Friendship struggles

@elaboratelayal

Hello!! I'm sorry to hear that even after putting efforts you had to go through this. I love cartoons and anime!! What's wrong with that? 😭😭 I can relate and yes I've gone through same situation too.. i wanted people to acknowledge me and accept me for who i am but ended up alone even after putting efforts..

To be honest, my friend, its not okay to change yourself or put extra efforts to make someone be your friend.. because ultimately we can't possibly do everything according to the expectations of others. So, first and foremost thing:

Be yourself ❤️❤️ those who want to be with you will naturally be there.. and they will accept you for who you are!! We can't choose the family we are born to but we can always choose the friends we make.. i hope you find some good friends as soon as possible.. we are here for you 💘 

Thank you, lovely ð©· I needed to hear that. I'm just like you I love anime, cartoons, coloring and more..! It is just very lonely to like these things that bring out my happiness and see people sh*itting on it. I love myself enough to do these things that will make me happy, it's just that when people always criticise you for it , it makes me start to doubt myself if I'm truly 'childish' and 'weird' or not. But u are right, I shouldn't change myself for anyone and I'll continue being myself and drop those people who don't like the real "me". The people who like me will eventually find their way into my life ð«¶

Feeling left out and misunderstood can be tough.

Your interests in cartoons, drawing, and colouring are valid and valuable!

2. Embracing your uniqueness.

3. Seeking friendships built on mutual acceptance.
