Recently due to a bit of drama, all of my close friends including my best friend's family have changed churches, leaving me to kind of pick up the pieces. It took me one Sunday sitting alone in the row we used to all share to realize I don't really have a lot of friends outside of the church I got to. I want to change that. Growing up I've always been homeschooled, however, that didn't stop me from doing plenty of extracurricular classes/clubs (speech and debate, art, ballet, Co-op) regardless, I didn't very much "click" with any of my classmates. I'm very awkward and nervous around people (yes I have anxiety) and unlike most homeschoolers, I've met I'm not so academically inclined as to graduate two years early (yeah I'm not even joking TWO YEARS). I know I'm a little harder to get to know but I think I have a lot to offer to a friendship. I just haven't found the right people. I like to really get to know people, have deep conversations, just listen to music and relax, but also laugh and do stupid things. Isn't that what everyone whats? So why can't I find it?

Maybe because you want it so hard. Do not try to get into "deep conversations". Take it easy, step by step. Without noticing you will take yourself into social places :)
ReplyThough I wasn’t homeschooled my personality is similar. I recommend using an app like Nextdoor or Meetup to try to find people who have similar hobbies or ideas to yours. If you join that type of group, just put yourself out there and go to some events. It might take a few times if pushing yourself out of your comfort zone, but you’ll probably meet an interesting friend.
I did this with a couple of photography groups, and it worked for me. I hope it works for you too. 😊
