Back in the day it was so simple. You just walked up to another kid on the playground and you had a new best friend. These days, there are more challenges.

You may feel like you have no talent for it

So basically you're in denial

But eventually you're forced to face the fact: You're lonely

And you start wondering if you're some kind of social pariah

You decide a party is a great place to make new friends and discover you don't know a soul there

You think that someone's waving at you, but it was the person behind you

Don't worry; no one saw ...

When someone actually talks to you and you agree like crazy

But really you just agree with the fact that they're talking to you.

You try to converse, but you just mess it all up

You curse yourself for letting such abominations escape your mouth

If you don't have something great to say, don't say anything at all.

So you ponder something hilarious to say for next time

But end up just not ever speaking again

So everyone thinks you're crazy dull

You're just trying to do the socially correct thing at all times

But sometimes you don't know what that is.

People actually invite you to something and you can't even go

So you have to resort to inviting yourself along some other time. But then you don't know if they actually want you there or not.

You definitely bonded; but they treat it like it was nothing

And you might come off a little desperate

But you're just so excited to have a new friend.

You definitely feel a little bit like you're hitting on them

But you just want them to know how amazing they are

But eventually someone wants you to be their friend for real!

You don't even know how to handle yourself.

And you kind of can't believe you won at friendshipping

They like you! They really like you!
