Why do I always feel like the outsider in the crowd?

Question

I have friends, but just looking around sometimes I feel like I'm hanging out with some of the wrong people. I love my friends to death, but some of the people that they hang out with are just losers.

Also, sometimes I'm reading over profiles and I feel like I'm some old lady or something. Everyone else my age is exciting and, well, rude. I'm not like that and sometimes it makes me feel like I don't fit it.

Write whatever you want honesty for answers, but if you insult you won't get 10 points.☺

Answer 1

u might have the good ability of being able to be an observer not a participant.... u  probably have more ability than, those around u, to understand and do greater things.

Answer 2

i have the same problem >:(

most of my friends have become pot heads, and gotten to be completely different people than i thought they were.  now i feel like i only have a couple real freinds, who like me for me, and i feel like i just do not belong at school becuase of that, and all my real friends go to other schools in far away towns.

anyway...if yuo make friends easy, try to just know some other people.  and trying to act popular wont get you anywhere. been there done that. good luck.

Answer 3

Remember that a lot of times, people put on a show for others. Many people act outgoing and like they are having an AMAZING time and laugh really loud, but inside they are insecure and just hungry for attention because their self-esteem comes from the opinion other people have of them. It sounds like you are a pretty sincere person and don't fake it like a lot of other people do. So please don't start. I would rather someone who doesn't like me avoid my company completely than act nice to my face and then say mean stuff about me behind my back. I don't know how old you are, but I'm 28 and I have 3 truly good friends and several more really close family members, and that is exactly what I want in life. You don't need to be dripping with friends to be fun to be around.

And just because people say things on their profile that seem super-exciting doesn't mean it's 100% true.  

Answer 4

Widen your circle of friends. You can never have too many.  It sounds like you are more mature. Get involved in some activities you like, you will meet more people.

Answer 5

Its normal to feel that way sometimes. As long as you stay true to yourself don't worry about fitting in. People should like you for who you are. And if you stand out, you are unique. Which, despite what some people think, isn't a bad thing. =]
