I’ve been feeling this way too. I just have one person who’s close but is 1,000 miles from me in another state. There’s emails but it’s not the same. I have the personality type that craves emotional connection but I continually get people who aren’t emotionally mature enough to handle or want these connections. As I get older I can only hope it won’t always be this way. No one will even check on me, even neighbors. And I recently discovered someone telling me “if I ever need anything to let her know” was just lip service. I was devastated for days.
It’s the kind of thing that keeps me awake at night sometimes. I feel so vulnerable and the more I try not to think about it, the more I think about it.
