I get on well with most people (both guys and girls) and they seem to like me, but I just don't seem to get invited out or have the confidence to do this with others, even from school (this is the same with girls), as I'm unsure exactly where I belong. I feel like I'm stuck at home all the time and use Facebook as a means to stay in touch socially from the comfort of home. I know I can change this, I'm just looking for ways of how to do it. I just don't want to get to the end of school and it to be like this. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hey,I totally get what you mean. I'm much the same. What I did was simply butting in when I overheard classmates of mine making plans. "That sounds like fun, can I tag along?" is pretty much all you need. Only an a-hole says no after that. Try to initiate things by yourself. Ask your friends/acquaintances what they're going to do in the weekend and if you can come along. So instead of waiting to be invited, invite people yourself!
