Hi. I am a Christian currently having problems with their social life. I am in high school and I just can not seem to be able to make any new meaningful social connections. I have a few friends from my elementary school but as they make new friends of their own I can feel them slipping away. I rarely go out with people and usually spend my weekends alone with my family. I have been praying on this for a while and have reached out into my local church youth group but I am just so incredibly shy that I feel nobody really wants to be around me. I don't know what I can do, I just don't have any courage. If anyone is able to take the time to pray for my situation I would be so so grateful.
