I would actually eat my lunch most days, but after that and during all other breaks, you could find me reading in the library, assuming anyone bothered to look. In fact, I seem to recall one or two lunches in high school where you and I ended up in there together :P. Not sure how many of the details I've told you about the move here, but let me tell you: going to five different schools over the course of only three years can really screw up your social life. Ironically though, the school at which I was the most miserable was the one where I had the most "friends". For the first time in my life, I was accepted into the popular group, and I hated it. None of the others seemed to really care about me as a person and whenever I was around them I got the impression that they just befriended me to shore up their numbers. Like the first commentator, I was the "weird one" in the group, or at least that's how I felt. Basically the first real, lasting friendship I made after 5th grade was with this really weird girl who came up to me in the gym bleachers at a school event, sat down, and started talking to me. I wonder who that was? ;) yeah, I was the same way from about 5th grade on (which is when I was stuck in a different school from my two best friends with whom I had previously spent all lunches and recesses).

I've been trying to push myself beyond my comfort zone and be social but there are times I'm just like, hide in the apartment. i think it's probably coupled with the fact I'm really, really missing Seattle right now and all my friends and family there to it heightens the loneliness and anti-social feelings. Thanks for the comment. I'm glad I'm not alone. :) @DESIREE haha long lost sister. :P Yeah I try to engage my co-workers in hanging out but mostly it is us going out and hanging out with Mack’s co-workers and doing dinner or just generally b.s.ing.

Maybe not the exact same situations but similar ones. I went from being in the same school from age 2 to 7th grade and knowing all the same people the entire time, to a different private school in 8th grade where I knew nobody and nobody seemed to like me. There were a few nice people in my class that seemed to try to include me (pretty much 2 girls and one boy) but when we'd get in a social situation with others then I became the quiet, weird one. I ended up becoming friends with a few 7th graders instead and ate lunch with them - which didn't help my "rep" anyway lol. I have a hard time making friends, I really only have a close-knit group here in Kansas and otherwise I have a few online. I wish I had advice for you for getting friends outside of, say, work but I'm not sure - other than talking to people. I find I meet people best through friends of friends and things like that. Do get-togethers and tell people to bring a friend, things like that. I totally can relate. Maybe not the exact same situations but similar ones.
