Help.. I don't know what to do..

[Aloft]

Hello guys, I made this account for my friend, but she allowed to have me post something here before I go back to my main account.(I want to remain anonymous but no, on serious matters, I have really bad "friend making" abilities. It seems everyone one I talk to is either not fully comfortable with me. I try to make friends in this site, but I come out all awkward, and that scares them away I guess. I'm very shy, and it hurts my courage to see this happening.. I want to break out of it! Can any of you tell me how to become more friendly, and make more friends in this site? I've tried being kind, giving away items, etc., but it won't work >.<

I'll be your friend
Idk, maybe tell us your interests/hobbies? I'm assuming you play Animal Crossing right

A lot of people become friends when they have things in common :3 I used to be shy too (well I guess you could say I still am in real life) but I am pretty different online. I'm just more open and friendly, idk how to explain it ><
I guess I'm shy because I'm afraid of being rejected or turned down, so I end up not trying at all to build a relationship :/ I'm getting better though !

 

[Aloft]

Yes.. Of course! Um, I play acnl, and I really love reading, gaming, playing the violin and clarinet, and sleeping.. I don't connect with many others, because all the girls these days are only into makeup, fashion, etc. not that I don't like that, but I rather prefer gaming. I'm more open online as well, particularly because people do not scrutinize my looks, as they cannot see it.

I hope I don't seem too closed off.. I just don't know what to say

 

[KermitTea]

oh hey, I play violin too
IKR i don't like makeup either and I like games :c
what books?

 

[Aloft]

Ah, I'm just starting the violin, and it sounds pretty bad. Do you have any tips? I have a long neck, and my arm supporting the violin begins to throb after 30 minutes, give or take.
Right now, I'm reading "The Girl of Fire and Thorns" my favorite books are Angelfall, WorldAfter, The divergent series,the hunger games series, and the legendary series.

My friend told me to read Divergent, but I haven't gotten around to reading it yet :x I'm a percy jackson addict XD
Ahh, I know how it feels when your neck aches. With each practice, you will slowly get used to it and the throbbing will go away. Try practicing in intervals (10 mins, rest, 10 mins, rest). Or maybe you have your shoulder rest adjusted wrongly?

Get involved. c: That's the best way to make friends on this website. Posting, getting on the IRC (chat), getting on Mumble (voice chat program thingy) & etc.

At first it might be pretty intimidating for you though. There are already huge groups of friends that have formed. You're bound to fit in somewhere. Just keep at it. Keep coming back, keep contributing to discussions.

It took me a month or two before I got attached to a group of people on here. {:

I don't think so.. I positioned it flat on my collarbone. Ah thank you! Have you upgraded your beginner violin? I'm a huge fan of rick riodans books as well! And I've seen people rushing to "buy collectables" I know it's rare and all, but what's the point of it?

Hello~~ Nice to meet you~

I have no problem in making friends and I like to be friend with someone who I can talk to but I find it more comfortable with someone I meet online^^ And don't worry, TBT is a nice place where I met a lot of nice people here, talk to them even we just stranger behind the screen.

Hope I don't interrupt the friendship bond here xD but I also love to read, play games and sleeping (so sleepy now in the noon xD) but, but I don't play music instrument >< hopefully that don't make you reject being friend with me =P I do learn guitar but many years ago. I am more interested in leisure relaxing hobbies and money spending! I failed to grab collectibles in TBT but in RL I love collecting lots of toys~

Ahh I don't know what else to say anymore xD in term of books~ I love non fiction alot =x Book with fiction I love to watch movie instead xD cause I read to make me sleep better xDDD
