Put up some ads on furry sites and groups. Nobody replied.
Idk how to feel. Even when I try my best to socialize, it never works.
-
What kind of ads did you put up?
sometimes it just takes time and it may take longer then you thought for people to start replying.
-
Just posts saying I was lonely and needed to socialize. Also included a photo.

Try to look for folks that you are interested in rather than hoping those people will come to you. ^_^

Every time I do that, they ignore me and don't answer my messages.

where have you been posting?
don't think I have seen you around?
((New here >_>))

Try introducing yourself along with mentioning you are looking to socialize.
Including your interests, hobbies, personality, and lifestyle generates discussion and gives people an idea of who you're looking for in a friend. It will also encourage others to talk about themselves, too!
Also, saying you're 'lonely' often gives the wrong impression. I would recommend saying you would like to make new friends or meet new people.

You can't sound sad and expect people to come to you. You can only sound happy and do that lol
I would try going outside to socialize more in real settings AKA stores, work, school, etc. because friendship seeking online is just asking for let downs and weird encounters.
If you really absolutely are insistent on seeking friends online, its all about wording, where to post, and how you post it.

I can't take this anymore. I can't handle this IRL loneliness.
I mean these guys were both very attractive, got lots of attention, lots of post likes, positive comments, talented, outgoing, very happy together...
I'll never get any of that stuff. I can't live knowing that they get it and I don't.
And I have no IRL friends. This online stuff isn't cutting it anymore.
Man I just... can't even explain how I'm feeling... it's just so horrible...

So what you're saying is other people being happy upsets you?

This may seem like difficult advice to follow it it's honestly some of the best out there I can give. Turn the negative lonely emotion into energy to go out there and find friends : join a gym /sports club or apply for some part-time classes (if you're not already in school), they can be some good ways to meet new people.
The main thing is putting yourself out there, which I know can seem quite hard but it's really the only way to meet new people. Good luck on it ^_^

Why are you doing this to yourself? From what I read here, and the previous posts from you I read... If what you posted here is true, I doubt we can help you much. You should probably go to a mental health professional.

So what you're saying is other people being happy upsets you?
Unfortunately, yes.
It varies depending on demographic.
A gay male popufur couple with lots of talents and fans and things I want... gets me so upset that I can't describe it on here.
Why are you doing this to yourself?
I wish I knew. ;-;

I hate to admit I'm desperate. It makes me seem pathetic. I'm not pathetic. I'm not ugly. I deserve good things because I put out good things.
But I hate to say... I'm desperate. Yep. And it sucks.
-
Desperate of what?
-
Desperate of what?
Everything. ;-;
