Your social life...

[flim.geek.chic]

I have a very close knit group of friends and we go out for "mini adventures" all the time.

I'd have to say that mine is pretty good. I go out fairly often, so yeah.

 

[Death God]

Sadly, I've begun loosing my social life. It may be induced by depression but still, it has gone down quite a lot compared to what it used to be.

 

[blankedboy]

Most of my social life is at school. It's still the holidays for me, so I'm not seeing my friends very often.

I was about to proclaim my self king of procrastination but I kept putting it off

Well played sir...

My social life is facebook lurking and meeting a close friend or two at the mall once a month or so, being occasionally mesmerized by the atmosphere and realness of everything, thinking maybe I should get out more, then going home to the internet where I don't even bother signing in on msn or skype most of the time these days. No school anymore, so there goes forced interaction.

I've made quite a few friends at school having been a wanderer from group to group, but I find it hard to assert myself in typical group situations and not feel like a tag-along. I have a quiet voice and natural awkwardness. I used to get this weird unexplainable feeling sometimes, I think it's called malaise, I've noticed in recenter years I've been getting it only in social situations.

I'm not as uptight and self-conscious as I used to be (I can actually eat normally in public and look certain people in the eye!). I've sort of danced a little (albeit probably with an "I don't usually dance I'm probably just humoring your all" vibe) and do weird things without caring, I'm relaxed. But overall it's not often that I immerse myself and interact with my environment to get the most out of things.

I also have an aversion to commitment sometimes. Starting a conversation with that person is committing a certain amount of time to them until it's socially acceptable to break the conversation off. It makes me a bit uneasy. I can go without being with people for a while so long as there's the prospect of being with people and I can fantasize.

I try to avoid my friends when I'm not at school/protests/places I have to be. I prefer being alone as often as I can, so if I don't HAVE to be around other people, then I won't be. Although, on the whole, I guess I have a fairly balanced social life - I go out on weekends and after school, and then hibernate in my room alone whenever I can. It's probably an unhealthy habit.

I wish my friends went to protests. What they do is walk around shops, eat, try things on, complain they look fat when they're not, buy useless overpriced junk on a whim, and complain they have no money. I guess it's good to have a few nice friends to just talk about light hearted things with, but I wish I was a part of something with a sense of purpose.

I might sound a bit defeated and whiny, I better go do something with myself, haha. I'm not that self-absorbed <_<

I never had a social life until i was about 17 then i actually spoke to people.

But to be honest the people i became freinds with are fairly dull. All they are interested in drinking at the weekend. NOTHING during the week. I need a bit of veriety and excitement in my life, i don't want to live in Groundhog Day.

Plus they have no interest in trying to speak to new people or females so any chance of me meking new friends or meeting a girl when i'm with them is quite low.

I feel like I know you, like we've been living the same life...That's just surreal.


I never had a social life till I was about 16, when I was dragged out by one of my friends at school. The group used to be pretty big back then and it used to be a laugh.

One by one the group began to fall away untill only 3 of us were left. We do nothing during the week, at the weekends if we do meet up it's to drink. I have no confidence, the other guy of the 3 has no confidence and the girl is quite happy with the group as it is. As a result, we don't meet/talk to new people and meeting a girl is a virtual imposibility.

It's left me feeling quite hollow to be honest, that for so many years now everything has been the same, hell when we do go out it's always to the same bar.

Yep same thing. Dragged out by friends, we had a big group to begin with, all had a laugh and slowly people began to just leave(this one guy fucked about 3 girls in our group so they all fell out with each other).

Which has left the rest of us just hanging out mainly because we feel like we have too. I text and phone people all the time but get the old "i'm tired/can't be bothered" routine.

And yea we go to the same bars all the time, and usually the ones that are full of old drunk men which just make me fell pathetic, haha. But do you get the awkward silence when you realise you've been at the pub for an hour, and barley spoke to each other because you have nothing actually to talk about? I get it farrrrr to often these days.

...And now I want to cuddle you very much. So...*cuddles*

Awww. ^-^

[kakaomasse]

im still waiting for my life to begin.

 

[Zaverexus]

School takes up way too much of my time. But otherwise i like to go down to the neighborhood park and practice parkour; get some exercise and fresh air. I'll hang out with friends sometimes, but I get enough of most of them at school and enjoy time to myself

 

[jigilojoe]

I live on a beach, it's awesome, spend 90% of time there in the summer, in fact I'm only here cause it's winter, but by this time of year I'm back to my skinny, nerdy self, got some good gaming done in the recent months though. Man I can't wait for the summer.

*gasp* I now know where my life is going to go from here. I won't need a social life if I can go swimming every day!

I just thought I'd write something other than "what social life" which I've seen a dozen times on this thread.

 

[Kortney]

I see my friends a few times a week. I'm perfectly content with my social life.

Hurrah for me. I guess.

 

[Worr Monger]

Good to see so many people like myself lacking a social life...

.. You'd think so many people that don't have a social life, but probably have a lot of the same interests (hence being on the escapist) could create one if they're near one another.

Talking on forums is a lot easier though.

All my friends from school moved away, now I mostly hang around family... or go out with co-workers that are 10+ years older than me and/or are married, with children.

I have a tendency to borrow other people's friends.

 

[D34DW1NG]

Used to hang with my boyfriend, now I just play guitar, browse the internet, hang with friends, and mostly go to school.

 

[Cowabungaa]

Once a week I go to a gaming club in a nearby town with some now-regular folks and we play boardgames together, talk and stuff. We're also setting up a D&D group with some peeps, should be fun. Maybe in a year or so I'm better friends with a couple of them, who knows.

Other than that, nothing. Hell I have no actual friends in my day-to-day environment. I just work (school though, hopefully, in a couple of months) and hang behind my computer. It's boring but at least I have that gaming club now. Up until a few months ago I had literally zero people I could talk to about the things I like.

 

[Mondai Randy]

I go out alot , too much for my own good sometimes , when I don't go out , I read , play video games and be here and another message board

 

[Amberella]

I barely have a life. -.-

I do tend to try to get out though. It sometimes works.
