I Have No Friends and Need Some Friends

I lost all my friends because we went our separate ways after high school. I have a boyfriend, but he has 0 interest in anything I like or what I want to do. He's my only friend, so in a way I'm still friendless. Not sure how else to make friends. I'm a pretty weird person, I've been told.

It's okay, normal is overrated :)

None of my business, but if you have a boyfriend that doesn't have similar interests how can you be a couple?

@SW-User Hard to explain. We love each other and we get along. We understand things about each other no one else has. He just doesn't have interest in shows I like, things I wanna do, or even my family. Things like that. I do question us a lot.

You say you get along, what do you even do if you don't have similar interests, unless you just do what he likes?

@SW-User We usually just sit in the basement and watch TV, which I don't mind, but it gets boring.

I can understand how hard it is to make friends, I don't really have any myself. I'm socially awkward lol and pretty odd myself lol.

Simply understanding eachother isn't enough to fuel a good relationship between two people. Don't be with someone you don't have fun with otherwise that's how it's going to be as long as your with him. Don't expect him to take a sudden interest in your activities, and don't settle.

@SW-User Thanks. Unfortunately I'm pretty attached now, and I know he cares about me, just shows it differently than most.

I know it's not easy, but go out meet new people in places you like where you'll meet some people you'll have common interests with. You like Doctor Who? Check out a place like Books-A-Million places that specialize in "nerd culture". I should follow my own advice lol

@SW-User If I lived in a city I'd love to go out and meet people. No where out here but Walmart 😂
SW-User
Wow, we don't even have that out here 😁 the city is an hour drive for us

Lol well you're not really missing out. People of Walmart is the truth.
