Hey guys,
I don't really post here much.. but something's been kind of upsetting me lately, and I figured it'd be best if I post on here. It's late, and it probably won't flow or sound cohesive, so bear with me :)
Over the last couple months, I've slowly drifted away from the few people I used to deem my "best" friends. It's been many years since I had someone like that to depend on, so rather, these were people I thoroughly enjoyed being with, people I could somewhat trust, and people that were generally good company. The last one of them is making many changes in his life, he's getting engaged and clearly has many things ahead of him.
I'm kind of pissed, because I'm bogged down with school and work, and I'm constantly surrounded by people who aren't getting me where I want to be. We call ourselves friends, but in reality, a lot of it is just competition, drama, and immature school-related crap.
In other words, we don't connect on many levels. We certainly don't get along like good friends do, and many of my "friendships" seem so superficial, like it's for the good of something else.
I'm usually never loud-spoken, I can keep to myself, but my newfound independence from college has definitely opened me up. I'm just not the best socializer, I'm hardly in a position that meets many new people and many people I meet tend to be extremely reserved. I'm really wanting to find people that can help me get my life on track again.
To my friends on VT reading this.. I realize I've probably only given you all pieces of what I've been going through. This is just something part of something even more complex. I'm sorry but I would explain if I knew how to.
Should I ask for help or advice? Is there even any to be given? I don't even know.. :what:
