Well, ever since I started highschool (14), I started to withdraw, and become quite antisocial. I would say that it is tremendously difficult for myself to create meaningful relationships. I just don't have any social skills, and I lag behind on everyone else my age, who seems to have normal social lives. They also have the capability to form those close bonds with people, but I have yet to form one.

Anyway, I was wondering if you could interpret my chart to see if there is any indication of this.


Also, before I was a teen, I used to have some friends. However, all my childhood friendships ended really badly and abruptly. Again, can you relate this to my chart somehow?

Also, would any of you guys give me any advice about how to go about making meaningful and lasting relationships?

Well, thanks for reading.

You and I share the smae birthday. I'm w/ a leo now and I can seriously relate w/ what you are saying, although I can't offer any concrete astrological advice or interpret a chart, I hear you. If you haven't already go to astro.com. There you have the option to enter in the pertinemt info. and soon enough you'll have a chart. And then maybe you can get a book to help you see what you want to see! Usually people around here won't lift an eye to a request! So good luck. Although there may be one or two good folks who may. I;m sure there's a house in astrology that governs social skills.

Sparkations -

You may not need to "fix" your social skills at all. Those high school relationships can be quite superficial.

Although it always feels better to feel like you have friends, try to imagine how you would feel if your social life was satisfactory. Concentrate of how you feel, and then ask yourself what it is about that feeling that has become so important for you at this time.

Remember that your perception of everyone else being ahead of you is only your perception. It may be possible that the opposite is true, but somehow you feel outnumbered.

Go to your local community college and pick up one of their thick catalogs. Go page by page looking at each course, and see if anything interests you. Then go to your principal or counselor, and request permission to attend the college while you are still in high school. Just take one course.

If you have at least a "C" average, it shouldn't be a problem. If they say no, ask if you can in your senior year.

College is much closer to THE REAL WORLD than high school is. You'll probably feel more comfortable, especially if you attend evening classes where students are more mature because they usually work.

When you leave high school, you will realize that the reality is people grow up and go their own ways. Each of us needs to follow our own gut.

WOW! Thank you so much astro junkie! I like all the advice that you gave since I am kinda young to. I just graduated high school so I am really looking forward to real world relationships because you are right, high school is full of superficiality. Thanks again I liked dreading your post.
