I'm close to giving up on making friends.

MuchSaferUsername April 14th

Hey, newbie and longtime lurker. I finally decided to post here.


I'm at a point right now where I think I'm better off staying alone. I have no friends at all except for online ones who rarely care about my presence, not surprising in the slightest. I've tried making friends in the past, but I can't do it for some reason. I'm not sure if it's because I'm picky or if I'm just a complicated person to deal with.


I've been alone for a very long time, only finding joy in listening to bands that I like and drawing. I do go outside sometimes, but there's rarely anything fun that I can do. Other than reading, I guess.


I think the best way that describes my personality is "I don't know." I don't know if I'm really me anymore.


Apologies.

I think often when actively looking for friends or even relationships.... we can not find anything even if we trip over it....

i know it is impossible to pretend we are not lonely or  not looking for friends...

I have tried reached out to lukewarm reception and people who never have time or i grow bored as they are not as interesting as i believed  .....

i realized in my life my best outcomes came from people i might have not considered top on my list of talk to these people.... 

what are we looking for people wise .... is a question and do we give everyone a fair shake to get to know them....
