[quote=Anonymous]I commented at 16:05 and by your follow up it also sounds to me like you're second guessing too much. At this age, we are who we are, and if someone doesn't like us because of our facial expression, then it wasn't meant to be. My advice is the same - find a person or two whether at work or neighbors or wherever, ask them out to coffee, and see how it goes. It's a bit like dating, once you do it enough it doesn't feel awkward and you won't care that deeply that you went out with someone once and nothing came of it -- just enjoy the hr you spend together. Another idea I had - if you are doing something like volunteering, sports, or community activity - after it's over, announce to whoever is around "hey I was going to go grab a coffee or a quick lunch at x, if anyone wants to come." Maybe no one will or maybe you'll get 1-2 people who will say "yeah I have nothing going on this aftenroon, let's go." I went to a big college which was a bit commuter-ish and this is something that we all used to do as we were used to not always having our friends around. The key is don't be self conscious about it; just ask, if people want to come great, if not - fine - still go out and treat yourself to a Starbucks or whatever just for having made the effort.[/quote]
