Depressed about being alone? - Fort Lauderdale guy - 04-28-2014 07:55 PM
I just turned 18, but feel depressed all the time about girls. I am a pretty introvert guy at first which gets hard at times and it just brings me down. I feel out of place often and just get stressed out. I try to open up and act extrovert but just feel out of place. I work and breathe with all extroverts and am bad with meeting other girls. I work at a college cafeteria on the weekends (still in high school, senior) and like this one girl at another high school shes going there next year but I have never met her before I see her all over social media but I went to school with her sister but barely knew her either. I don't know why I feel so attracted to her and she seems fairly extrovert and a big into partying. I want to talk to her but i would feel socially awkward and online would feel like a creep. I am going to a different college but we will be in the same town so it's just hard cause I like my job but know I will have to quit because it will kill me every time I see her. I try to forget and move on and focus on my own life but sometimes it just gets hard. Just looking for some suggestions. Thank you.

Well as hard as it may be if you really like her and want to know what she thinks of you there's nothing you can do but grit your teeth and talk to her. Online may seem like being a creeper but just explain to her right off the bat that you are shy and that's why your talking to her online. If she finds it creepy and doesn't want to talk to you then that's her loss for not giving you a chance and I wasn't meant to be. But she may totally understand and maybe then she will initiate talking to you face to face. At which point you just do your best and go with it till you get comfortable with her. My bf was super shy and awkward when we first met too and I actually thought that it was adorable maybe she will too.
