I don’t even have a job, life just sucks until you die it seems. I do understand what you mean about not being able to socialize with people though. I’m the same way as I’m very anti-social and very awkward and silent around people. I honestly wouldn’t care if I never saw another human being again. I really don’t care to much for “social” interactions.
Is changing jobs an option? Maybe you can, on the slide, do some job hunting. O and maybe you just need to find someone who shares the same interests as you for some socializing to happen. Shared interests is always a helpful springboard for conversations.
I found this job after looking for a new job for three years. Since I got this job (a year ago) ive been applying almost every day to find a new job. The problem with socializing is tgat most of the time I cannot choose whom i socialize with: my bf’s family thinks im weird, ppl at work mostly think im weird, and I lose in touch with ppl easily cause my interests are not very common. When I do speak with ppl, I am usually to eager, talk too much and ppl think im weird lol
In fact, I had to learn socializing like you learn a subject in a class, it didnt cone naturally to me. However, I still have a hard time understanding ppl’s nonverbal cues.
It’s good to hear that you’re at least trying to find a new job. Ah, I understand. I think quite a few people have difficulty maintaining the “right balance” in conversations, as well as picking up on nonverbal cues. I don’t think you should fret too much about that. Regardless, practice makes perfect. So, as long as you keep interacting with people, you’ll get better.
You could be engulfed in flames, screaming for someone to spray you with water, and I’d wonder what I’m supposed to be doing. Maybe that’s extreme, but I hear you.
I don’t like to socialize, even with family!
I have no friends at all, so cannot even if I wanted too. Hell would freeze over before I went out and met ‘new people’ The longer I leave it like this the harder it is, and it’s been too long, so it’s impossible for me now. Fuck. My work colleagues (or rather one of them) asks me what I did over the weekend, or what I did last night or what I’m going to do, and the answer is always the same – “nothing”. I wish they (she) would f off and stop asking me.
I feel ya! I don’t socialize with family or anything human. I had the same problem when I was at work. Every Monday morning at work starts with the “How was your weekend?” and every Friday evening ends with “what plans for the weekend?”. I hate that shit. They wouldn’t stop asking and I wouldn’t come up with a different answer anytime.
The worst was when my colleague asked me the week I got laid off. I wanted to throw my keyboard right on her face.

Yeah, that’s tough. My anxiety level skyrockets when eyes are on me. That’s when I just want to be in a dark place, soundproof and secure. Just away.
