Ohhh you're talkin to your twin then! I feel like I can never fit in ANYWHERE, and that when I'm around people, all I do is annoy them. I hated Christmas, people just watching me. I had to wait till they finally started talking again. Don't worry, I feel the SAME way.  |

Everyone feels like this at times especially if you don't talk with a lot of people. Try starting a conversation with people in school. Try..."That's a nice watch. Where did you get it?" or "Hay, I really like you sweater. Where did you get it?" Always start with a question to get the other person talking and hopefully this will lead to a small conversion. I know this sounds korny and you may stumble over you words sometimes if you are really nervous talking with people but the more you practice the better conversations you will have and the more you will feel like you belong. I have felt like you in the past and honestly believed it was from lack of conversation. I still sometimes feel people are talking about me but then I ask my boyfriend and he always says the same thing...everyone feels like this, they probably are admiring you, its all in your head. At my new school, I used to think the popular girls were talking about me but then one day I gave one of them a compliment and was invited to eat with them at lunch...they talked about the dumbest things...losing weight, homework, getting their nails done...So you see even the people that you may think are having great conversations are probably not. Just practice talking with people and eventually you will feel more comfortable around people. Good luck. |

I think we all go through a period in our lives when we feel as if we don't fit in or can't find our place in this journey. You just need to step up and realize people do care, and get the courage to put yourself out there. Soon them few friends that you have .. Will become many!  |

I feel like that ALL the time! I really hate it too. Takes me to the point where I want to cry over it. I know that isn't right to do but it makes me feel so lonely in this world being only 17 with no brothers or sisters and a school that likes rumors and drinking/smoking parties.  |

I can remember feeling exactly like that in my early teens hun, it went on for years and someone explained to me that its all part of growing up, what I couldnt understand was that I still thought like this even in my 20's, I lacked self esteem and confidence, once I learned how to overcome these things I became more outgoing and met with more people....so you see, a lot of people have felt like you at one time or another in their lives....hugs hun  |

you aren't the only person to feel like this. it is very common. you must be young because you mentioned school. most teenagers go through this. it's part of growing up. don't worry so much about it. you are a unique person and so what if you like different things. someday when you get out of school you will see that it's no big deal. just hang in there and hold your head up. it's really rather cool to follow your own path.  |
