There can be a number of reasons for this. Growing up we're lead to believe friendship is easy and natural but really it's something to work for and pay attention to. It takes time and efforts on both sides to keep the relationship going. Also when you're not forced to spend several hours a day with the same people, friendship is harder to find. You have to look for potential candidates yourself instead of choosing your closest deskmate. And that's when you're not suffering from mental illnesses that makes it even harder to be social. All in all it's hard, it's something to be earned by both parties, which is something that few people get. Often time people expect friendship to come their way almost by accident when I really think you have to look for it and take care of it to sustain it.

Trying to get friends is hard, believe me I know. But don't get sad over that. The good people that you are ment to be friends with haven't arrived yet. Maybe all you have to do is take the first step in greeting people and hey, maybe then you'll have friends! :)

Well.. Having friend is really a boon.. But formal relation with them are hurting coz as we go on expecting much its been hurting.. No one comes near in your pains.. They are for just hi n hello.. Or they have their prior things rather than me.. N i am self sensitive to not hold on people like that..

Perhaps you don't make yourself noticeable and you are shy or push people away. Try to connect with people and let them in, but if someone tells you something you have done and don't like, correct it, forgiveness is awesome

We create our experiences through the words we say. Positive experiences arise from positive words. Having no friends could be one consequence of something that happened in the past related to friendship or to a friendly relation which has ended negatively. It's not easy to answer to such a generic question anyway. Having no friends could depend upon so many different causes and not all of them could be related to something we did or something we said. One thing is for sure: we shouldn't look for friends to avoid loneliness or to replace a state of mind which is somehow painful. Friendship is such an important part of human life that cannot be the life jacket of our problems.

You just have to get out there and meet people. You wont make any friends by sitting in bed! Just go meet people!

Perhaps you haven't found the right group of friends for yourself. It's not that you are not friend-worthy, perhaps you are more particular about who you want to spend your time with. That's okay! You don't want to be surrounded by people that don't respect you and accept you, those are not really the people you should call friends. My suggestion, go to the places or websites that draw like minded individuals and see where it goes. Perhaps you like the arcade or you enjoy to gym? Finding people with similar interests makes it easier to find friends.
