If you don't have friends, it isn't because God is keeping them from you.
I'm sure God wants everybody to be alone at times. Sometimes that's the only way He can get us to listen to Him. But I'm also sure that God wants everybody to experience the benefits of friendship.
If you don't seem to have friends, it might be the place you live. Maybe there isn't a big enough selection to pick from. Maybe you need to branch out in to a larger geographical area.
Or consider that it might be something in you that pushes people away. This can happen without a person realizing it, and without their conscious decision. If you think that might be true, find somebody to talk to: a counselor, religious leader, family member: somebody you can trust.

God wants you to have friends, and he wants you to have good friends. I will say that God would like you to take time our from others to talk to Him. But no, God doesn't want you to be alone. You are never alone, as God has said so. You have Him. Find ways to get involved with others. Join some clubs, take up some type of sport, get involved in youth groups at church if you are a young person. Church is a good way to make friends, ones that will not put you down, but will help build you up. Good luck. Now git out there and make some great friends! :)
added note to some responses. Come on people lets not be overly critical of someone here. If you can't help you don't need to respond with derogatory remarks. I say that respectfully. Just know that your words can hurt someone, in ways that you may never know, ok? :)

I feel like that sometimes, so don't get sad. God has a plan for u, u jus' unfortunately don't know what it is, yet. Sucks that way. But I beleive if u go on with yur life and act like friends are overrated, which in a way is true (cause at least u won't get hurt by anyone), God will grant u friends, and possibly he could have and u jus' don't know who he has picked for u yet. And u could have possibly overlooked them. So wait, this will eventually change. And even people might want to be yur friend, but don't ask to be cuase they think yur to kuwl for them. So don't fret, everything will work out fine.

If something keeps happening , there may (or may not be) be a lie spoken to you by the devil and you believe it and it has become a truth in your life and therefore God cannot speak life into it. It may be something thatyou have not forgiven, and so it keeps happening to you because satan has taken this ground and has therefore control over this in your life and can cause it to happen again and again. You must find away to find out were it started, and find healing in this area, so the wound can be healed and then the ground can be taken back and the reoccuring thing will stop happening.
IE. My parents always wanted me in the middle of their problems, and so I always findmyself in the middle of other people's problems, and I don't want to be. So I have to go back to were it started...were my parents put me in this situation and forgive my parents for putting me in this situation and then others will stop putting me inbetween their problems. I don't know if this is making any sence. www.theophostic.com

Why do you blame God?
If you want friends, the Bible says to show yourself friendly.
You never say WHY you don't have any friends. Get counseling and find out why you are "anti-social" and do something about it.
(No, I'm not saying you're anti-social. I'm saying that SOME thing you're doing is chasing people away, and in THAT respect, you are somehow acting in a manner that is not socially acceptable, or people would be your friend, and THAT is what I mean by "anti-social").

I think you will find that having friends or not having friends depends much more on your attitude or behavior than on God. But perhaps there is more going on than you know. Perhaps you are being protected from harm that you would get into.
Seriously, though, I really think if you examine your behavior you'll see that it isn't God, but you that gets in the way of friendships.

Are you in church? Get involved in group activities in your church. You have to put yourself in situations where there are people your age with similar interests. Be friendly and interested in the people around you. I'm guessing you are a little shy and withdrawn. Try warming up to a person or two and make a real effort. It will happen. You will make friends.

You can have any friends you want. Don't let a "thought" or unrealistic "fear" hold you back. You only get one life, you should enjoy it and make the most out of it. Be kind, have heart and show compassion to others and you'll never have to worry about not having good friends.
Good luck to you!

Why people blames own-made misery to God?
Look: God doesn't spoon-feed us. Once we make our decisions then He'll step in to give us a hand "when we are in need of it"...
Make your own decision and go on with life... It is not fair blaming such trivial things to God...
Chose your own friends and do-not-listen to anyone against it. Don't confuse men's "advise" with God's wisdom and specially His unconditional love for all of us.
-(and I am not so religious... imagine that.)-
