Ever Feel Like You Never Have Real Friends?

[Nmgoldleader99]

You ever feel like you have 'friends' but nobody really ever to talk to or feel your true emotions with. I have 'friends' and i used to have a true friend then he changed and is ''2 cool''. How should i fix my problem?

All the time. I have friends online but it would be nice to have a great friend IRL that I could see and spill all my shit to y'know?

[Hatsune Miku]

Yeah. It's like, there's this group of kids I sit with a lunch and stuff, but I don't really consider them true friends. I can't really have a serious talk with them.

[Ryhanna]

Yes, I do. I mean, it's all jokes, never a serious conversation or anything.

I remember I felt like this when I participated in the public schooling system. I had friends and stuff, we hung out a bit, but there was never anyone I could truly bond with to the point where I could talk about some more emotional things with them. I think part of it is simply security, teenagers are going through an already emotionally insecure stage of their life, adding extra things onto that from another person entirely, even a friend, can simply cause them to feel uncomfortable, so they shy way, some more harshly than others.

It's a reason why I enjoy this site. People are more open here partially from the anonymity of it. A lot wouldn't admit it, but a good deal of people are a lot more open here both with their own issues as well as offering comfort and advice to others.

My suggestion is to simply wait and see if you come across anyone you can bond with on a more personal level. If it happens, it happens and that's awesome. It's probably not a good idea to count on that during your teenage years, however.

[Nelson]

Yeah i get this feeling all the time :(

[Marcie]

Yeah I have felt like that, in fact, I feel like that right now..

[Scarface]

Yeah i had a situation were i had a lot of friends and a few of them turned around and stabbed me in the back and tried to get all of my other friends to hate me. Most of them didn't believe them which really shows i still have a crew that has my back.

[Jenna.]

Wow I know EXACTLY what you mean. I hate it. I have friends, but honestly there's only one or two people who I consider my true true friends who I know could carry a secret of mine to the grave. The first is my boyfriend. I've known him forever and he hasn't ONCE broken my trust. He's more like my best friend than anything. It's nice cause since he's a guy, he's super easy to talk to cause he doesn't get caught up in girl drama. The second is this girl I've known my entire life. We go through periods where we're not SUPER close but she's still my oldest friend and that definitely makes a kind of trust that goes way back, so to speak. Sometimes I wish I had more "true" friends but at the same time, my grandfather once said that you'll be able to count the number of true friends on one hand and he's probably right.

[DrkZ90]

I know that feeling all too well... I know I can't trust my so-called "friends", they weren't there the only times I really needed someone by my side, they have stabbed me in the back more times that I can count, and they usually just use my like an object, so I dunno...

[Jess]

yes definitely :/

I do have friends but they aren't really my real/true friends....

[Joshrofl]

I felt like that until it got warm enough to skateboard, Now I'm actually a lot happier then i was like about three weeks ago.

[TheFame]

I did..until i found one of the coolest girls in the world :)

[Hyper]

Live through it and learn what a real friend is so that when you recognize them you keep them close in mind and at heart

I have and now I'd at best only call 2 people in this world ''friend'' - it's a word I don't toss out because it's hurt me so much before.

[MELL-AHH-KNEE]

i know exaclt what you are going through, last friday my friends pretty much all had a go at me all because i wasn't siting with them and then that nght i cut my arm 3 times and i cried for hours, then the sent me messages pretty much going off at me for nothing saying 'you're a dog act' and stuff like that and i just thought i wasn't going to be able to ever be the same. but i talked to someone about it and she help me though it, but its starting again because they were saying shit to me on the bus this morning, but that doesn't matter, just talk to someone about it, its okay to be upset, i was and now i have made new friend who have done nothing like what my old ones have, these new ones truely respect me for who i am. if you ever wanna talk about it i will do my best to help you.

[TheTrueKing]

u guys all seem kool and its like u guys are going through the same thing as me plz pm me whenever

[Hollywood]

yes i'm constantly ignored by everyone.

however, if they think they are too cool for you, then just ignore them. they dont like you, so you have a pretty good reason not to like them. i have about two people i call friends, and to be honest, thats all you need.

[MaliciousBunface]

I have 1 rly gd friend nd we arent supposed to keep secrets from each other...i dont think he is keepin up his side and i know he doesnt know half of me..im such a bad friend...but not as bad as him, he always has to be the centre of everythin and he has to be the coolest...and if we r such a gd friends..which i know we arent..whhy doesnt he care that im leaving

[karl]

Fortunately no. I have a really great best friend, and I'm lucky enough to have other real friends.

[drew.]

try not focusing on a population of friends and hang out with one or two..

[jaydawg729]

ever since i moved i made really good friends, but recently i feel they are liking me less and less idk why

[Zeh Crazy]

All the freaking time. Actually, I know I don't. They use me for stuff like money and computer and stuff. They're never there when I need them. They talk over me and I am always misunderstood or interrupted when talking.

[Ryhanna]

Most of my "friends" are actually just casual aquaintances. As is the case for most people, they just don't realise.

I think I've only got about 2 or three real friends. One of those people is family, and the other two are the friends who always care and are there when I need them.

[Titan]

You ever feel like you have 'friends' but nobody really ever to talk to or feel your true emotions with. I have 'friends' and i used to have a true friend then he changed and is ''2 cool''. How should i fix my problem?

I had the same problem as you but now my ex-best friend moved so I never got to talk to him about why he changed.


Edit: I just realized that I have no real friends at all! Ain't that sad? :( cry cry

[Chaziken]

I have a pretty good best friend but whenever he's talkin to his friends on the bus he keeps ignoring me

[janthem]

my friends r really good friends but i just always had trouble with trusting ppl for some reason

[May-]

I usually hang out with a lot of people, usually friends of friends, but I don't relate to any of them. I wanted someone I could go to and tell all my problems. I actually have one, she's way older than me, she's the vice-principal of my school and she's like a mother to me, but she doesn't know I cut, because she'd tell my family, but she knows I'm depressive and whenever she sees me crying she asks what's wrong and if I need to talk. Sometimes she doesn't have a lot of time for me and that's why I can't always count on her, but I'm fine with that, she's the closest friend I have.

[CaliKid24]

same thing happend to me and it sucked cuz my best friend was tellin everyone secrets about me, but just remember that if people dont want to be friends with u then ur better off without them.

[Apparitions]

Yes, I do. I mean, it's all jokes, never a serious conversation or anything.
I sometimes feel this as well. I don't remember the last time we had a serious convo.

[jaydawg729]

ever since i moved to asheville i havn't met my best/true friend. i'm the quiet type so even if i sit next to my good friends they still don't talk to me alot but like me enough to have me sit with them everyday at lunch

[Rmilance987]

well torday is rly hard to have some honest real friend... i have 3 friends from begining school we are like brothers ... yes i have other friends but that are just fake friends
