It seems no matter where I go I end up in the same place. It kinda starts to depress me. Everything starts off great, and I'm the talk of the town, everybody seems to love me, and things look like they will be great.

But then after about 4 years I become isolated. This is happening right now, and there's really nothing I can do to stop it. I'm becoming lonely here and I didn't notice I was until my own best friend starts blowing me off. He won't even talk to me anymore. It's been three weeks since he's said a word to me. I dunno why he feels like he can just stop talking to me and not tell why.

Anyway, now I really do have no friends. I had a few before, but they've started to slowly leave me and now I have no one. Losing him as well hurts because he was the only one who stood by me during a very difficult time.

So what's next for me? I really don't know. I'm too antisocial to talk to someone. But not so egotistical and upset to kill myself or anything drastic.

Don't stress yourself about it man. We all love you. And I have a bit of the same situation going on right now for me, unfortunately.

"But not so egotistical and upset to kill myself or anything drastic." - good to hear about it, while I was reading your post I was begining to fear how it would end

Answering your question: I don't think you are cursed. See, people come and go, this kind of stuff happens all the time to everyone. Nevertheless you may be feeling a little down right now - which is fully understandable - I bet things will become better because, in my opinion, when people leave us they left behind an opened door for new people to come in.

This is how I see the world: we got friends and we feel safe having them around, so we don't feel like meeting/knowing new people. So our friends leave us for many different motives, and what do we do as the social animals we are? We try to find new friends. And this is great because we not only have those good memories our old friends gave us but we also have the chance to build new good memories up that we will carry for life (and maybe tell our children when we were old). So, when we get older we will have had lots of different friends to remember and lots of nice stories to tell.

That's how life goes on for me. So, I think you're worrying too much on this, face it as a brand new opportunity to meet new people

" I'm too antisocial to talk to someone" - you're probably a little shy as me. Wanna know what I do? I subscribe to some course. Dancing, photography, theater, arts, anything. Not for the course itself, but for the chance to meet new interesting people

" Losing him as well hurts because he was the only one who stood by me during a very difficult time" - maybe you should try to talking to him, try to know what happened

So, what's next for you? Brand new nice interesting friends, I would say


And don't feel so down, jmc1097 is right, after all: we all love you
So I think I can say your are pretty much loved

I have a similar story as you, expect I was never liked.

However, since it happened when I was very young, I have become a sort of a "loner" where I can live without friends.

Now though, since I changed and stuff I do have friends in school so I don't really have problems.

I also do I have internet friends, but I do not count them real friends anyways .

I also have a problem trusting people (I don't give out trust points to anyone unless I really trust them), making friends with too many people (I don't want to try , I want to have a small friends list so I can manage it easily) and fixing reputation/relationships (I went to another forum and messed up a bit and now I been known as a noob and I even call myself that in that forum).

I say it all depends on personalty, I am someone who can live without friends, maybe you can't.

I am just saying you MIGHT become a person who can live without friends but will still like to have some .

If you are a person who really needs to be popular and friends then listen to flambeau and/or start small, like make friends with someone new and try to repair the relationship of old friends from there (a bit like a video game, huh ? )

Didowe : You should count people online as real friends. For one, it makes you more likable. And for two, whenever you say something like that it can lead to things like you being voted most controversial in the Vizzed Awards. lol

I'm the type that needs friends. And honestly, I am happy to have all my online friends, they treat me better than my ones in real life to be honest.

Brace yourself, bro.

Man up and be the alpha s.o.b you know you are! I know, I know, craps going on and everything is going poorly. Well guess what? Other people are like that as well. I've talked to you in the chat room, and dude, you're awesome! You're you! Don't let other people or friends get you down! I know the pitfalls of life have brought down your self-esteem, but that doesn't matter. Look in the mirror everyday and say how awesome you are. Never, never, feel down about this stuff. Ever. I mean it.

"Believe in me who believes in you."

"As you think, you shall become."

"...I mean, I really do appreciate everything you do. Don't let those other guys get you down, because HEY, they don't matter. And no matter what they say or do, you're better than that. YOU'RE YOU. So give yourself a pat on the back. You deserve it. Winner."

And, you always have your friends here on Vizzed to help.

It's said that the best way to make friends is to be one. As long as you stick out your arm and say "sup?", you should have a friend (around where you are) in no time.

PS : Don't forget about us. We're here for you, bro. We can be your friends, too.

All right, TJ's gonna put the comfort on...

I'm your friend. Everyone here is. And if he is the kind of person who would turn his back to you and blow you off, is he a real friend? But if you really don't want to lose your friend so easily, you have to examine what happened. I'm sure you weren't at fault but perhaps if you were, what can you do to make it better? And what is a friendship without struggles? In the past how have you two gotten past your problems? And I agree with supernerd117, if you want a friend you can't sit in front of your computer feeling sorry for yourself. Get out there, make a friend, be a friend. We're your friends.

How's that for inspirational? The next racist Dr. Laura, eh? Sigh, nobody's even going to understand the joke...

No, I don't think you're cursed. Everybody has at least a few bad times in their life. And you've got everyone on Vizzed as your friends! I think you're a great mod and I really look up to you! Also, I think that pretty soon, life is going to turn out good for you.

It only gets so dark before dawn. Good times, bad times. Good things happen to good people.

Now for the real advice: legacyme3, if your friend is treating you like that, he doesn't deserve to be your friend. Trust me, I was in the same place as you. I could never seem to hold onto happiness for an extended period of time. Something always seems to happen. I get made fun of even when I do nothing to instigate anyone. My father is a good judge of character, I think that I got that from him. I always had the feeling that you were a good person. I consider you my friend even though we've only really been talking since last week. However, time isn't everything. I find that when I am down, listening to music, talking with friends, and just typing/writing/drawing makes it much better. You're too good of a person, don't let anyone else make you feel bad. Your "friend" should feel like a horse's arse for ignoring you.

Look at me, I have made no new friends at my college. There's so many bad people that I have seen. I may not talk to them, but, I hear what they talk like, I see how they look/dress, I see the look in their eyes, the expressions on their face, I know their work habits, and so I can say that they're scum. I have nothing negative to say about the quality of your character.

I know that you probably won't let yourself believe this just as I didn't when my friends told me this when I was going through a rough patch in my life too. Be strong, persevere, learn to make yourself happy. Vizzed has really helped me now that the baseball season is over and yeah.

Focus on what you have, not on what you don't have. You at least have people on Vizzed that care deeply about you, you have a girlfriend, and you have your poetry, track, etc.

Remember, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. Also, don't let anything kill you.

I feel the same. I am lonely most of the time, none of my friends ever call me. My girlfriend broke up with me and never spoke to me again (been 4-3 weeks). Almost all my friends in facebook deserted me, half of them dont come online and most of the ones who do wont chat with me. I just try to do some fun things like playing games when i feel lonely or sad.

I find it helps to talk with a friend about it, i always did it. There was that one person who i always talked to when i was sad and she always got me happy and smiling ...but she left and doesnt come online anymore

But luckily things get better, they have for me even though some friends left me i have made a few new friends (like here on vizzed). I hope they get better for you too

Your not cursed you just need to stop thinking about it and move on with your life. Life is to short to worry about the B.S They did seem like good friends anyway. There loss! You'll bounce back trust me.
