When I was a kid I had no friends, as a teenager only one. Nowadays I have more friends and even more acquaintances. Still I am a lone and need a lot time alone. It is hard to be around people all the time. I have jupiter in aquarius in 11th, moon conjunct uranus in 7th. ascendant conjunct chiron in 1st house in gemini in opposition to saturn (end of 6th house). By the way, I do not get along with my coworkers, but I also have mars loosely conjunct pluto in 6th 😁 IP: Logged |

Gemini is on my 6th house cusp, and is empty. Mercury is in the 8th house, at home in Virgo, but it's in a close trine to my Cap Saturn and a loose conjunction with Mars.Over time, I figured out that my friends have to be "big kids" like me, or I just can't get along with them. I can't tolerate excessive immaturity from people my age. IP: Logged |

So, indeed, my attempts at opening my social opportunities haven't been the absolute greatest. As I said though, I am definitely still trying. However, for the most part, I don't use Facebook. I am required to use my real name on there and it's uncomfortable for me to do that. I'd much rather be able to use any name I want on the websites I sign up on. So, I haven't added anyone to Facebook in probably months. On the other hand, it's pretty simple to take your advice on other websites I use. I just have to get past the awkward introduction phase.

I told her whoever seems nice or is sitting next to you, ask them questions like about the assignment or the date. ANYTHING. Do this a few times a week ... Then after they answer your questions try to talk a little bit "lovely weather out" THATS ALL then the next day when and if you see them walking wave to them or say hey! then they will wave back and want to talk to you more This is the hard part but you have to ask for their number to text them or their email (if they use that) But yeah, you got this. Like I said it's uncomfortable territory but so is anything at first... You can also create a Facebook with a fake name and ask them for their Facebook and add and message them there.. IP: Logged |

I am really lonely because of it, unfortunately, but I don't know how much of a difference it would make for me now. After the past four years of being hurt specifically by family (my sister was my only in-person friend), I feel/felt afraid to meet online friends, in case they didn't like me in person, and also because I was more stressed out than ever. I've been really depressed over everything. It was hard enough getting over what happened in school - the bullying, moving around and being taken away from friends.My Sun is in the 6th house. Saturn in the 9th, square Jupiter, Pluto (11th or 12th house), and Mercury. I woke up wondering where a good friend is, if she's okay, if I've been ditched as a friend... the usual. IP: Logged |

I'm so sorry all of that happened to you. TRUTHFULLY, what you will come to find is , you are not the only one experiencing these problems. So other people too are in the same boat as you. So it's okay to open up. IP: Logged |

In my case, It doesn't help that I'm a freelance designer working from home, during the week I go out 2 or 3 times to the grocery and to run as part of my exercise routine, in the weekends I spend time with my family.I get very anxious every time I'm in a place with people I don't know very much, like birthday parties and such. Also, in my mind, I feel that I'm too good for most people, that they're not worthy of know me, which I know is ridiculous, but those thoughts come to my mind very often. I really dislike mediocrity and ignorance, and I'm surrounded by both. I think my Sun and Jupiter have something to do with this part of my personality ------------------ Gemini Rising. Cancer Sun.

I am a bit of a loner...I really get bored with mundane small talk. And you need a lot of that to have friends. I do try now and then. But its not consistent. Harsh aspects to the Moon/Mercury can suggest a sort of "ejection" from self and perhaps the immediate environment. Such an individual may in turn feel lonely even in the midst of company. Or prefer to keep external company limited. I don't mean to be mean, but I really don't find most people interesting. When am drunk, my tendency to harshly judge others relaxes. But even with this, I don't want to spend too much time with people. I don't need people to re-charge. And I think that this is mostly because I am introverted.

I agree with what DS said. Don't worry, it's not you. It's just that the things that don't hold up in our life have to fall apart. Friends who ditch you don't deserve to be called friends anyway. There's always a lesson in the bad experiences. Look at it this way - those things happened to you, but you survived. Really, really concentrate on that fact. And the meaning blossoms. You don't need to worry about the wrong people anymore. The wrong ones won't stick, the right ones will come in due time. BUT, in the meantime, you are strong enough to hold up on your own.

