I was thinking of making this thread for a long time now. Please help me think of something or post your opinion. Thanks in advance. My friend looks like he is getting into depresion lately because he doesn't have any social skills. Since he was little he stayed home with his parents and couldn't socialize. So now he has a problem that he can't make long term friends and their friendship usually doesn;t last out of the classroom. He gets very depressed. I will be going abroad so i guess now he won't have any friends. To make things worse his parents want him to get an arranged marrige and he said he doesn't want that but he doesn't know what to do. Well he can't speak to girls cause he gets very nervous. I tried telling him to be calm and be his normal-self but of no use. Lately he has been depressed and he no longer likes things he once did such as playing PS2 or watching anime or Japanese Dramas. What can I do for him and What can he do for himself? \(~_~)/ THX.
