Is this weird?

sunnyangel3333 October 23rd

Generally, I do not keep friends too often. Its very difficult for me because i'm bad at communication, and so much as opening some apps gives me aggressive anxiety. I don't just struggle with friendships, but romantic and familial relationships as well- 

I'm sort of at the point where I just want a best friend again, i don't care much for romance and am not in a place for it, but i would really like a new best friend. someone i could talk to anytime, someone i could depend on and could depend on me. I miss that so much, and it hurts my heart so much i don't have one anymore. 

I would give anything for that at this point. I'm done with romance for now, i just need friends.

having friends and like that one friend we can call our bestest friend who is around to talk to and spend time with specially when we are struggling or feeling lonely can be so helpful...i guess...💕

hope you do find meaningful friendships 🤗

I feel this way too. I see everyone making friends easily and I'm here struggling to make even one friend. I feel so lonely.

          Making and keeping friends is NOT a one sided situation.. We cannot change or control how the other person feels or adds to a friendship. 

I have made some friends but they expected me to make all plans followup with all things. That simply does not work.  We make assumptions that they did not call/ text because they are busy and they do the same about us... so we both stay alone instead of just making the text or call.  

Too many people are not friends because we have filled our lives with apps / games and if a person is not just like us we disregard.... I met someone almost a year ago we talk about all sorts of things cooking/ hobbies and world events we do not agree 100% on things and so while i would consider them a friend ........they actually said they NEVER had a friend who was not of same thought about everything... how boring is that?    

some people have very different ideas of what friendship is as well some want constant contact while others are fine with a once in a while thing....

when you see others that "make it seem easy"    ask yourself to look deeper ... maybe they are friends of convenience  like school/ work friends that share proximity once a person finishes school or changes jobs the text dwindle and then for many it is over.
