Hi all. I'm struggling a lot with being depressed and I feel so isolated. No one invites me out to do things. All these weddings are hapenning with people I grew up with and know pretty well and I'm not getting invited to any of them!. For a very long time I've had a very strong desire to have a girlfriend and can't get one!. Anyone with any helpful idea's would be very much appreciated thanks?.

Is there any way to you can meet or make some new friends? Perhaps finding a bookclub or reaching out to someone at work?
