Search Results: lonely at school

I'm an 18 year old high school senior... and around my school, it's no secret that I'm a loner with little to no friends. Ever since freshman year, I've been eating lunch all by myself every single day, and no one really talks to me except for a casual friend with a "hey" or "sup" every once in a while.

Trust me, it's not as bad as it sounds. Part of it is because I'm bad at social interaction, but the other part is because I genuinely prefer to be alone. However, even someone who prefers to be alone needs at least some social interaction. Having no one to interact with but the thoughts of your mind can get quite lonely at times throughout a 7 hour day.

However, no one really ever noted it. It's always been an "I mind my own business, they mind their own business" type of thing.

However, in my AP Statistics class there's this girl I have a crush on. For starters, she's extremely pretty. Then getting less superficial, she's a really nice and polite person, and is nice to conversate with. Then into the side things, she's extremely smart, has taken 4 AP classes her freshman year, and 7 all her other years, including her current senior year. Not only that, but she owned them, and got A's and 4's and 5's on all the exams. She's also very involved with the school, being in several clubs and sports. She says that there was no secret to all this, just time management, responsibility, getting started right away, and hard work. She says AP classes and exams aren't that hard.

She's among-st one of the literal smartest people in the school, and lots of people admire her.

She's also really nice to me in specific, smiling and holding the door often, and the other day, she very sweetly told me, "I don't know if you just like to be alone, or if you're having trouble finding a friend, or if it's something else that's more personal, but feel free to talk to me anytime!"

I couldn't believe that she of all people had said that to me.

I’ve done online school
home school
and public school

By far my favorite is Online school
online school is like school without restrictions
We only had to stay for 3 hours if we were under 18..
If you were 18+ you could Come and leave as you please.
As long as you got your work done.. but under 17 couldn’t leave until we were released

It was so different.. there was no lunch break or bathroom break.
It was literally just a building with computers.
You come, sign in, login, do your work & you leave.
There was no special announcements, no pledge of allegiance, and no earthquake drills..

School opened from 11 - 2pm
or 6 - 9pm if you were 18+

I liked public school because I wasn’t lonely.. all by myself.. doing the work.. alone in a room..

but i also wasn’t getting fucking annoyed for like 6 hours straight
