I give up
I give up on people. Everytime I try to make friends it doesn't pursue further. I worked with this girl who had mental health issues, and we both got along and could relate a bit. I could see us being good friends. Then she got a new job, and barley heard from her since, and I just saw she deleted me off Facebook. I just don't understand. She was honestly the first person who gave me words of encouragement, and it was nice. I'm just tired of putting in effort and confinfing in people who could care less about me or even try.
@Mre605 I understand. I feel like I'm always trying so hard to connect to people around me. It really sucks when I see them turn around and make friends with others right in front of me. I feel like it's me, and I don't know what it is about me that they didn't want to be friends. I have hope though that we can find people that stick around, and that we can have meaningful relationships with them. Happy thanksgiving!
@heartfultimes yes, just as you said.. not everyone is the same so there is hope that one can find a true friend that won't leave or turn on you. I'm sorry that you encountered people who hurt you like that and honestly don't know why those people do that but I can understand that sucks. We cannot force people in our lives all we can do is keep looking for people who are worth our efforts. Happy Thanksgiving to you both (:
@heartfultimes Happy Thanksgiving to you as well. I'm starting to think the same that's there's something wrong with me. I also just don't understand people's motives, and even my past best friends now put me second or last. Maybe one day I'll find someone. Until then I'm just going to enjoy my solitude. Some days are easier then others.
@heartfultimes hi, I can relate so much! I never had friends even if I tried very hard on that since I was a teen and now I am 31 and I still try but Its a completely failure for me.. I've been very disappointed by many people I thought that maybe we can relate and build something beautiful. I think I am an old fashioned person and friendship like I have it in my mind doesn't exist. I don't know.. I understand your feelings so much

My idea of friendship might seem old-fashioned as well. I want close friendships you know? The ones that if you're having a shit day, that they will be there on the other end of the line, or that if they needed me, I'd be there, and vice-versa.
Sometimes I feel like I have built up an idea of what a friendship would be like with someone, but that person never seems to want to be more than acquaintences. It could also be that I am not the type of person that they want to be friends with.
I'd love to get to know you better. Who knows could happen.
@heartfultimes hi!! i am sorry I did't see your answer before, but I would love to meet you somehow and see if we can create a friendship :) I hope you are still around here.
I understand where you are coming from. Hard when you put a lot of effort into a friendship and another person doesn't. Because of that I have few true friends. I discard toxic people but still have hope I can still find a few true friends.
I definitely feel the same! I always would put all the effort to get none in return! And it just seems like people are only out for theirselves and don't care about anyone else anymore..
