What do you mean have someone take an interest in you? It usually takes a while to build a friendship with people on internet communities.

Remember that all of us are fighting our own battles inside and while we try to be compassionate and helpful, sometimes those battles steal our focus. This goes for everyone, even people without anxiety and depression.

Perhaps you don't have the right people around for you to have a mutually beneficial give and take type friendship or relationship. It takes time and luck to find those... also, they don't always last. However, maybe it's worth thinking about how good they are when you have them so don't give up on pursuing them.

I don't think there's anything you need to do for those to come along except remain open to them and try to be friendly? If you find you need more social interaction, I'd say seek it out. However, I don't think trying to morph existing relationships where you're being ignored or mistreated into something else is really a good recipe for success.

One of the few things I've done right is not be afraid to move on from people who are toxic to how you feel too, if you're here I'm sure you already put enough negative pressure on yourself and don't need it from other people who only feed you negativity.
