Not being willing to open up emotionally can make you feel more isolated. I've also found that it's difficult to know who your real friends are until you are vulnerable with them. Anyone can exchange pleasantries, but when the fun's over and someone's still with you...that's a true friend. Try to open up more with those you trust - be honest when they ask you questions like "how are you?" Speaking from experience, this helps build friendships, because not only have you demonstrated that you trust your friend, you've also shown them that you are okay with discussing negative feelings. Which means that if they're feeling terrible and hiding it from you, they'll now feel a lot more comfortable being honest about how they're really feeling and opening up to you.

I don’t know what to do anymore I made a friend recently in college and was texting her the other night and she mentioned she was doing her nails and I said nice and asked her if I could see. Because I was curious about what she did to them this time around and since then she has not responded to me I apologized to her saying I’m sorry if it bothered her but still nothing. Some of my friends just don’t answer me anymore I feel like I’m a burden of the ones who do still talk me I’m so done with it all. I’m tired of trying to find love as well I feel nothing to it anymore it’s only left me with disappointment and sadness I feel like I’m an unlovable husk of a person and that I would only ever be a bother I cannot fathom the idea of someone loving ME I just can’t I feel like it’s impossible I feel like everything about me bothers people to the point where I think is it even something I should try to achieve anymore. I should honestly block myself from trying to make new friends and relationships I’m so so tired of it. I feel unappreciated and annoyed that I am the one that has to try to keep up any sort of relationship because if I don’t reach out they never will reach out to me the reason I know this is because it’s been proven time after time since middle school that I am nothing to these people and I might as well no longer try. I don’t know what to do anymore I feel like I’m going to be all alone for the rest of my life I’m just so lonely now.

It seems every chance someone has to upset me they take it. It is like people don't pike me for some reason. I think I'm pretty good at being polite and holding my temper so I don't know what it is about me that they don't like. Why do they want to pushme?
