Today, I hired out a motel room so I could stay there by myself and lie to my mother and grandmother about having friends. This is the third time. FML

So get some, and stop wasting your money.

You have to stay out all night to prove you have friends? Wouldn't it be much cheaper to go to a movie and come home late?

having just moved to cardiff from southampton, im in a similar situation to OP. however, rather than sit and mope about it, i'm throwing myself into making friends at work, which seems to be working. i can only suggest OP does this as well. it's cheaper than hiring hotels if nothing else (Y)

Facebook, myuearbook, hell even craigslist... It's not hard to meet people, be outgoing at a coffee shop, something

If only I could do that, but I can't get out from under my parents thumbs :-(

Identify what about you prevents you from having friends and work to change it. You deserve being alone if you maintain your behavior and it hinders you from having friends.

Yes we will be waiting for the FML of your stay at the Budget Inn with dirty Mike and the boys.

why don't you get some hookers while you're at it.

Little advise for future-reference:This is nowhere near the "love" category.

I was in the same boat, I'm still getting over crippling social anxiety. My family didn't understand how difficult it was at first, but slowly with their help I'm getting out more and finding people with similar interests and hobbies. It takes time and understanding between you and your family, and maybe counseling to show you how to change. It's not impossible.
