So ive never had a true friend before most of them treated me like trash or were just horrible so i gues sive never had a real friend before. becasue of that i have trust isues so i dont make online friends and it dosnet feel the same as meeting someone across the street.

ive never had a lover either i kinda feel very alone which is pretty sad honestly and ive had a har dlife so far which dosent help. im depressed and horny and those two are bad together so what do i do. i find it ofly har dto make real friends and i feel very limited too and i get scared when talking to people or meeting someone.

For absolute sure, this is the way.

Find a martial art you like, a sport, the gym, fishing, Magic the Gathering shops with casual play sessions, whatever it is, you'll be surrounded by people having a good time doing something you already have in common.
