hi all ive introduced myself b4, but never reli bothered to come back on. I basically lost friends and confidence at skwl. Now im at college.

Without any friends i feel its impossible to make new friends, becoz its obvious i dont have any and dont know where to start.

Does any1 feel the same as id like 2 make online friends so at least that wd b something.

Yeah same here, don't really have any real friends, just a few acquaintances. Beyond college/internship I don't see any other people other that my immediate family.
I don't really know how to go beyond the acquantance stage.

Yes I can very much relate to the situation. After I moved I lost all my friends, and never really got to make any new ones. So I feel the exact same way.

Hiya katie, I have YIM as well. rayacle@yahoo.com

I find it harder making friends but lately since I have been trying this positive thinking stuff I have been attracting more friends. It really WAS my fault, I was scaring people away with my depressing attitude. It's tough to keep at it though, but I'm going to work hard! Like I always say : We deserve happiness too!
