Hi I'm new here if you haven't seen my newb post yet. I just think that the point of this site should be to end loneliness and what better way to do that than by connecting with people in your area. I'm a New Yorker from Brooklyn. There doesn't seem to be too many lonely New Yorkers. At least I haven't met any. A little about myself, I'm a single black 19 year old female college student. A big part of my loneliness stems from having Body Dysmorphic Disorder. It's when you obsess over your looks and you feel really depressed about it. It can be a specific thing like your nose or something. You find yourself always looking in reflective sufaces trying to will your percieved deformity to change. Or bad looks or whatever. Any way I'm learning how to get this under control. I pushed many people away because of always obsessing about my looks. But I've met a couple of new people who I was succesful in highlighting my good atributes to and I don't think they even notice this problem I have. But I am lonely because of being this way for years and the people I do know have like 50 friends. I think I would feel more comfortable trying to build a friendship with someone else who is lonley. As we would have that in common. It would be so embarassing if my two new friend new that they were the only real friends I have. And that I don't even have a best friend. Is there anyone else who can relate to this? Its sort of a catch 22. Any way thats the end of my ramble. I hope to get some replies soon. Laters
