Many such cases

Today, I was thinking again how I literally haven't had any real life friends for years. I know I don't interact with others much, especially recently, but why am I even ignored at school? Do I deserve this like people keep saying? I really like my online friends but why does everyone but me have someone IRL? FML
I agree, your life sucks 242
You deserved it 91

Same thing different taste

Sometimes it takes a while to find people who are similar to you and share your interests, and it's even tougher to do that if you're restricted to people who just happen to be around you, like at school. That's a pretty small pool to choose from. You meet more people as you go through life, and eventually you'll find ones you like.

Part of it isn't your fault, a lot of things out of our control have contributed to societal atomization, stuff as car dependency, rising cost of living, and disappearing third places (a third place is the place you voluntarily frequent besides home & school/work) I don't know if you've done anything to warrant blame, but rest assured you're not the only thing to blame
