How many of you would say you have decent social lives?
I really crave a better one these days...it's one of the reasons I hate living in the middle of nowhere. I want to live in a decent sized city so I can go hang out with friends downtown and go see shitty live bands with them like every night.
:(
Not me man
Mine sucks. :(
Mine is amazing and thriving.
yeah mines fine could be better
I'm not sure...
It's pretty bad, though.
'tis good enough for me.
Should have gone to Chili's
In the words of Willard Christopher Smith Jr.: Hell naw.
I live in Montreal, so I can't use your excuse either.
I really don't want my social life back.

You wouldn't rather have friends to hang out with and things to go do?
About as healthy as my great-grandfather who has emphysema and bladder cancer, yay.

You know, some people would prefer to have a few good friends compared to a bunch.

Introverts can still be social, they just need more time alone. You're mistaking it with avoidant personality disorder. hocuspocus;
Then again, it's better than mistaking it (them) with antisocial personality disorder. goonish

you should join like a club or a sport or some shit and work on your social skills.

It's something that should be worked on for the sake of your own betterment. If joining a group activity is too much for you - hey, it was too much for me, all I've done recently was... well, find a job spam; - there are still baby steps you can try. Stand more straight, look at people in their eyes. You may be already doing these things and if it's the case, I'm sorry for being presumptuous, but in my case I had trouble with those and I do a bit of effort to do them now. I don't know if it actually makes me look less shy, but at least
I feel more confident.

I have been thinking of joining a sport next semester, the only thing I really don't like about it is I'd need a current physical, lol I haven't had one since the summer before sixth grade. goonish
And I'm pretty okay with most of that stuff... All I really need to work on is being able to talk loud enough.
Silly presumptuous Thyme. hocuspocus;
I usually can talk loud enough, just not on interviews. :(

I think I'm speaking loudly, but then people interrupt me informing that I'm not and then I end up being quieter. :(

Not too long ago, I used to get angry at being told that and I'd say something rude like "listen closelier baddood;".

Mine sucks.
I only have about 4 friends that I really hang out with when I'm not in school.

It's actually kind of funny, because people at school think that it's impossible to make me angry, I guess I just have a bad habit of bottling my emotions.
It's decent.
Transportation is the main issue.
Once I drive, my social life will get better.
Personal Life - Incredible. Perfect.
Besides girlfriend - Decent. Normally a few times a month.
Over the passed few years, it has has improved greatly.

I'm not terrible, and really, for my school that's like being Tiger Woods. bassir;
and that's invasive ma'am, i'll have to ask you to restrain yourself when asking questions of me
I don't. Most of the time I don't care about either.
Mine is decent.
I have a lot of friends, but only a few that I'm really close with. I always have people to hang out with at school, and whenever I go to a party I always fit in, but it could be better. I want a girlfriend :(
sorry for the bump
Mine is pretty horrible. I may leave the house for reasons other than school/shopping once every two months.
i'm a ronery bastard :'(
i dont have one at all really
every "friend" i have has better friends they usually hang out/talk with

I'm getting much better. I plan on improving it even more and doing stuff directly after school with some friends when I return.
I haven't done anything with anyone for months now.

i just need to do stuff with them more often
I actually have a pretty good social life.
I see my friends everyday.
I am Asian
so everything social about me does not count
Only thing social about me in real life is that I go to the mall on Fridays and talk to random kids.
Some of them are really nice, some of them think that I'm just a weirdo...
Either way, it beats sitting around at home doing nothing. However, it's not much compared to the average person's social life.

If you were the person being talked to or the person talking?
Really, I just stopped caring what people think of me, or so I've tried. It's not going to change anything in my life by having real-life "friends." I've gotten along fine for all these years with my video games, books, math, Latin, and the computer. I'll live.
Eh, mine could use some improving here and there...

And, thanks. It's what years of bullying do to you. giggle;
My interests have really refined over the years, if I may say so myself. A lot of my personal change was brought about from Boyah, actually, because for the first time in my life, I was accepted. <3

Yeah. In reality, girls are meaner than guys in a lot of aspects. Years of being teased for being a nerd, getting straight A's, sitting around reading, my interests in general, my music, and getting a 101% on my Latin midterm...hey, it's made me a stronger person in the end, so I can't complain.

Yeah, which is what I've learned over the years. Oh well, I'd rather be myself. Myself and nasty. Not somebody else, however jolly.
If any of you know where that's from without Googling it, I'll love you forever. <3
Thank you for the karma, though in reality, it doesn't mean much. But, it does mean a lot that you're a nice person. :3
mine could be better, especially here back in my hometown. My college friends are a lot better than my high school friends. I've tried to ask my friends if they want to hang out over the break multiple times and they always either have something else to do or they never get back to me. Same thing with parties. Further complicating things is my shitty dump of a house and my lack of a license and a car.
My social life is so much better up and away at college. I can't wait to go back.
I think I do.
Spend quite a bit of time in my room, thinking of moving out with my two other brothers. bassir;
