I would try to tell them that you don't appreciate them commenting on your body and/or appearance. It's a boundary that you're allowed to have. As well as that, it's also important to realize that there are plenty of people you haven't met that are going to be friends, or people you just enjoy talking to. Sometimes people go through a time where they don't have any close friends, and although it may be painful, you can learn more about yourself that way. Then, if you want, you can try to find new friends (or they could find you, you never know), and you'll know exactly what you value in a friendship, and how you want to be treated.

Hm, some people just lack empathy. A friend went - Oh, you got grey hair - I haven't noticed the bit of grey at the sides of my head, before she pointed it out. Same with my troat, it looks chubby now, but she pointed out, that it always did, so now when I look at old pictures, I tend to see it as well. Maybe address, that you are not happy with them critisizing your looks. If the don't understand, or are not willing to at least try to change, you still have the option to cut them off.

You need to find yourself some non-toxic people. They're like slowly corroding acid.

I’m scared people are using me for their personal gain and that no one on this earth will ever view me as an actual person. I don’t want to be someone’s friend/girlfriend/wife because they’re lonely, I want to be in their life because they actually like me and VALUE me. I don’t know the difference between my instinct and my ocd sometimes. I think I tend to make sound judgements and usually perceive others accurately to the truth of who they really are; but now im scared to do this because what if im proved wrong once again, wasted my time, and ignored signs I should’ve noticed all along? I cannot make this mistake again. I can’t trust another person again to the point where I think if they compliment me, talk to me, or make an effort to know me, they’re only doing it for a transactional, convenient purpose. They must want something from me that is something superficial/benefits only them, not a real or authentic connection. My brain is telling me they must all be lying to me because they pity me, and think im dumb or naive. This is not how I feel about my relationships with people, this is how my ocd thinks others perceive me. I feel like im getting punished over and over again for making past mistakes and God is sending me people who don’t actually like/love me to teach me a lesson. I can’t fucking stand it anymore. I wish I could trade lives with someone who doesn’t think this way. I don’t understand what I did to deserve the weirdest/meanest people come into my life and fuck my perception of humanity even more than how I viewed it before. Can someone tell me why I even care this much about it? What do I do? Why does this happen?? I’m crying and im so embarassed im even posting this. We have such small amounts of time on earth and my head sabotages me to hate every minute of it. I want it to stop
