I am an only child and both of my parents are only children so there is not much family. I have a couple of people who I thought were my best friends (almost like the brothers I never had). I went all through high school being picked on and didn't have many friends. I am a very shy person. My parents are about 10 years older than my friends parents and they are totally different. It seems lately that my best friends and I keep getting into arguments about stupid things. When they are mad at me I feel so hurt cause I feel like I have noone! Well tonight was another argument and this one was pretty intense. I'm really beginning to think they really dont care and I really do have noone. I've told them many times how much they mean to me and how I don't know what I would do without them, but I dont think they take me seriously. I just felt like I needed to talk to someone cause I'm really upset about this whole thing and dont know what to do. I can't imagine life without them!

Sorry tonight was so hard for you. I know that arguing is very difficult. And I am sorry you have had to go through this. Know that you are not alone in this world. We are here and we are listening. I know we are not there in real life but we are here walking this road with you.

It is hard as many times others do not get what we are going through. They do understand how we feel. Sometimes it is hard for them to see if they are not going through it or have not walked where we are walking.

Try to breathe. I know it is not easy. Whenever I get into an arguement it makes me very upset. And I have to remind myself to breathe. I have had to learn to be patient and give that person their space. And I have had to know that is not the end of the world if we have an arguement.

I try to remember that sometimes things are said that are taken out of what is meant by them because there is a misunderstanding. And misunderstandings can be worked out. Take time to reflect on what happened and maybe there is something there that you need to think on.

I know it is hard. It seems like forever when I wait. It is so hard. And I validate what you are feeling. I hope you will be kind to yourself. Things will work out. Thank you for posting and for sharing. We are here for you and listening. And we care. Sending gentle hugs.

Hello Kelly, it's nice to meet you, welcome to psych central.
I am sorry that you and your friends argued this evening, that is so hard especially when you are only close to a few people. Have you considered trying to get out there and make some new friends by joining a hobby club or local support group?
Keep posting here, people really do care.
