A lot of the time people will find that they always tend to support everyone around them but when it comes down to that person needing help everyone seems to disappear. Now this certainly can have quite the emotional toll on a person but it doesn't always have to mean something negative. Perhaps it means you are emotionally stronger than most people around you. It doesn't have to mean that they don't but it could mean that they aren't strong enough to handle their emotions on top of trying to handle yours. But you are able to push your feelings aside for whomever and help them out unselfishly. It doesn't mean no one is there for you. I just might mean, maybe you aren't as broken as you feel because you are strong enough to stand up by yourself and always have

I feel this way too sometimes, I try to be there for someone but sometimes what I did is not enough for them. Maybe because they thought that you are capable enough of doing on your own. Sometimes we just having a hard time to reveal our true colors and we ended up showing that we are strong enough in the surface but they forget to seek what's on our inside. We are vulnerable and fragile too but they only see the strong version of us. Perhaps that's why they don't be there for you because all this time they only get the chance to see how strong you are on your own.
