How do i stop feeling so lonely and lost?
why do i feel so lonely and lost? I am a 21year old girl. I have spent my life being perfect. I have just finished a degree and obtained a first class, have got offered scholarship in the subject i love, i've never had problems making friends; when i leave the house, there seems to a million faces to say hello to that i know, i have close friends too, i have a family that love me, and i know this will sound quite conceited and i don't intend it on being so but i am also quite pretty and guys ask me out a lot, although, i have never said yes because i was always too consumed with studies. My life from the outside seems perfect. I have so many people around me and yet i feel so alone. I feel lost within myself. Even when i talk to friends or family, i nod and smile, but in my head i feel like i am a million miles away, an island of my own making. these days it pains me to smile because i know it is lie. Nobody seems to know me or understand the real me anymore. And my biggest problem is that i don't even know myself anymore. Why do i feel so lonely? and how do i stop feeling this way? this sense of numbness is shattering me. Please help! Thanks :)
I feel so lonely and worthless and want to give up on life. Help?
I asked 2 questions recently, one on how I have no friends and another about how I dont feel good enough to have a boyfriend. Basically, I'm upset because I have never had many friends growing up or in high school and those few "friends" that I have had never showed any interest in hanging out with me. As for the guy issue, I don't have any positive qualities that will make me stand out to a guy. I have never had a boyfriend and no guy has ever liked me. I'm also very shy around boys. I'm very dissatisfied with myself. Growing up, my parents put me down a lot and they had very pessimistic views on life and people and they isolated me from others. As a result, I have no faith in people (I always think I'm going to end up getting betrayed or heart broken), I'm socially awkward, extremely shy, and my self esteem is extremely low. I also don't have any talents (honestly, I am not good at anything) and I am not very intelligent. I don't have any motivation to do anything. I just sit at home every day by myself. While everyone I know is spending time with each other, I'm home alone with my parents. I'm 20 years old and I don't feel that life is going to get any better. I really hate my life and I am too much of a coward to commit suicide or anything, but I really have no will to live. I've tried seeing a therapist before but it hasn't worked. It has just gotten worse. Not only am I extremely lonely, but I'm also hopeless about the future. I can't see myself being successful or having a nice happy family (I dont think I would be a good wife or girlfriend and I'm sure whoever I end up with, if I end up with someone, will quickly get bored with me). Is there anyway I can improve my outlook on life and myself? Also how can I resolve my loneliness issue? I know I need to get out there and meet people, but I am extremely shy and it seems like no one ever wants to be my friend, even if I try to befriend them and be very nice to them. :(

Why do girls always hate me, I feel so lonely?
I'm a very nice and caring person, and quite shy, I don't gossip about anyone and I am always too nice to people for some reason, people say I get it from my mother. Even the people who bully me I continue to be nice too and it baffles me. In my last school I was severely bullied and all the girls hated me, even those who did not know me, one girl even used to smile and say 'I made her cry' as I was really sensitive, she used to be a close friend but I won a modelling competition and she turned on me. Girls used to start fights with me all the time and give me dirty looks, I felt suicidal and hated my life. I eventually moved schools and the first few months were great, but now I always feel really left out. My 'closest' friends didn't invite me to their parties, and one girl I was close to gives me dirty looks all the time, and I haven't done anything to her. There was also one girl who I used to be really close to, then all of a sudden she just stopped talking to me. I think it might be because the guy she has a crush on hates me (girls in my last school got him to hate me) so maybe she feels like she has to hate me too. She totally blanks me and rolls her eyes when she sees me, then yesterday I beat her in a race and she loves track, today she said 'Oh look who it is..' really harshly when I walked past her. I just don't understand. Why can't I ever be good enough? How come I have to always be hated when I am never mean to anyone? As far as I'm concerned I'm just a shy geek...why would they hate me? It hurts so much. I feel so alone. **I probably sound full of myself but I am not conceited at all, sorry if it seems like I am. I haven't even told any of the people at my new school I won a modelling competition, and I never brag or whine to people. I am just writing all this stuff here to get it off my chest. Thanks for understanding**
I'm 17 and my life just feels empty? I feel lost?
So basically, I guess I need more things to be passionate about and to fill my time. Like the biggest thing I have right now is exercise. I want to be a part time personal trainer, so I research exercise a lot, and all that. I work out hard twice a day. But that's like the majority of my day. I had a girlfriend over the summer, and if I wasn't working out I was talking or hanging out with her. I guess I just need more stuff to do, but I don't know what. I hate going through the same motions everyday, But I don't know where to start, or what to start. All I know is this feeling of going through the motions and overthinking is driving me crazy. I'm not sure what to do though.

I am so embarrased to tell my friends. I feel worthless. Undeserving of another job opportunity :( Advice please
I'm tired of feeling like such a lonely girl?
I am a nice girl, nice to everyone. I can be very shy around new people, but I have been in my group at school for 5 years and I feel like I've lost all my friends. I still hang out with them, they think I'm really hilarious with the things I say (in a good way) but I have no real friendship with anyone. My whole life I've seem to struggle SO MUCH with this, and I just can't fix it. I have social anxiety which can get in the way, but no matter how confident I feel, I just can't seem to make friends or hold a decent conversation. I feel really depressed and have tried to kill myself in the past, but there is NOTHING i can do. I just want to leave school (less than 3 years) and forget about everything. It's been bothering me A LOT lately and I have been really upset, and I cry myself to sleep sometimes (sounds lame, but i do). Is it my personality? I just don't fit in. My group like to talk about all their other friends, so I obviously can't join in. They ALWAYS call me weird (and im sick of it), but they still like me because I say some really dumb things, so I just stay that way. I guess I've become the 'clown' of the group because I want friends. I am an interesting girl I guess, I am really pretty, I am smart and talented, but I think that maybe my personality sucks. I really don't know what to do anymore :'( Can someone help me?
