No one is ever going to want to be with me

    I'm ugly, got no friends and am pretty much a social outcast.

    It's depressing.

    Me too! But I've managed to come across someone in the world who doesn't find me ugly, and is also a bit of a social outcast. We fit perfectly together. You hardly think you're the only person in the world like that, now do you?

    Don't panic. Change any aspects that are changeable if you feel it'll make you happier. And learn to live with and love the rest. You'll be fine in time. Enjoy yourself and it'll all work out right! :)

    Aww i bet there loads of ppl that wul luv to be freindds with you :) Its probley because you feel like this that you don't see it, but go up to ppl and start talkin and invite them to things, don't wait to be invited.. You could be sending ppl vibes that you dnt want to han around with them ..

    just put yourself out ther n i guarantee you will met ppl who will like you just try nd get out of this mind frame :)

    Next time you go down to the shop, how about smiling and saying please and thanks to the person serving you behind the counter?
    When you visit the pub, how about asking the barman how he's keeping?
    If you are on the bus how about striking up a conversation with the person sitting next you instead of looking out the window?
    Why not experiment by talking to everyone you meet during the day. A few words only and then move on?
    How about getting to know the names of people who you see everyday so what when you see Tom or Mary or whoever you can ask 'Howye Tom?' or 'Howye Mary?' and they'll reply and ask how you are?
    How about walking with your head up and look people in the eye?
    How about being friendly and cheerful?

    You'll be pleasantly surprised.

    Sorry about the text speak :)

    Shh we are trying to be helpful. If thats your attitude all the time then that could explain your problem!! People don't like being around people who bring them down .

    Look around you, look at all the different couples, tall girls with short blokes, fat blokes with skinny girls, there is someone for everyone, its amazing how people get together.
    Now, join a social group so you can get used to talking with the people. Think of something you have an interest in.
    Sports clubs
    Art, photography, painting, the list is endless.
    Go to a gym and tone up, it will help your confidence.
    Go to Debenhams or Brown Thomas and ask for advice on what to wear, again this will help with your confidence
    Go dancing - great way to meet girls.
    Just live life, get out of the house so you experience something other than TV and have something to talk about.
    Dont try too hard or worry about it, just have a good time and something wonderful will happen!
    Good luck
