I spend money when I don't need to or want to really. I don't have any friends, and when I want to be out and about I buy coffees I don't even end up drinking. I will do anything to have a conversation with someone. Why is it every time I make arrangements to hang out with someone, they always bail? I'm not a drinker or a smoker or a club type girl. Why is it so hard for me to find people to hang out with? My only dear friends are the books I read.

Yep, I think it's a Vancouver thing, people are so cliquey and have no interest in making new friends it seems.

I agree, people here always bail last minute! The people I know here are the same, apart from a 'loyal' few.

Jesus H. Christ, people. This woman is expressing her loneliness, and you want to turn this into yet another in the seemingly never-ending threads about how "this city sucks"?

Man, she sounds like me. So I'm a Native guy and I'm a very normal guy, I take part-time classes and I work. I also don't smoke or drink, I don't go to bars, clubs or parties either. At home I usually just learn songs on guitar or watch foreign films, I also LOVE cooking.
I'd prefer to just walk around or go to the movies and other 'regular' things but it seems most people would just rather go 'clubbing' and be all wild and so I have no friends. This all said though I don't give off a "omg I need human contact!," vibe either, I've learned to get my attention/kicks other ways.
It's confusing, people (or women) can tell I'm a normal guy but because of the way I look (my super long hair) and maybe some preconceived notions about Native people in general I can tell I can intimidate people when really I'm a scary guy at all.
So, if any of you ever a nice looking Native guy w/glasses, super long hair and he's 'rocking' an Optimus Prime t-shirt and/or dressed well, say 'hello,' that's me lol. You'll know it's me because I'm the complete opposite of most other Natives out there, it is obvious.

All you ever do is make comments (which are always waaaay too long) on being native, having super long hair and extremely good looks - somewhat along the lines of Ryan Gosling you said in your last sermon... you turn someone elses confession into a vehicle for talking about yourself - shut the fuck up already!

Put up a posting on Craigslist, or respond to one of the many posts already there in the "Strictly Platonic" section under w4w. I responded to a few and also posted my own, and had so much response I had to take the posting down. Sure, some of them won't work out, but I've already made one good friend and a couple others that seem great!
I used to feel the same way until I actively sought out friends. And once I did, I went through some disappointments but didn't give up, and now I'm starting to become much happier about my social life.
Don't give up and don't get discouraged... it will happen if you put in the effort and are willing to be patient and persistent.
