I realize now I forgot how to do a lot of things. How to confide in people, how to cry, how to make friends, and how to deal with other people. During summer k was bored so I kinda played hikikimori, if that's how you spell it. Now that I'm among other people and in a new high school away from my old school which I've been in for my whole life, I realized that maybe, just maybe, my people skills are sorely lacking. I barely knew anyone and didn't feel the desire to get to know anyone. Yet somehow I was lonely without my best friends there. Perhaps I took their presence for granted all this time. I don't know what to do.

I somehow can't tell anybody about my problem. My mind just says no, you don't want their pity. That would waste so much time to explain  and too much embarrassment. I don't want to worry my family. So what to do? What can I do?
Am I a failure?

Don't rush making friends. Be friendly, be yourself, and speak up when you want. It all comes to you eventually, and even if it doesn't come right away, don't worry. Be patient, you can do it.
