I actually forced myself to make a few friends years ago but ended up ignoring them and am back to being a hermit, I just find socializing so damn draining and having anxiety doesn't help. Anyone else?
>>
You don't need to force yourself. I'm an introvert and don't give a shit about having to much friends. Though people who are real you should have friendships with. But is hard to come across. People you just hang out with wont last. I have no close friends, but I'm close with my family. Also waiting to meet better people. Either way, I will always be an introvert and be a "quiet person." As an introvert you can do many things on your own.

Yeah I don't mind being alone but after a month or two it gets kind of lonely...oh well at least I have porn I guess.

Being an introvert is making me drop out of college because I got too tangled into this friend group I have been living with for a year (sharing the same fucking room)

I can't take it and at this point I have no choice but to keep living with them if I stay. I'd give anything to go back to being an invisible ghost no one interacts with or cares about

Well I probably would still have dropped out either way, but this shit pushed me way past my limit. 3 more months and I'm out of this social hell

warren christian fuck you faggot

Having a job with friendly coworkers is good for this. I get my socialising fix talking with them periodically throughout the day, then can go home and be alone in comfy solitude.

Although sometimes I wonder if this is actually a health way to live

>Friendships come and go
Obviously that's why you make the best out of what you have. Some of my good friends are muscle-heads/lanklets and it works out because if I get into a fight they'll back me up.
Having movie nights with snacks and a group of friends is really fun too.

One of my best friends is an introvert and browses boards like this and we have the best banter. He's a different ethnicity then me so we joke around and threaten to cuck each others womynz, talk about politics, etc. It's pretty funny desu.

friendships are too draining and time consuming. Plus most people are annoying and have flaws. Fuck 'em.

Just find other introverted people to be friends with.

I see my friends once maybe two times a month. We usually stick to talking online if we do talk.
>>
>>35987130
Same way but I'm good friends with my brothers friends and brother and I have at least one close friend I see regularly. People like me otherwise I just choose to stay in my room away from people. This is fun for me.

>can barely stay with my girlfriend for more than a couple days without becoming completely miserable and irritated
>starting to lose old friends slowly because I never feel like talking to them when they message me
>never able to hold on to potential new friends despite suppressing my autism enough to actually get along with people when I see them
I miss when I was in high school and my nerd friends would just leave messages in a group chat and we'd just reply whenever we felt like it. Now I gotta talk to normies all day and I can never find a single fucking person who I even relate to.

>Forcing yourself to make friends
I'm an introvert as well. I'm doing the same thing right now and what you said usually ends up happening. It seems to me that making irl friends is extremely difficult and draining while making online friends is easier. It's the act of making friends without the addon of in-person anxiety. I met a good group of lads about two years ago and I'm still good friends with them. Honestly, try to make friends but don't force it down your throat. My best advice: find one person that you really connect with and stick with them. Take one good grape over many sour grapes.

Hang it there, anon.

i really fucking hate being an introvert sometimes

>never want to go out, especially as i get older
>sit in bed complaining about how lonely i am

literally the worst.

Being introverted doesn't mean you don't enjoy socializing, anon. You're possibly just socially inept due to low self esteem and lack of training.
Autists keep mistaking introversion for their shit social life but this only means you don't need to get energized from other people. Normal introverts still have friends, and girlfriends, and wives, and jobs. They just don't need to constantly surround themselves with people 24/7 in order to get shit done.

Not sure what you're on about.

I'm an introvert and have a few close friends. When I'm with them, I can be downright gregarious. I'd never ignore them, because they more than fulfill any social cravings I might have.

A lot of the folks here sound unfulfilled rather than genuinely hermetic.

I rarely want to go out and meet new people. Staying at home and reading a book or watching television is more than alright by me. Occasionally I'll take trips overseas and abroad, often by myself. If I want to have a conversation with strangers, I'll saunter into a hostel common room and start one.

Being an introvert doesn't mean that you have to be awkward or incapable of being confident.

Every so often, I'll find someone I click with that. Always amazing when that happens, because it's rare. But I don't sit around feeling sorry for myself in the meantime.

hanging out with people feels like i'm wasting time, it's not because i'm socially anxious. i get pissed off that i'm not successful yet so i do a bunch of shit when i'm home alone trying to find some sort of meaning.
>>
>>35988299
You haven't found the right people you enjoy hang with, yet you crave social encoubters. Keep working on it anon. Introversion, in its most basic definition has nothing to do with isolation or fear of interaction

Yup. Every friendship I make eventually ends in disaster.
