I have nothing in common with my frieds

Postby roubacap » Sun Mar 24, 2013 3:27 pm

I have a group of friends but they just meet on Saturday nights. I proposed them to meet more frequently but they refuse to meet on Fridays, Saturday evenings or Sundays. Just 4 hours on Saturday nights to go to taverns and to watch girls.
I bet whatever you want that this eastern we will just meet on Saturday but no more. It happens the same every year. In holidays is the same, just on saturday nights.
This is very unusual for a group of friends.

Apart from that, they spend the whole time staring at girls at taverns, staying stopped like trees. I prefer to dance and not to be watching girls.
I feel empty and alone, because I cannot express my feelings and talk profoundly with them. My relationship with them is very superficial. To me is very difficult to maintain a conversation at a tavern with the music so loud because of my attention problems, I suffer from ADD attention deficit disorder inattentive type.

I live in the north of Spain and here the groups of friends are very closed. I do not how to meet new people.
Thank you in advance.

Maybe you could talk with them about your ideas to meet more frequently.
Perhaps you can finde out that they have more in common than you thought but it also could be that they are different and that you really have nothing in common with them.
Maybe they are not what you are looking for. For me it is difficult to finde new friends.

almost 5 years ago, i moved from new york to PA. i have had no luck in finding friends of my own, the only "friends" i have are through my daughters classmates parents. my wife becomes friends with other moms, and i get the dads. theyre all ok people, dont get me wrong, but theyre nothing like me. i have found no friends that share my interests, beliefs, sense of humor, nothing. its pretty sad. at 39 years old, should i even be feeling saddened by this? i have a great wife, awesome kids, but theres nothing else beyond that...... sigh.

i'm really starting to love being here, and being able to put my feelings into words.

thanks PsychForums!

During this eastern, having had 5 days of holidays I have just met with them on Saturday night.
I have told them to meet more than just on Saturdays but they refuse it.
It is not usual for a group of friends to meet on Saturday but no more during the holidays. In summertime is the same, they meet just on Saturday nights.
I feel very alone because of that and I see at my 37 that my life in that field is the same that when I was 17 or younger. My life is in stagnation in all the fields, of course the social field included.
I have never had a girldfriend being 37.

To me it is quite understable that my friends at taverns are desperate staring at girls, because they maybe also feel alone with this so poor social life that we have.

I have the need of making new friends and more profound relationships, but I do not know how to do it.
Because the group of friends in the north of Spain are very closed.

roubacap as you described group of people that you meet (your friends) I think only solution is to find some new... Know such sort of people (stoned like trees , steering in girls and that is maximum of great time they can have) And where to find new? Huh,maybe to look around you, neighbors or something? Old friends from school? Do you have some hobby? If you don't start something that you like, and meet people with similar intrests.
