become outgoing
is it me? 11 months ago

I have been a very introverted all of my life but up until recently I haven’t had any problems making friends. I have just moved to a different country and I haven’t changed who I am as a person or the way I do things but I seem to be having a really hard time with people. I think that I am a decent looking human. I have never been called ugly, I have 10 fingers and 10 toes but I still cannot connect with these people that I work with. I just cant relate to them for some reason. I have no interesting stories to tell them, nothing. Maybe it all boils down to me being a boring person. I mean lately I have been just working, eating and sleeping but i have to pay the rent and after im finished working im to tired/broke to do anything else…but im not asked to do anything else…I talk with these people i laugh with them and I am extremely nice and i go out of my way to help them out when we work together. Maybe it is just because i have nothing to contribute. Since my move, my parents have gotten a divorce after 22 years..i am 20 by the way..i have left everything behind to move to a different country with my boyfriend of 2 years…maybe im just still adjusting…and maybe because i am older it is not as easy for me to make friends or maybe its because i am an american in england? I dont know….If you decided to read this giant mess of nothingness rant and feel the need to comment or are going through a similar situation and have any suggestions please contribute because i am sick of hanging out with all of my boyfriends friends…and i want to make plans of my own and go see a girly movie and do girly things! please help!

Aaw, it’s not easy adjusting to another country. I’ve been there myself.

Where is it that you live? Are there not some local evening classes/societies that you could join?
