[QUOTE="Ben, post: 2015494, member: 212478"] Hello, I am a teenager and I seem to be having trouble mingling with my peers. I generally will talk to them but often people turn around, they all seem more interested in their friends than me. I am not seeking attention or anything, but I just think that maybe I might need some friends. In fact, I cannot really say that I have had any friends who are not more than acquaintances - never had any close friends or anyone who I could sit and talk to. I don't expect too much out of anyone, and I think the main problem may be the way I am behaving, however I see no problem with my behaviour. When I am with my parents, people often compliment me, and tell me that I am very polite and handsome and stuff, but they tell my parents, not me, perhaps I just am not approachable or something. I will probably need to go into more detail if your answers are not exactly what I am looking for. Trust me, I've probably heard what your going to say before, if so, then little I can do helps. Stuff like joining clubs, going to groups with people who share my interests and stuff is not much of a solution, the same problem occurs. Any help? Thanks :) I would not say I am shy at all, I love meeting new people. However, it is true that I don't really share my peer's interests. If I faked interest in the stuff they are interested in, I would be living a lie. [/QUOTE]
