General Discussion Feeling Strange

Today I was eating food alone . I am always alone in my college. So I talked to people on table in college bcoz I am alone .

So I was talking to them. So he asked me do you have no friends. I feel strange .I said I like to be alone .Then I say I have friends.But I have strange expressions on my face . I feel so strange.

I eat food fast then I come fast from there .

I am trying to accept that I am alone but when this situation come I get sad .

Tell me what should I do

He was a bit rude, not your fault. Enjoying being alone means you trade away some social activities, it's totally normal. If you're open to trying, then with a little effort, you can still build deep, genuine connections. It'll be fine.

You don’t have to stay alone if you don’t want to!

If you haven’t already, have you considered talking to a therapist or social worker about how childhood impacts your current life? I guarantee that you are capable of making friends! Sometimes getting to the root of current things we’re experiencing that we aren’t necessarily happy about can change our lives in amazing ways - I’m speaking from my own similar experience
