i've been thinking about this for a while.. and decided it's for the best.

so sick of people telling me- they can't handle my issues, i'm too much work, they are scared to talk to me... so i'm going to just give up trying to make any friends- i'm just going to be alone

not quite sure if a life without friends is possible, but heck.. i'm going to give it a go

I am sorry to hear you are so down. Take care of yourself and give yourself time.

I totally get you on that right there, shatteredsanity ...

Friendships in real life don't work out for me very well, either ... I'm either too much or not enough and often feel it's not okay to talk about my real life issues and struggles and that leaves me feeling as if they only want me around when I'm up and entertaining then want me to go back in my cave when I'm down, gloomy and/or withdrawn.

I realize I'm not "normal", but I'm "normal" for me based on what I've been through, and so are you!

Those that only want bright, shiny pennies to hang out with are going to be disappointed to find I'm tarnished on the inside so why bother putting myself through that kinda heartache anymore?

Again, sorry you've got the friendship blues too ...

Sincerely,
Pfrog!



ps. Ive got this one person I thought was a good, close friend that relocated to a city about 1.5 hours away last June ... I've done all I can to maintain connection, and have come to realize that perhaps they don't see our friendship the same way I do, so I've decided I'm not going to initiate anymore contact for a while to see if they reach out ... If not, I figure that one's over too, and though it saddens me, perhaps it's the kindest cut of all to simply allow another friendship to simply fade away ...

I'm sorry you're feeling so alone. People often don't understand or or what to say.

You know I feel the same exact way! People disappear on me all the time and leave me so dam disappointed to the point to where I'm like screw it I will just be by myself. As of right now, I am totally by myself. My phone is dead silent, my email is empty, no is on SKype. Everyone is all out having a good old time.....without me.

I guess its better that way. Good luck to you on your new found freedom from friends!

Hey hon...people are people all over the rainbow. Finding that one special takes work

I'm all about it. Even though we feel that human kind is F...... we are going hunting!

Life is an adventure no matter how things are. I'm special...hang on and here we go!!!

Shattered sanity- I've felt like that in the past, I actually thought might as well help encourage. I tested a few and have gotten the exact same thing seems like too much, your not capable of helping, in I still feel that is true.....It would take a novel to put it all in perspective to know how to help/friend us. I think if you change your perspective based on what you have deal with them maybe you can open the door for friendship or examine if it is even needed. Today, I take anything as help, a view, listening ear, kind words . I just don't expect that much. When I get that much I just try to make sure my best selves are their for my friend, because ultimately there is going to be something you don't like about a person kinda similar to a relationships you love that friend for who they are despite the short comings hopeful the same is in return you and all alters involved.
