Today, I am so shy and friendless that my mother is literally setting up a play-date with one of her friend's daughters. I'm 25 years-old and this is my best chance at making a friend. FML

Some of the best relationships start as friendships in the sandbox throwing sand in each other's faces and screaming "No, YOU are a poopyhead!" Don't forget to put on a clean diaper first, and bring an extra juice box for her. Chicks dig that. Good luck.

Well maybe in the end you will have a new friend!

Social phobia isnt a laughing matter, you can get help, CBT is the best way for it since it is a phobia and not standard problem. Extreme shyness is one of the symptom. Go and get help and get a full life. I know how it is, I been there my self.

Keeping fingers crossed for you, OP. My friends tried to set me up with their friends multiple times and it never worked out. I'm not actually shy per se, just dissocial and totally obnoxious nerd/geek/dork/whatever. If you're just shy, I'm sure it'll be great :)

Craigslist advertises friends with benefits.

Benefits like free delivery?

That's sad. I semi relate after getting in a fight with one friend (and not wanting anyone to choose sides, I just gave up my whole friend group). There are websites for finding girls you might have stuff in common with. Going back to school helped too (got into a really social career--nursing--you make a tonne of friends).
