I can relate. For the most part, my boyfriend and a few people from his family call or text me. Every turn of the moon or so, I'd get a text from a friend or two but nothing substantial. :/ The realization that people don't really communicate with me actually doesn't bother me too much for the...

The selfie trend stubbornly seems to be sticking around. I, too, feel uncomfortable smiling in pictures that I try to pose for because it feels so made up...unless I am genuinely happy at the moment. And I always feel weird trying to take photos of myself while trying to smile. I've looked at...

Hello! :) Welcome to the forum.

Its okay to not always know what to say. Silences, like words, should be shared with your special someone too and the right person for you should be comfortable doing this.

Meh, it wouldn't really make a difference for me. As long as I can't predict what you are going to say next, small talk wouldn't be as horrific. Wouldn't it be nice if we got into a full-fledged discussion or debate the moment we meet?

Hopefully when you go to the out of state college, you'll meet other new people who are more accepting of you regardless of your religion. Meeting and forming good connections with new friends can make a difference in your mental well-being and I'm hoping this will happen for me as well; since...

What exactly would set "true love" apart from "love"? Would true love mean dying for the person you're truly in love with in order to save him/her? Would true love mean giving up the last bit of your favorite chocolate cake? What makes love "true" or "not true" anyway? Love that is "not true"...

I don't understand how people can do that either. I've observed and watched others socialize, but I just can't replicate the behavior of those who somehow manage to easily find a new friend like finding a grain of sand in a beach. I know I don't exactly poop rainbows and sunshine like some of...

I'm a night owl by nature. Its past midnight and I'm still awake. I blame the unequal distribution of energy my mind gets everyday. Its hard to fall asleep when your brain won't shut up!

Welcome to the forum! :)

Uncertain.

I relate to your post a lot; since I often think if making and maintaining friendships are really worth it. After all, most of the friends you make won't be your friends for life. For someone like me, making friends is difficult and socializing can seem like a chore. I have my fears of being...

Fair enough. Yup :) Thank you for the welcome!
