I'm 15 and I just don't get into hanging out with friends that much. Like, I have friends and I talk to them all the time on MSN and stuff, and I see them every week at church and sometimes I'll go to the movies or something like that but other than that I don't really get into doing stuff with them. I'm homeschooled so I don't see tons of people every day either. I like just hanging out at home. I mean I don't see alot of people my age every day but it's not like I'm just sitting around doing nothing. I cook, play on the internet, listen to music, watch tv, etc. and then every once in awhile do stuff with friends. Were any of you like me? Are any of you like me?

I wasn't homeschooled but I spent a lot of time at home. I didn't really go out with friends much; there's nothing bad about spending time with other people or alone.
If you're happy it's fine. If you're not maybe you could join a group, volunteer and count it as part of your schooling, or even switch to a regular school.
You're not going to turn out weird or anything just because you don't see a lot of other teenagers. Don't worry.

Being 15 is a funny old time, for anyone and yes I sometimes didn't want to be with my friends. However, as you are homeschooled I would suggest that you try to interact more, as I would assume that you already spend less time with your peers. The thing about being around other people your age is that, even if you don't see eye-to-eye, that is all part of growing up. Conflict, conflict resolution, conversation, communication. I'm not saying go out all the time, just try and make yourself sometime, you might just enjoy it. Good luck!

Sure. I was kind of like that. I had friends and was generally on good terms with them but I think I was somewhat of a lone wolf at the same time. I liked to do alot of reading and playing guitar, etc. You are probably just the type of person that doesn't get lonely easily. You can do your own thing and have a good time without always having to hang out with people. And there is nothing wrong with that. Nothing at all.

Im just like you are. and my fionce dosent understand why I dont like do stuff all the time, and then I realized that im ADD and I have seasonal depression. Im on a few pills now but I still dont go out much but thats becuse Im pregnant. You should ask your doctor to test you for ADHD, and ADD and you might want to mention something about depression, becuse a lot of the time your hibernating habbits can get worse as you get older.

no, because i go to a highschool, and yes because i barely hang with my friends even though i see them everyday. on occassion its to the movies or a friends house for a party of some sort. so kinda the same as u since im not into the hanging out 24/7 thing.

I went to public school and I was kinda like that I would hang out with the people I meet at school only at school. I never would hang out with people outside of school untill I went to camp, I meet somegirls and theose were the people I hung out with outside of school.I pretty much stayed home otherwise But I didn't really start to hang out with people until I could drive myself

I'm just like you. I have friends, but I dont really like to hang out..i talk to them on yahoo, and thats about it. I don't like talkin to them in person, b/c it seems like I never have anything to say. But as long your happy, thats all that matters!

The whole planet is full of people like you, there are millions of people who don't have a huge collection of so called friends.
The only question you need to answer is this, are you happy?

hehehe....wow...nice to know u havemany things to do with friends.
No im not like u..coz i do fewer activities ;)
UR 15...things change girl...u might become more extrovert...or maybe more spiritual..
But take my advice...ont try to become social for someone else.
It will only make u more irritated and u might loose some friends ;)
Best of luk.
