Hi. Welcome to the site. I am fairly new here myself. I have been going through the same thing as you really. I have had a difficult time making friends my whole life and i know it's very frustrating and depressing when you really need some support. I have posted numerous ads online looking for friends and they have either ignored me or i have found something i didn't like about them so i didn't respond to them. I see now that i have made a lot of mistakes in wording things and in not taking more chances by getting back to people regardless of how they sound.

Right now, i'd say i only have 2 really close friends and they just happen to be my Mom and my boyfriend. I have several acquaintances online, but they're too busy to hang out with me these days.

When you're depressed, you often don't think about how you're coming off to other people. I know it's just like you're buried under a big negative cloud so it can make everything more difficult (especially finding friends).

I really wish you the best of luck with things and hope that eventually we find good friends. You can pm me if you ever need some support and would like somebody to talk to.
Thanks for this!
