I used to be delusional about everyone being out to get me. While I understand that everybody isn’t actually out to get me, I’ve come to realize nobody must like me very much. I’ve noticed from spending time with my fiancé and his friends that his friends all treat him very differently than mine treat me. His hit him up and speak to him and see him on a regular basis. He has mutual relationships with them all. Not so much for me. I have one friend. We’ll call her Katrina. Katrina is honestly my only real true honest to god friend. I don’t believe that any of my other friends would ever speak to me again if I didn’t contact them first. Katrina texts me first sometimes and I text her first other times. She willingly paid for my birthday dinner together. She remembers my birthday without Facebook reminding her and she texts me to wish me happy birthday and on every holiday. Our friendship is maintained mutually. My other friendships are completely one sided with me pulling all the effort. I don’t know what to do about this. I love my only friend to death but sometimes I want to be like everyone else and be well liked. I want people to want to be around me. I’m jealous of the way my fiancé interacts with his friends. I literally feel like Tarzan watching Jane live a normal life effortlessly and here I am a total outcast playing with my animals by myself. I mean I have dogs and not gorillas but whatever. The point is that I want friends. Not just one. I need more social stimulation than just my fiancé and Katrina. I also need to not feel like a reject
Is there anything you can do to meet new people? You’re so cheerful and nice, I’m sure you can meet good people and make friends
I’m similar to you, in that I have people I consider friends, and then I have people I consider good friends. I haven’t had a good friend in a while. I’ve had drinking buddies in the past. They don’t want anything to do with me if I’m not buying the beer. I don’t need such leeches in my life.
Aww thanks! I wanna go do stuff but there’s nothing around here. I’d love to take a community cooking class or a sport something but there’s none of that around here. I live in the middle of nowhere. It’s all banks and pharmacies and strip malls. There’s nothing social to do in the town I live in
Yeah you’re right you don’t need people like that in your life. Hopefully we have better luck finding friends from here on out. It’s tough to meet quality people
Awww New Jersey at its finest
I know right. It’s like it’s own little slice of hell lol
I know how you feel @PrincessKenny. All my friends are interstate. And there’s not many of them.
I’d like to have a friend down here.
@PrincessKenny
sometimes it is better to have one true friend than many fake friends
It’s hard not having people around to interact with. It drives you nuts sometimes!
I definitely agree with that. I’d just like some other people I’d have the option of spending time with when my best friend is busy
