When I was younger, I always preferred an older crowd. Early 20's, most of my friends were in the 40-50 year old bracket. Now in my 30's, I'm comfortable chatting with nearly all age brackets. It sounds like it's time to broaden your horizons....even if that means a "history" lesson in classic games. You should familiarize yourself with the games or topics of conversation that they were discussing. That way, you can engage them the next time.
I saw on your profile that you work in an office job. I'm an executive assistant. If my field has taught me anything, it's to never stop broadening your horizons. What if you have to accompany your boss and colleagues to a dinner with a potential client? Chances are good, you'll probably be the youngest one at the table, and you can't sit there playing on your phone. Social skills are extremely important in the corporate world. Take opportunities like this to learn more. You never know when you might be able to impress a client with your knowledge William Edwards Deming's kaizen work in Japan, or proper ettiquette with Japanese business owners. Or maybe, silly enough, the history of the Final Fantasy media franchise.
Don't let it be awkward0 -
This is more of an issue with the age barrier than anything. You lack the social skills to bridge that gap. It is unfortunate, but it is what it is.
This is because your social skills are better.0 -
Get off your phone and jump in with the conversation!
I have lots of friends older and younger and never have this problem. My circle spans a good 40 years from youngest to oldest.0 -

No one is judging you. I realize it is tough.0 -

Sup girl, I read boyfriend, not husband. How YOU doin?0 -
that awkard moment when i get tent action in my khakis in class
people let her do whatever she wants to do....she didnt say judge her she said entertain her.
You may or may not have noticed that MFPers are reluctant to follow instructions of OPs...
...(especially when they think an OP is doing it wrong).
thats why this site sucks. its more of a judgemental system than a support system.0 -
^ I judged a tiny bit : (0

Im naturally quiet socially.
Intimidation is the worst.
You feel intimidated.
If you want things to work out, you need to find a way to communicate.
What if you google classic gaming so you can some how join in the convo?0 -

to count my macros and be apart of the small percentage who actually supports....you were the first one to call her out on lacking social skills, you must be proud of yourself.0 -
Can you pull your boyfriend aside and ask if he can figure out how to include you in the conversation?
Otherwise, forget them. They don't sound very friendly and it says more about them that they didn't include you when you're the person who is new, and they already know each other. That's rude.0 -

You think *that* is why this site sucks? Because people don't blindly offer "support" and suppress sharing what they believe is actually more helpful/useful advice? You would prefer that people strictly honor her wishes and provide the entertainment she requested instead of pointing out that her behavior (ie, being on the phone all the time) is possibly a significant barrier to her participation in the discussion?
Personally, I believe *that* viewpoint is what is wrong with this site. To me, that is not really support.0
