I'm really sad about spending New Years eve alone.....:((?
I'm 15 and I've spent almost every new years eve alone. My sister is going out.She asked me to go with her, but she goes with her 4 friends, they're 19 and they'll be in one club that anyways,you shouldn't supposed to be when you're under age, but they still let you in and then you feel like a complete jerk when everyone around you is 18+. And I know that they won't have that much fun if I would be there because they will have to look after me and things like that...I feel like I really don't belong there that day.
Then my friend's friend ( they're 16 and I don't even know him) is having a party in his house. They invited me but I don't feel like going because I don't know anyone and they are all older than me ( acting older ) so I feel stupid, and again,like I don't belong there.
Then, my grandma is alone but I would probably feel better to say I spent it alone than with my grandma ( I get to see her veryyy often).
My mom goes to sleep and than I stay alone. I feel really sad on any kind of occasion because it's always like this. My friends and members of family are older than me and people of my age are not so much of my friends.
Then I cry, TV is depressing, I watch a movie ,they kiss at the end, that's depressing again. Then Jack Daniels..idk, it's like I'm turning into some old drunk lonely lady.If I buy a cat, I will def kill myself. -.-'
What are some ideas to do ? I can't read because I'm too distracted with crying and I can't study because it's too sad....so anything besides that would be great
Thank you and ....happy new year

i know how you feel, i never go to parties, the last couple years i just hung out with this one friend at my house. But this year im grounded and hate you cuz you got an invite to a party and can go and your not going! I've been grounded since thanksgiving (just cuz i lied to my dad about one little thing), and havnt seen any of my friends this whole break! Now, im not telling you to go with your sisters group, go with to your friend's friends party! Even tho you dont know them, just go there and meet new people! Have fun! I on the other hand am going to stay at home with my dad... gosh i hope i dont turn out like him, i dont even get the chance to sneak out!! ugh your friend is going to go to that party right? Just go with them, and then i can guarentee you that you'll see people that you know and you can hang out with them too. And the guy throwing the party is one year older than you so dont go saying their gonna "act older than you"! I do the same thing, setting myself up for failure, STOP! No one cares, they're just there to have fun and enjoy new years eve.
So recap:1. You are going to that party
2. go with your friend and have fun with them
3. See people you already know, talk to them
4. Its rude if you dont go to this guys party ( i know your not) cuz your basically saying youd rather spend your new years as a 15 year old with your grandma (that you see verrrry often) than go to his party. Come on!
5. No one wants to spend their new years with their grandma, come on now! Even she will think your lame ( dont mean to be rude just laugh :D)
6. You'll get to meet new people and maybe you'll make more friends, get more of a social life
7. PLEASE JUST GO TO THIS PARTY FOR ME!!! IM BORED OUT OF MY MIND STUCK AT THIS HOUSE AND IT WOULD ACTUALLY MAKE ME FEEL BETTER IF YOU WENT TO THIS PARTY AND HAD FUN, NOT EVEN KIDDING (this just proves how bored i am lol)
plus i wrote you this big long answer. Just get ready for the party, wear something your comfortable in (it will boost your confidence) and just think "man im gonna party it up for this girl in Texas cuz she's bored out of here mind at home grounded!" haha jk just do it for you, you'll have fun :)
GOOD LUCK

I watched "The Party" (1960s Peter Sellers comedy) and it made me chuckle. The last time I had a good NYE was over 10 years ago and I'm not even that old :) I agree that it's an overrated night and I hate anything contrived. Every year I tell myself, "Next year will be better", but that's one thing I'm not going to do tonight! Instead, I agree with the suggestions made such as pampering yourself, watching something funny, reading a book, taking time out to reflect on the past year, and maybe do what I did, write a list of achievements for 2012, even if it's something as simple as managing to keep your home clean and tidy! Hugs xx

OK, so look at it this way...... You DO have invitations, and you have turned them down, and unlike some of the others, i say good for you....for turning down what you dont want in your life....now dont chose alcohol either, or that is defeating the purpose of all this
This is what i think you should do
Sit down and think about 'what if'
What if, you had every thing available to do anything you wanted .......
What would that be?
Then keep asking until you have a whole list........even if it might sound weird to someone, dont worry about it, just no limitations, write it down.......
like you have no one defining you at all.........write it down
Then make a plan on how you are going to do it.....even if it takes you all next year to plan it.......
For this one, do something you like,
buy a few healthy snacks , ask a friend over that YOU like , and watch a movie
Make something crafty or bake a new years cake, start your own traditions you can carry into your life.....
Find someone, or thing to kiss as an I owe you... until you meet the real deal
Or get some candy kisses at the store and eat one at New YEars
Get in the habit of saying thankyou, on new years for all that you do have, which is considerable compared to others around the world...
Dont drink unless it is a small token of thanks
What do you WANT to do?
Do that.
Be grateful for your times alone, one day you will cherish them...........
Surprise your mom with a cake or some;thing........
be happy, look around you and be happy.......
you will figure it out
when you figure out what makes you happy,
and how to get what makes you happy;
Make a new years resolution to meet some people you want to meet, make friends with people you want to be friends with, and call someone you admire and ask them to be your mentor....then you will be ready for next year, and many years to come
Happy New Year
Millions of people make healthy choices at this time of year....many stay alone..rather than put up with all the things they dont want.......some just go to bed, like your mom.......... it is better than the stuff that harms or one doesnt like......say thankyou

