I Hate Being Right.

I need a new circle of friends. I love my friends that I do have but I think I'm in a different mindset than alot of my friends right now and it would be nice to have somebody that actually would want to go see Wale with me, somebody that would want to take last minute trips to fun places [yes, even with gas prices the way they are], somebody that still wants to go clubbing occasionally. I mean I want to go while I still can. I'm not trying to go when I'm 26-30 so then its clear I'm desperate and dont have a man or shit else to do. Too bad I dont trust new people...or some of the old ones.

Anyway, to the point of this...

Have you ever just had this feeling that you shouldn't do or say something but you ignore it? You just say fuck it and see what happens?

You ever had the situation play out and regret doing that because one of the exact things you thought was gonna happen did? Yeah so I just had that happen to me. I used to use extra caution with these things but then I started worrying about the what ifs. Id rather try something and have it not work than to not try and be forever wondering what if. That is why I have no regrets...except one that will never be mentioned ever again.

Wow, I wrote a blog very similar to this one, about the whole "needing new friends thing" and I totally agree with what ur saying, especially when you feel like you can't necessarily relate to ur friends on certain levels, it's hard, but if you start doing some of the stuff that you wanna do, even if ur alone, you will eventually meet the people that you want to be around...so just do the things that you wanna do, life's too short to not do the things that you wanna do! I know it's kind of cliche but hey it's the truth!

happens to everyone. I do stuff by myself sometimes too. Mostly cause I want to, and you'd be surprised how much fun you can have once you get over that "i don't wanna go by myself" hump. besides, you like your friends for a reason right? you might just need more friends, not necessarily new ones.

u are so on point with the whole notion of needing new friends...

i've been feeling that way for the longest. all mine keep getting pregnant. real talk. starting families and shit at 19 and 20. can't go out with them cuz they can't find babysitters and shit.

and i know i dont trust people. or make friends very easily. but hopefully, u find someone that's on the same page as you. one good true friend is all u really need.

Omg & why does this relate to me lol. None of my friends are n2 the music that I listen 2, so I just end up missing out on everything. & I have that feeling all the time! Good luck with the situation girl!

& it always sucks when you want that ex back, but they have a girl lol. Worst feeling ever!

"Fear is a good strong emotion. It heightens the senses and puts you on alert.
Submission to fear is synonymous with failure."

I've tried to make that my creedo when it comes to going for what I want... and I still hate going by myself places, cause shit always happens where I'm like 'damn I wish such and such could see this shit here!' I guess I need a creedo for that one too.

just remember..."the grass is always greener"

you may THINK you want new friends, but the new ones could be worse than the ones you already have.

what if your new friends want to go out ALL the time, and want to take those trips ALL the time, or they do things that you are into because you all are single.

just something to think about.

yeah i wrote a post on this not too long ago too. its frustrating when you're surrounded by people who u no longer can relate to. there's so much i wanna do and experience while im young that a lot of my friends don't appreciate. i still got friends from high school stuck in that hood ass mentality and will only get up and go to a house party or backyard bbq that is likely to get shot up and there idea of going out to eat at a really nice restaurant is ruby tuesdays. sigh. such is life.
