Is it normal to feel detached after a while?

5 Comments

I am a very friendly person and I have it extremely easy to befriend new people, but I realized that whenever I make new friends I tend to forget about the ones I already had. I usually stop being close to people when I feel like I'm being too clingy or I'm opening up too much.

I tend to believe they are not really interested in being friends because after a while people stop treating me the same so I move on to the next group of friends. This usually happens each 6 months or so. So... IIN?

    I used to be afraid of clinging too much to a group of people, so I tried to hop to another group, but I realised I couldn't leave... It's nice to have at least one constant friend though, because you can always rely on that person

    Make sure you have a group that you don't alienate. You'll thank me later

    You are what they call an OUTSIDER. i'm one too. You keep moving from group to group trying to figure out where u fit. People will treat you differently because you may not fit in with them. as soon as you see this happen, MOVE ON. you dont fit in. look around you though. you may find several people exactly like you. they may or may not be huddled together. if so, experiment by placing yourself with that group. you may find that u fit in perfectly.

    My bestfriends have been my friends since I was little. I make new friends but don't dump my old ones...not normal in my opinion. Maybe you should see a counsellor, sounds like you may have a disorder and I'm seriously saying that in a nice way. Not meaning to sound harsh or mean. It's good that you make friends easy though :)

    You can't exactly become somebody's best friend all of a sudden can you? If it's a bff you want that's not how you get it.