I am 21 and have never had a kiss on New Year's. If you don't want to turn out like me, go to that party. You might feel awkward, but GO TO THE PARTY. If I could tell my 15 year old self one thing, I would say, "Practice socializing. Accept invitations, even if you feel stupid." You have to practice. You can't just automatically be perfect in social situations. They're called social SKILLS for a reason. Practice them. Go to the party. Either go, or be like me and be alone at 21 with no boyfriend for years, and no New Year's kiss, ever, and hardly any social skills. You are already thinking about alcoholism. How about this? How about you try everything, you work on your appearance, you work on your social skills, and you accept invitations. And then if none of it works for years and you feel like giving up and drinking, then think about it then.

These sorts of feelings are quite normal and you are in a situation where people you know seem to be older than you and you feel left out. Hey, enjoy New Year just because its another day, not because it is any sort of special. Believe me, you'll soon have a few more years under your belt and things will pick up for all sorts of reasons.

Life is too short to worry about new years eve...its just another day. Sounds like you have some options but your not willing to do any of them so i think you should stop crying about it because your doing this to yourself when everyone is politly inviting you to do something. And whats wrong with chillin with grandma? even if u see her often you should see her more. I wish i could have spent more time with my grandma, unfortunatly its too late for that. I say hang with granny.... or dont be such a baby and go to your friends party and have fun

the feelings mutual...
im fifteen too and im in exactly the same situation as you, dont you feel better already?
yeahhh i got asked to do a few things, partys and stuff, but mehhh not going.
its stupid because I should go!
listen there are heaps of kids that didnt even get invited to their great uncle smiths new years party because they're easily forgotten.
Whether you go or not to whatever is your choice, but be thankful that you did actually get invited somewhere (whether its your friends party or your grandmas house) because heaps of kids didnt, and they are going to be sat at home, just wishing someone, no matter who, invited them.
So be happy :)

you are 15 you should be spending it alone and not with a bunch of 19 and 20 somethings
when you are 20 and look back at a 15 year old you will see a child. i know its hard to understand but you are a child and therefore you should not be hanging around adults.

its cool you get to see your gma. i wish i would have been able to see mine more before she died. you are so young hon, thin kabout this, ill be alone with my one year old. My fiance ran off three weeks before our wedding and left me pregnant. I spent every new years alone or on a bus or plane. You really shouldnt put so much wieght on any one day. And it sounds like your being invited out ...so why not go again? If I can make it through new years, so can you!

i kno how u feel...im a loner myself. i dnt kno wat to tell u. i wud go for a walk and get sum fresh air and let my thoughts go crazy, but it wud be too dangerous: robbers, drunk drivers and all. do u play video games? thats wat i'd do, and hav a couple of beers. or i'd listen to music, mostly songs that sympathize with the way i feel. that way i can get my feelings out. i can get angry, upset, and/or even cry a little... blare the music if i want to. It makes me feel better cuz it reminds me of the all the **** i go thru and how im a stronger person becuz of it. Bein a loner lets u really find out who u r. u figure out wat u like, who u like, and all the things that make u, you, without goin thru all the drama. U learn to identify urself, and not let anyone get the best of you. a lot of people are co-dependent, and always need someone by their side, and most people are afraid to be being alone. U'll learn to be independent and not give a **** about anyone else thinks. Its ur life ur living for, not theirs.
me personally, i cud watch tv and not get depressed. umm, idk. get somone to buy u a paintball gun and go shoot **** in ur backyard, or spray paint a wall in ur room jus for the hell of hit. Do somethin spontaneous that will make u feel good inside, do somethin for u. If someone says blah blah blah, thats gonna ruin blah blah blah, say, 'so..' Or if someone asks u y, jus say, cuz u can.
From one loner the other, i wish u the best that a loner's life has to offer, and i promise u it will get better. all in good time.
