i am doing stuff i have to be quiet cuz someone is asleep etc. I am not winning they've just ganged up on me. Its so not fair. I dont need to put up with this bullsh1t I'm moving out

yeah move out as soon as you find a place. Living with couples is a nightmare, theyll always take each others side so its always 2 against 1...or in your case 4 against 1 cos your living with 2 couples - poor you. Forget them and start looking for a place asap.
