I am a Senior in High School and I am just realizing this year how lonely I am as a person. I do have friends, but I don’t go out a lot with them. I never hung out with friends a lot in my early youth, my parents never really encouraged me to be social or invite anyone to my house, they always seemed iffy when I would try and invite someone to my house or I go to theirs. No one really invites me anywhere either. My social anxiety doesn’t help at all so I am really at a loss. And with this being my last semester of high school, I fear I’m going to be lonely during college and not make many friends or lose touch of the friends I already have.
