Why do I feel socially stuck outside of school?
Hey, I could really use some advice. It’s been a while since I’ve hung out with friends, and I’ve noticed that outside of school I struggle a lot with conversation. It feels like there’s just nothing to talk about, even with people I know well.
There’s also a girl I like, and the only time I really have a chance to talk to her is on the school bus. But by the end of the day I’m usually exhausted and already stressed, so I avoid it. I keep overthinking everything, worrying about being awkward, annoying, or getting rejected, and I end up creating worst-case scenarios in my head that stop me from doing anything.
I feel like my own thoughts are what’s holding me back. Has anyone dealt with this before? How do you stop overthinking and take small social steps without burning yourself out?

FUCK you all!!!
The next lovely woman who comes along is my target… I don't want to be such a fool and give my heart away to someone anymore.
In my dating life, I think I like men in theory but not in practice?
I joined hinge about 2 weeks ago bc I feel like I’m ready to be in a relationship. I’ve been matching with different men but I’m literally so bored talking to them. The conversation is so dry and it’s hard for me to focus. Also, I feel like I’m boring so I have not motivation to keep the conversation going?? Currently, I’m pretty comfortable being alone, partly because I’ve been looking for a job and my industry has taken a hit so that’s more important to me. Idek what I would do with a man? Am I supposed to feed him? Give him sunlight? I’m not sure why I posted this but I need to get it off my chest.
I've been working since 1978! Ask me anything!
I delivered newspapers 6 mornings a week from the age of 10, got a cash job working in a fried chicken place at 12. Lucked into grocery store jobs at 14, and then moved onto public transit jobs at 20. Became a city bus driver at 23. Could retire as early as age 55, currently aiming for 60. Life turned out quite well!!
Ask me anything!!
should i break no contact with my father for money?
im sixteen, im (hopefully) going to college in september and i need clothes since the only clothes i have are ridiculously over the top and the only shoes i own are a pair of chunky heals so they arent very school friendly.
i would buy new shoes or clothes but my predicament is my mother hasnt got enough money, she barely made it stretch over christmas.
my father works at an oil rig and has a sketchy business on the side and brags that he is rich so is it cheeky if i ask him for some money to cover what i need for college? he hasnt spoken to me probably since 2023 and the last time we actually talked were arguments because he was treating me like shit on a shoe and not his daughter.
he has not once paid child support, he didnt give me money or gifts for any christmas’ or birthdays so really he sorta does owe me something considering i am his daughter and his first daughter at that.
at the end of the day, he is my father so realistically he should be giving me money monthly for clothes or shoes or whatever i need yet he is not.
Why is it so hard to do the simplest things sometimes?
Like, I’ll have a plan to be productive, get up, make breakfast, maybe do some work… and somehow end up scrolling my phone for two hours instead. And then I feel guilty for not doing the “simple” stuff I planned. Does anyone else do this, or is it just me falling into the black hole of procrastination again?
