"Shallow" friends again ?

[lily101]

I want some feedback here
In other words WHAT Am I doing wrong ?

I went Sunday to the Church I had been atending off and on for several months now. They do a "social Hour" (Which I will likely never attend again) After the service They have snacks and they have a big room with round tables and everyone sits around and talks

Well not everyone

I went in early, sat down at a table. The other tables filled up, no one sat down with me. I ate alone (Which I am used to) Finally this one guy , most unpleasant, came over and started talking to me about why I was at that church and what he believes etc etc He was going off on how the "Intellectuals" have put themsleves above GOd (Something I have never heard any intellectual theologan personally say) GOing on about creationism, calling Darwin a Devil and wrong (Obviously never read Darwin or any post Darwin commentary) Never once cracked a smile, not the most pleasant of human beings

SO Let me see ------- I was there 45 minutes, one person spoke to me and it was a most unpleasant human being who basically made the whole experience even worse
No one else even gave me a "Hello"

Time to move on AGAIN

It's hard for everyone making new friends. But it shouldn't be that hard at a church event.

You have to choose:
1. You go back a try again. Praying before the time! Not going in first but & going to a tabel asking/saying 'It's my first time here can i sit with you?'
OR
2. Go and look for a church where people show that they are disciples of God through the love they have for those around them.
OR
3. Talk to someone you know about you looking for a church. You usualy get invited and then you can decide if it's the church you'd like to join or not...take it from there.

Only you can make the choice!

Well One problem there : No ONE and I mean NO ONE I know ever invites ME to go with THEM

What I did last Sunday was STAY HOME
Not so much becuase of the week before, but because I had a really really BAD week and was not in the mood to go.
My decision.

THey are having a big "to do " for lack of a better phrase this week, something about a new member receptoion
I am planning to not be there
Such things normally make me somewhat uncomfortable, but the way I was ignored last time really made me not want to be included (like I felt included anyway)
