I'm just not sure if I have friends or not.

...See more I don't know if this belongs here - if it doesn't I'm sorry, I still need to figure this website out. I just need to vent for a bit... So, heres the problem - and this is an honest question: What are friends for? And I don't mean to say "I don't need friends", I genuinely don't know anymore. Because my whole life I feel my group of 'friends' has always been "just" aquaintances. People I'm happy to have - at least I have someone - but people I don't feel can help me when I'm down. I've tried to talk to a friend about me going to Therapy and the problems I was facing in that time and they literally told me I couln't talk to them about it, because it would "affect them" to much and pull them down as well. Now I don't know if that is a perfectly respectable answer and request for them to make, but I was hurt. It still does. Because I entrusted them with my problems, told them things I didn't tell anybody and they shot me down. And now I start questioning myself, if I am just to sensitive and dramatic or if my reaction is valid. I just don't know. And all other people I know I just don't trust as much as I trusted my friend. To this day I feel like a burden after that talk. And lonely. I just needed to get his out. Sorry.
