Losing the will to live Options

[IfICouldEscape]

Basically got no friends, no girlfriend, the one I want I can't have, I can't get over, someone spread a rumour about me, not true, feel like shit, I bottle it in my room every day, noone I feel like I want to turn to despite my parents being fine and that, don't socialise, depressed.

How do people make friends lol? All the people at my school I just don't like, or they don't like me, I have developed social anxiety, basically I fear talking to people now, never know what to say, feel as if I'm being judged, I can't break the ice, it takes me agessssssssss to get to know someone properly to the point where when I walk by them I can stop and talk and not just walk by either ignoring them or just nodding my head. I haven't been able to get to that point apart from 1 person who I hold to my heart as a real close friend. I never know how to take a friendship further after the first meeting or two, with me it just seems like they become nodding pals after a while and I'm just thinking what am I doing wrong excluding the rumour but in different environments. I start to think I'm just such a boring person when they meet me. I find that there's nothing for me to see someone for after the first meeting point or 2/3 etc. I feel like a stranger to them and don't seem to build and connections. Sometimes I just talk to them for the sake of not looking like a loner but really I'm just bored of them and vice versa most likely. I'm starting to feel anxiety when I talk to people I hardly ever do or when meeting people for the first time. That way I find it more comfortable to just avoid talking to people all together, I even avoid talking to anyone really, at least I feel calmer. I seriously don't know what to say to break the ice, it really affects me. Any suggestions, thanks in advance.

Exactly, moron.

That's for the acting comment.

Honestly, just because you two don't share an opinion, it doesn't mean that he's a moron.

LOL

That's like a cop askin me to refrain from punchin someone after the cop witnessed the person punching me. I'm just not gonna listen. Eye for an eye, that's how I roll.

That's what I thought. People you need to be careful on what your going to say. What you say has consequences.

The problem is... this forum board isn't a place to ask for serious advice unless it's associated with photography, image editing, web development etc...

We have children in this forum as well as adults. No one here is a psychologist nor psychiatrist. We're both immature and mature, we make both serious posts and silly posts. We also have different lives, lifestyles, brought up differently, had different experiences etc... there's never gonna be a 100% agreement.

We mock and disrespect each other and not care about getting off topic when the thread goes to crap to begin with.

Eh. I would never say "Suck it up to someone" since you really don't know what life they are actually living in. What you say has consequences. Plus it could be someone look for real advice since no one probably listens. From experience, I know what happens. Please be kind.

I was being kind to the OP... I'm just not gonna be sympathetic. Especially after this post:

Who said these are my only life problems? I have other very serious ones to contend with as well but can't discuss. What I've posted isn't a main cause for depression, it just topped up something else and kind of becomes one.

Being kind is good, being sympathetic is useless.

Now you go from one extreme to the other, I said what I did in response to your aggressive comment explaining there was more to my life than just this to contend with, however you then thought I was trying to get a sympathy vote. What am I supposed to do??!!
