Difficulty getting close to anyone

79% Normal
9 Comments

I have a very healthy relationship with my family and I'm still living at home, as I am in my late teens. I still go to school, but only recently have I found it hard to make close friends or best friends, or fit into a group. I have had best friends before, but in the past year or so, it has been difficult. I feel different to everyone else. I find that most people I go to school with are very immature and therefore I don't make much effort. However I'm always polite to everyone. I have loads of friends, but not the best friend kind. Anyone know what's going on?

    I am in the exact same position. I did have loads of really close friends last year in school but now i hardly speak to any of them. Now it seems like i only have about 2 or 3 real friends and it really sucks.

    I feel that way too. I think my friends need to get a life and stop being so child-ish. It's like taking care of a toddler. Your just a bit more mature than your friends but I still recommend you to get a friend that cares about you and has a similar personality. Improving your social life is always a first.

    Could be that as you are growing up you are realizing that quality matters a whole lot more than quantity. Maybe try thinking about tghe things you value most, and then where it is likely that you will meet people like that.

    Its normal. I was like that too. If you want a best friend? what i did is make friends with older people. My best friend is 6 years older than me. It can be hard but having a hobbie or something that older people enjoy too, can help.

    if you want to make friends who are trustyworthy.
    I suggest you try PenPal or Facebook.

    better to have no friends than bad ones. you can always catch up later. the bad ones drag on forever.
