It's all about seeing them often and making good impressions each time. Get their number. Call them up after a week and ask if they remember you, and if they'd maybe like to go out to something. For this first one, it should be at some event, like a ballgame or at a bar for drinks. I would also recommending going out for the second time too. Then after that, opt to chill at their house or your own. Bring beverages while you guys play music or video games or something. Never bring food. If they don't like it, the half-eaten remains will remind them of how much they disliked it, and they will link that to you. Do this each weekend, maybe twice in two days on one weekend and just once the next. After a few weeks, you two will be closer friends.
If anything goes wrong, then just drop it. There are 6 billion people on the planet, and many more of them will have more similar interests to you.

Well, I have friend issues too, at least you know you're not alone. haha. crying
(Everyone else has really taken the advice I usually give, but always make sure there is always respect of each other's choices. That is very important, like I will pass on eating meat for a day for one of my vegetarian friends just because they can't even stomach it. Not too hard for me, but little things like that can be easy, just while you hang out. Of course, otherwise friends should accept each other for who they are, but respect. Do I make sense? I think I do.. >.<)
But I guess the best way to stop a friend problem is to just be friends, so I see a lot of people asking for you to pm. Just add me and whenever I see you online I'll just open chat, because I like talking. I can't stop talking.. Whoops, I forgot I put a period there.. Uh oh..
I talk a lot and about most everything and anything that comes to mind, I do many sports and martial arts and read pretty much all different kinds of books. I usually feel comfortable with the few friends I have, I just remember things really well.. So they feel special but it's just me being myself. v0v
But I have modeled, I do it in Japan, I am not nearly as popular as my older brothers though. But I guess it is because they have done it for longer.. <.>
But if you want a friend you can add me, and it is not just to you as the author but others who may be looking for a friend of some kind. Yeah, that's about it. smile

The Plaid Pirate It feels like I've tried everything; meetups, plenty of fish's friend section, platonic section on Craigslist, I've gone to bars and concerts. I'm friendly, people always take down my information and I give them mine, but they never end up contacting me back.
I need to find friends that are pretty open minded and non judgmental as well. I do nude modeling as well as solo adult modeling, etc. I find it silly that people can't get over things like that. It's just a job and it's how I'm going to manage to get myself through school and have a career. But people aren't very accepting to my lifestyle choices, which is why I lost my old friends. Well, I thought they were my friends until they chose to end the friendship and start spreading rumors that I was a crack whore on the street selling my body for $30 a pop. It felt like high all over again. ):
Anyhow I was wondering if anyone was in the same boat- strippers, adult models, porn stars, escorts, dominatrix's, phone sex girls, web cam girls, rent boys, transvestites, people with fetishes, etc? Anyone really who is a misfit when it comes to 'the social norm'. It's hard to find people who will accept you and your choices, or even just the way you are in general. I would love having someone I could talk to who can relate <3
I was also wondering if anyone had any advice on how to make friends, especially ones that are open minded. I'm very lonely, to be honest. I've had no friends for over a year now, it's been tough.
Thank you to anyone who tries to help, gives advice, or understands. (: I'm the same way! I thought I had a lot of good friends, but one person (long story, but a crazy chick) started spreading rumors and all of a sudden all my "friends" vanished, for some reason choosing to believe her VERY outlandish tails instead of me. She called me a slut and such, all that good stuff (pointed out that in my FB profile picture, you can see some cleavage... I was swimming. In a bathing suit. Yeah. But when she flashed the camera a few times on her 21st, it's totally okay!) and I realized...if these people were my friends, they would have at least given me the benefit of the doubt in this whole thing. Instead, wham! they're all over her.
I don't miss them personally, but I miss company, even online. I'm kinda on the fringe of society ( lot's 'o tattoos, funny colored hair, mouth like a drunken sailor and obsessed with horror/off-beat things). As such, I don't really have any advice to making friends ... I just kind of fall into friendships nowadays, which is probably why I don't have many close friends. I've got my husband, and my pets. Most people don't "get" my life choices or views on things, which is annoying because I always try to have an open mind when it comes to theirs.
Your life sounds super-interesting and awesome, though, I'm kinda jealous. Don't let anyone bring you down, if you're enjoying life then ******** 'em, you'll find better folk.
And feel free to add/PM me sometime... somewhere in this crazy ramblin' I meant to imply that I'm always on the lookout for interesting peeps who wanna be friends! That goes for anyone in this thread too, BTW, whee

I make friends a lot it's not just because I am friendly or because of my job it's because I am unique and I am not afraid to be who I am. You just need to be yourself if you stick out you stick if you don't you don't. You can't force someone to be your friend. Most of my friends have some sort of disability like myself so maybe finding people that you have things in common with may work. But always stick to the first rule "Be yourself."
