i feel like i cant really by bothered anymore

well im just about to start yr13 and well i kinda spend all of year 12 trying to make friends, cos well i had very low self esteem, low confidence and not so many friends, ive now got 5 best mates among loadsa aquaintences.
But as I am now in my last year of school i just simply cant be bothered anymore. ive realised you should just be content with what youve got but at the same time i really want to be invited to the parties etc..
one thing that is worrying me- none of my mates are going to the end of year prom next year. none of them went to the end of year 11 party either which resulted in me going on my own and looking like a prat. and well im worried for the prom next year...i dont want to go on my own..

well i just wanted some advice please :smile:

Well I wouldnt get too worked up, I was exactly the same in yr 13. Didn't do well at all in my exams but I got into uni and now things have improved a lot, I'm not shy any more and I'm very extroverted. I'm the total opposite of what I used to be and I'm a lot happier :smile:

The only thing you can do really is to concentrate on getting good enough grades for uni or whatever you hope to do in the future. There's plenty of proms in uni, mine has 2 a year :p: So even if you dont get a chance to go to this one you'll have plenty of chances to go to proms in uni.

If you're still worried then try to talk to other people who may be going to the prom. Are any of your aquantencies going? Maybe you can stick around with them?
