Oh god....Ly-chan, we were right about the BPD.

Loneliness Quotient: 64%

Your Personalized Assessment Report:
Your LQ score is a bit on the higher end, meaning you've got some issues that need to be worked out. We will examine them and then suggest possible remedies. You've got some difficulties with having friends that need improvement. This is one area you should work on. Additionally, some family-related issues are partly to blame for your level of loneliness. Solving family issues can often be tricky, but doing so will improve your score. You are not completely fulfilled in your romantic life, and this is an area that can be improved upon. However, it does not seem like anything drastic is in order. Shyness is one major factor holding you back. In order to eliminate your loneliness you must overcome your difficulty with interacting with others. Complicating the situation further is the fact that you don't live in a good location for finding similar people. You may need to look outside your current area or simply dig deeper. Personal insecurity is playing a major role in limiting your healthy interactions with others, and by working on this factor you can help decrease your LQ further.

Take the Loneliness Quotient Test at Dating Diversions

Love/Romance Areas

You can reduce your level of loneliness by finding love. Loneliness leads to many negative feelings, even including the belief that you will never find that special girl to complete you. This is most certainly not the case. Millions of people are single, and many of them believe they'll never find the love of their life. This is not true. You are young, and such feelings are common among teenagers.

Friend Issues

You can reduce loneliness by expanding your circle of friends. Dating Diversions does not currently offer friendship matching services, but you can find people near you who share your interests at MeetUp.com. And, especially in some areas, it can be hard for gay individuals to establish deep and meaningful friendships. Glimpse.com does friendship matches for gays and lesbians.

Dating Diversions is currently building a database of localized advice that may be of help to you. Most of it is currently geared toward daters, but it could be useful to friend-seekers as well. Common advice is to meet people at coffee shops, bars, and local events. Try new things. You won't meet new people if you keep doing what you've been doing.

Family Issues

They say you can pick your friends, but you can't pick your family. Sometimes you simply get dealt an unlucky hand. Family issues are tough, and it would take another whole test to discover why you are having trouble with your family matters. If you can see a psychologist to work out these issues, it would probably be a big help.

Shyness and Social Anxiety

Shyness can be quite a difficult obstacle to overcome, and many shy people simply feel doomed to a higher degree of loneliness than the rest of the population. Talk therapy and medication can yield incredible results, but there is a catch-22 involved: If you are shy, you're not likely to go and see someone to talk out your problem with. If you can build up the determination to do it, go for it.

Location

Location issues are difficult to overcome, unless you're ready to pack up and move! Actually, the truth is you do not have to move to find people, unless you are in an extremely rural area. Some advice: spend more time in a nearby town or city. If you don't have a car, take public transportation. Visit an area nearby that you've never been to before. Try to find like-minded people in your area using a site like FriendFinder.com, or meet local people in certain interest groups at Meetup.com. . Odds are there are more people like you in your area, and you just haven't found them. They are sitting around just like you are, thinking what a boring town they live in, not realizing others are thinking the same thing. Try to get to know new people and you might find that your town isn't as lonely as you had first thought.

Insecurity and Self-Esteem (shit...here it comes.)

The LQ test revealed a degree of underlying self-esteem issues, which are likely having a negative impact on your life. The best advice to give you is to see a psychologist and get started on a program to improve your self-image. You can find psychologists in your area simply by opening up the yellowpages. They are professionals trained to get to the root of your insecurity issues and work on solving them.

If therapy isn't something you would consider right now, you could try one of the self-help books written by experts in the field.

...fffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucccccccccccckkkkk.
