I don't know what I am doing or have done wrong in this area of my life. Ever since I can remember I have been jumping from one group of people to another and have only managed to come out of it with one true friend. I barely ever see her anymore though, which sucks because I probably wouldn't feel so alone if I saw her more often. But this has sadly brought me to asking random people on the internet for help. I have basically hit what feels like my breaking point. I can't stand sitting at home on friday and saturday nights, or any night of the week, with nothing to do anymore. I need to find people that I can get along with and have the same interests as me so I can feel normal and less lonely. I have read a bunch of posts on yahoo answers and other sites on what I can do to find new friends and they all suggest to look at meetupdotcom and look for clubs and organizations that suit my interests but when I do look for things like that I can't seem to find people my age doing it. I am just in dire need of help with this.
So I guess I should list some things about me? I live in southern california Orange County area, I quite enjoy the production aspect of film, I like vintage fashion, I also enjoy pin-up photography, I've never had a boyfriend(or a first kiss), I love music (my guilty pleasure is the band hellogoodbye), I LOVE to travel, I like taking artsy pictures, I am the kind of person that is awkward in starting a conversation, I am quite self conscious, and I want to do something meaningful with my life.
With these interests I don't know if there is anything that I can kind of push myself to do to meet new people, but if anybody has any ideas or suggestions I would totally be open to trying new things!
I am just so sick of the boring life I am living right now and need to make a change and I feel that once I have done so I will feel so much happier and alive and wont have as much to complain about. I know that it all means that I will have to put myself out there and get uncomfortable for a minute before anything happens but I am willing at this point to get out of the rut I am in.
But I would really appreciate any suggestions you have as to what I can do, where I can go, and how I can gain confidence or something to meet new people cause right now it sucks.