I literally have 0 friends. ZERO. I am a loner and I rarely get lonely, and when I do it is not a friend that I desire. If I have to socialize too much I quickly become drained and must return to solitude. I am naturally this way and it has to do with a strong disdain for having my time wasted. Ppl tend to talk about nothingness and do dumb activities. The person has to fit a certain criteria for me to befriend them. So I may pick one friend at a time years apart. When this happens I show them my carefully guarded but completely fascinating world and they are always amazed and we have TONS of adventures. Vain as it may seem I feel I have a lot to offer and not just any person is allowed to experience it. I'd rather die totally alone first, which wouldn't even bother me tbh.My friendships end if I become distant (usually from their inability to keep me mentally/spiritually stimulated) or if the male ones fall in love with me and I don't feel the same. I never have friendships just for the sake of it, they r selected carefully and with reason. Otherwise I feel other ppl are preventing me from creating and studying with their existence in my vicinity. Funny thing is Im a a better "friend" to ppl than their actual friends without even considering them my friend. I will help u with anything just don't ask me to go to the movies with u if I haven't picked u, I'll just give u the movie money so u can go. http://i64.tinypic.com/b4fds0.gif IP: Logged |

Ask my kids and they'll tell you "she don't have any friends" hahahaha but that's because I'm related to everyone and we have a VERY large family. hahahahaTry going out without them and they'll wait up for me and give me the third degree, asking questions that are none of their business. I try to be a loner, but they won't let me. sometime I just want some ------------------ Don't look back, you're not going that way. IP: Logged |

I have 11th house in Virgo and my Jupiter is there but in Libra. My Jupiter square my Sun, Uranus, Neptune and Mars and trine my Saturn. My Moon is in Pisces, Aquarius Venus, Scorpio AC, Capricorn Sun.I must say that I am actually outgoing and I like to be surrounded with people, at least when I was really young. And then I didn't care to much who it will be, but I actually have never had friends I wanted. So much fake people and totally different than me I met and ended those friendships, cause I don't need it. I've always dreamed to have few really good friends, very similar to me in any way, and it to be true friendship, to be all the time together etc.. But I am actually loner, living in my dreams, and my world and I have feeling that nobody understands me, I'm totally different from every person I've ever met. I have two friends I see from time to time, but not so often, and they are really good in heart, but still totally different than me, and they don't understand me. I have that Virgo 11th house, it's really important to me, with what people I will be surrounded, I choose. Not like I'm old, I have 23 years, who knows who I will meet in the future, where and how, but for now I don't have luck. So for now, I'm surrounded with books and I'm fine with that. IP: Logged |

Hmmm...isnt' Aqua social though? The 11th house of friends, groups, and activism? I don't have any of those influences besides my 8th house Gemini Moon being in the Aqua decan. Actually I am Moon and Mars in Gemini yet I'm a loner who likes solitude lol I did notice that Pixie and I both have Mars Rx in the 7th (a social house), Jupiter Rx in the 9th, and Lilith in the 1st with the Sun. May be clues there. IP: Logged |

Yes. I am quite similar and also to what violets said. The time wasting thing must be a mercury/Gemini/Virgo thing. LOL Last night I got a call about someone stranded because their battery was dead in this cold we're having. They were quite upset. I literally told them, "Well I don't want to waste time being upset about it. Let's just get going on taking care of it." Which they take as dismissing their feelings and maybe that is true. I just think, "we can moan for 15 minutes and then fix the problem or we can just fix the problem now and move on." Especially as I knew it was simple to resolve. I do complain and carry on when it comes to work because I don't have a choice but to follow other people's stupid ideas. Sounds off topic but that could contribute to my lack of conventional friendships. I know what I like and don't like to do. Most don't feel the same so I do what I like, alone. I have friends, but it's not typical. I may not even speak to them outside of a few Facebook posts. My best friend I haven't seen each other for almost a year but then I got an email from a retailer that he sent me a little money to spend at that retailer. LOL That's just how we roll. He buys all kinds of crap and probably was given a little thank you to spend at a sister store. So I'm sure he thought, "hey, xxxx would probably use this."

My Moon opposites Mercury, and I totally agree with what you said.

Me lol, I have maybe two or three friends I talk to once in a while, but none of them live locally either. I have Saturn and North Node in the 11th (Cap and Aqua respectively) and I'm an 8th house Scorpio. I don't usually have friends (or at least close friends) for longer than a few years. I've got Jupiter and South Node in the 5th, so I tend to have really big friendships- that tend to go kaboom later on. Chiron conjuncts SN from the 4th as well, so that may have something to do with it. IP: Logged | |
