I feel so detached from the world. I grew up on a farm and have never really had many friends (none that I see more than once a month). I've never been part of any social circles. Even if I'm 'with'a group I still feel separated, somehow.
I just moved to the city to go to University. After my first year and all my best efforts I still feel like a lonely little island. All the people I've met still have their high school groups and I can't seem to break in.

You probably lack experience in making friends. It does take effort which will stretch your limits. Yet, stretching those limits will pay off. Push yourself to step out to talk with someone interesting, even if for a few moments only.
You are special because you are God's child. He has a wonderful plan for your life. I am an introvert too, but I am trying to learn what I have advised you to do.

This may sound dumb, but when I wanted to make a new friend, I gave the person a note face to face that said,"lets be friends", but then I ran away and hid behind a bush. He and i are friends now and the next day he thought about responding to the note writing on it Hypothetical High Five. At lunch I started hanging out with him and his friends so now I actually feel like i belong to a group......because now I do! It worked out for me so I absolutely know it will work for you!

You need to wake up everyday for the next few months, look in the mirror and tell yourself outloud how beautiful you are and wht a good person you are. It may sound dumb sweetie but it works. Dont worry about any lil clicks, start to say ho to anyone you walk by just hi and smile. The more you try to feel like you hve to belong the longer it will take. Just get a new attitude like I own this world and I am special and people will see and feel it when you meet them. It will al start to work for you................good luck and stop worrying about social circles. Sometimes they are much more hassle than they are good darlin
