This might sound a bit petty but it's been getting me down a bit lately.
I don't have anyone who is mine. I don't have a boyfriend and I don't have a best friend who I can tell everything too. I feel like I'm sharing everything I own, and everyone I know. Sometimes my friends tell me I'm selfish with things, but it's just because it's mine, and I don't usually have things all to myself.
I don't have a massive tight group of friends that does every thing together. I don't have a friends who always come over. I spend my weekends sitting at home, because no one's invited me anywhere, and whenever I invite people somewhere, they're always busy. When I finish high school I'm hardly going to see any of my friends at all.
The only place I actually feel like I'm valued is at my taekwondo club. Three wonderful times a week I feel like I'm the equal, and sometimes the superior, of everyone in the room.
Bleh. I guess this is just a wake up call for me to stop being so shy. But I can't help it. People are scary, and I can't help but worry what they think of me.

Do what I do. Take up a hobby that takes up so much of your time that you won't have time to think about all of that.

We love you disorder. Alan loves you and I love you, but I know what you mean. We aren't there in real life, plus we have the handicap of being males (plus I'm as old as your daddy).
But it is possible to have male friends who are best friends. Maybe you need to look beyond your female buddies and you will find a boy right under your nose who is ready to be your best friend?

Take initiative. Invite someone over and build a tradition of, say, movie night fridays. As for boyfriend, sign up for a class in the community or an extracurricular at school. I found mine in the Drama Club. A lot of boys just take those classes for the credits, so there's usually quite a selection of bored (and attractive) males just waiting for someone to strike up a conversation.

I can't think of anything to write about, and I mean nothing. Anything I do write about... is either ignored, or people pretend to to compliment me on my "great" skills, and hand me a cookie...well, they don't.. but, they should. Ugh... please help me, I need something, anything, a sign that'll make me realize what I'm doing wrong... ugh...

May I suggest joining a critique group? Or starting one if there aren't in your area. I'm not talking about an online group, because I've found out that they'll pat you on the back anyway. Also, even though there's a copyright law, it can't really be proven if someone steals your stuff. I got that information firsthand from an accomplished author who had a few stories stolen that she'd posted online, and couldn't do a thing about it. She now refuses to post anything online, period.
Anyway, I recently joined a critique group in my town, and what a difference it has made. I don't get patted on the back; I get honest critiques and suggestions for how to make my story better. There are some people who go there who don't have any new work to read, but they still go for the inspiration. That might just be what you need to give you the kick in the butt to start writing again.
As for inspiration, have you tried your dreams? I have some really crazy ones that would make crappy stories if I wrote them down as I dreamed them. But if I wrote about one or two elements that stood out in a particular dream and expanded on them, a few of them could make some good stories. Or daydreams: last week I wrote a 7000-word short story on a creepy/romantic daydream I'd been working on for years. I'm in the process of rewriting it so I can start submitting it to magazines.
Or, go to the news, pick something weird, twist the events around and personalize it, and come up with something entirely new.

Hey Humane, chill.
What's with the bold overload?
People just seem to be iritating me in general right now. How hard is it to find people who are genuine in this world and don't want to take advantage of you?

Fine, my boyfriend decides to get clean. That's awesome. His withdrawls, not so awesome. Apparently it triggered his eczema, so I'm feeding detox tea and anti-histamins to a complaining seventeen year old. Ommmm. At least he's trying.

I hope he can keep it up. Some of his friends are less than supportive.

Mostly marijuana. But he's been smoking so long that it's pretty hard for his body to be without.

Great! So another blow to a band that's going nowhere. My guitarist quit, going to join some generic metal band at my school, he said we couldn't play metal, DUH!! WE'RE A PUNK BAND! WHY DID YOU JOIN IN THE FIRST PLACE?????!!! On top of this, my guitar cable fried on me and get this: I asked a girl to hang out some time, I call the phone number she gives me and what do I get "the number you are trying to call doesn't exist" or someother shit. And knowing my past posts here, this one will be ignored and when somebody else posts, you people will focus on their's. Sorry, I'm tired and very angry right now.

Actually, there are few physical side affects to quitting smoking pot. It's the habit that gets you. If he hasn't yet, suggest he tries niacin.

Ugh. (yawn) I was awakened by a New York site that went down. Fortunately it was isolated to a network switch and I can go back to bed. (yawn)
Bleh.

Awwww, Stormtrooper. Some girls can be just awful. Personally I say up front that I'm not interested in someone, rather than lead them on that way. Which oddly enough is considered more bitchy. I'd love to sing for a band though, you're lucky you've got one. Sadly I don't know if I could sing well enough, and I think my voice is too girly cute for a rock band, . So I just stick to singing at the top of my lungs in my room.

-hugs- Don't worry too much, I'm sure you'll get a new guitarist, getting a new guitar cable isn't too difficult, and there are many more fish in the sea.
No worries, dear! Some girls aren't like that!

Thanks guys, I just needed to calm down, today went much better. I went to a family gathering and talked to Wes (my cousin in law he rocks!!!) and I'm buying a Hartke Bass Head off of him for 50$, it just needs a new speaker and a fan, so about 100$, pretty good deal, not I can actually hear myself play. I'm feeling better today, thanks again guys, it really helps.
