How to make friends?
How do I go about making friends? I’ve tried loads of things from countless apps website forums adding people after playing games online and all that happens is I either get blocked or ignored.yes not and then someone will add me and we talk a bit but it feels very much one sided like I’m putting effort into it.Guys I’ve added seems to wanna be nice at first and then when they find out I’m a guy I get blocked and insulted and some of the woman that add me back have only pretended to care about me and be my friend to get me to buy them things or purchase there online content.Im
not saying this is always the case but it has been mostly like this for me some people I’ve met we just simply don’t get along or mesh well so that can’t be helped.I can’t go
outside to make friends either because of my anxiety and agoraphobia I’ve not been out in over two year.
Im 25 from the uk I’m into movies especially horror films I’ll watch anything from cult classics ,new releases or even student films!Im a nerd when it comes to marvel and I enjoy star wars!I like watching anime and playing games!But I enjoy listening to other people talk about their hobbies and things they enjoy too! I’m always down to try something new and learn aswell!
I feel maybe I can come across quite forward with my current health as I explain things to ensure people know what they are getting into should I stop telling people about my situation?I have also noticed that I can get attached easy which I know is a bad thing as I feel like I’m bugging or being a burden to someone.
I spend my days doing nothing and talking to no one I cry every night and feel intense loneliness I really crave that socialising with someone even if it’s once or twice a week we talk for 5 minutes I’m more than happy with that just knowing someone will message me.
im unsure what else to write or say I’m not good with words.

I am so sorry for what happened to you and that your anxiety and agoraphobia prevented you from going out for over 2 years 💙. It hurts when one feels like not being able to build friendships, but many people actually have very few friends or none at all. Sometimes people may put too much pressure on themselves to establish friendships, which might backfire since they are perceived as needy or feel that they are disclosing too much personal information too quickly. It can help to take things slower, observe how people react in general and to open up to them step by step only when you feel really safe with them instead of giving them all details about your mental health. There are people who might take advantage of you or simply do not want to hear about it because it might make the reflect on their own issues.
Joining discussions and open chats are great ways to connect with other people and also offer the opportunity and make 7cups friends.

Hii, I can be your friend :D
How are you? And what kind of anime do you like? I like watching both Japanese and Chinese anime. For japanese anime, I like Studio Ghibli movies. And for chinese anime, I really like All Saints Street and I think you should try watching it on youtube :D it's such a cute anime

And also, I can empathize with you because I used to feel so lonely too to the point that I'd cry myself to sleep, but it gets better with time, and I hope it gets better for you too. Take care
