I have no real friends

Ahhh... were do I start? I dont think i really have alot of friends and the ones I do have... I dont think like me very much. Im going away for a trip and no one has even called me to say goodbye.. not even my best friends. My own cousins dont care and want nothing to do with me. I dont mean to rant on and be all emo like, but it sucks not having friends... Sitting at home in your room all the time gets to you sometimes, and I just need someone to talk too, I hope I make friends were ever Im going in life, cause the ones I that were my friends really just turned out to be people that dont even like me.

    Completely normal. Depends what you are looking for and what you consider a friendship. Some people consider a friendship just that, a friendship. Someone to shoot the shit with, someone to maybe go grab a beer with or hollar at women. Other people don't really consider these people friends, the only people they consider friends is someone who will give them the shirt off of their backs, or be there if they really need help with something.
    I've come to stop really caring. I don't give a fuck what people think and maybe I'll go grab a beer with someone now and then, but I don't really consider them my "true" friend. I feel what your saying, I don't really trust anyone enough to call them my friend.

    I only hang with my family. My high school friendships took their toll on me and now I prefer not to get close to people. Probably not normal, but that's how it is.

    I can see what you mean. I think I am too much of an inner person, I am always thinking and this effects how people view me because they have no idea what I was thinking. I would say I have friends but noone who is close enough for me to go to if something bad happens. I'm going to be starting a clean slate in uni, so I would advise you to also start a clean slate, to just make friends everywhere and organisisong event brings people closer.

  • This is pretty common. A lot of us feel the "No true friends" kind of feeling. The truth is nothing is forever, and eventually friendships drift apart. But more can always be made.

    I know how you feel. My friends are often the same way. Sometimes I question my friendships and wonder whether I'm actually a friend or just someone to talk to out of boredom. It's kind of depressing, but at the same time I have a few really good friends that I can talk to about everything. I guess you just have to know where you stand with them. Overall you're better off having a few really close friends than a bunch of pretenders. If you feel this way about your friends, relatives, etc, tell them how you feel. Talk it over with them.

    Real friends are really really a strange thing to have. And most of the people you would consider good and real friends, are just good honest people who are like that with everyone, not with you exclusively. Good people make good friends, and out of that small bunch may come someone who really cares about you in a special way.

    I often feel that way If my friends ignore me and don't notice me even when I've been there for almost 5 minutes. It makes me feel sad and not so sure of myself. So to me it is normal.

    Don't get too down about it, you don't need lots of friends to be happy. Besides,I feel maintaining lots of friendships takes up too much time off one's hands. Focus on your stuff and you will make other friends along the way

    i know how it is, for years i thought two girls were my best friends who would always be with me, and we had planned our lives together from renting a house with each other in our twenties to meeting back up when we were old and our husbands had died and children were living their lives, but a few weeks ago they told me they hated me and i haven't talked to them since. i isolated myself with them and never really paid to much attention to school friends and when they left me i realized that i was left with no friends, just those normal school friends who you sit with at lunch. it doesnt bother me too much though because when I'm older I'll have some good people to be around

    You sound like a little kid who hides in their house from their family just to see if anyone cares they are missing. Friendships are two-sided.
