A:the problem a lot of people have is feeling as though they should x number of friends or be doing what everyone else is doing. don't worry about anyone else. what you need to do is think about what you want to do, what you enjoy. start actively taking part in your hobbies or interests. if you like sports, look into local teams or join the leisure centre or gym, like books, go to the library etc. by doing the things you enjoy you will feel much better and the people you will meet will share you passions. just relax and let friendships take their course
