Having trouble making friends and keeping friends
Hi:
I am here because I seem to keep having an ongoing struggle of making and keeping friends and when I do make them, most of the time they aren't a good fit or rather they aren't healthy relationships. A majority of them seem to be people with serious problems of their own and are hurting people who hurt others. Though I am not completely alone in the world, I struggle the most to form bonds with other females who most of the time fade out of my life because my behavior that was cute at first became annoying after a while. Other leave because their significant other, friends and other family don't want us together because they get the wrong idea about me.
I had a couple lose interest in me recently for
1. Leaving the past congregation where we all went to worship after feeling like most of the people there were not as accepting and understanding as they could of been. Thus, they treated me like a hald of a person there.
2. Because I opened up about few people at that congregation who bullied me and mentioned that something felt off about one of them
3. They felt that I got offended all the time and that wasn't good for me.
I can relate to your post so much! I was going to check out the newbie thread when this post caught my eye. Then I read you recently left your congregation, and so did I. Now not one of the members talk to us. Wow...so much in common. Plus the friends we did find, seemed to make excuses, were too busy. And the friends we just met have no filter.
