I want to know if it is normal that in your entire life you haven't had one true friend that really cares about you. My whole life I have tried so hard to fit in and be a good friend, but all I get is bad treatment by people. I have a wonderful husband, but he is the only person in this world who seems to love me. Even my parents don't care about me. I am no trying to have a pity party, I just wish I knew why. It seems like my entire life no one has really treated me right. Some people have friends that care about them and throw them birthday parties, care about their feelings, etc. I have never had this. I am jealous of people who have true friendship. I was very mistreated by my parents, who have told me they are going to move away to get away from their children, and that they should have never had any to begin with.
Does anyone out there feel this way, too?
Has anyone out there ever tried so hard to have friendship, but people just don't like you and you don't know why?
Do you think it's normal?

it's probably because your ugly, nobody gives a shit about ugly people like you
ignore flick. hes just an ass hole that should die. it sounds to me like your parents are very cruel and aren't worthy of the title. Further, I'm afraid we are just in such a day & age where friends are only there to laugh at people, and it's now acceptable to not care about a friends true feelings. so i would definitely say this is normal.
I have the same experience as you are before because I was self center without realize myself. Well now I have a lot of friends now. It not depend on how ugly you are. It depend on your heart and how you think for people are you. Always think about other before you think for yourself. That how I gain a good friend.
You will find today a lot of people dont know what real friendship is unless your right in their face they dont care about you. Dont worry about just enjoy life with your husband. You might find its your husband people dont like just a guess
WOW!!! I mean WOW!!! I never thought anybody else felt like this on the entire planet, but me. My whole life I got picked on and beat up in school and even in my neighborhood. Now I know I'm kind of weird, because i'm very shy, and really anti-social, but I mean damn people look at me and sometimes act like they wish they could rip my face off. Now don't get me wrong I did have a few friends throughout my childhood (some who i've found on myspace and become even greater friends with), but I can barely remember what it was like to be their friend when I was a child.

I grew up in a poor area, and I wondered if that had something to do with it, but nope I still got treated like shit when i moved in with my dad, everything I did somebody got an attitude. You should see me in college now, I shake if I have to publicly speak, and i'm very very very shy, but thankfully everyone is so nice. It could be because I was a teenager, but even my teachers treated me like shit, and I always heard rumors like I was pregnant, or I was the "whore of the trailor park down the street". I even remember screaming at this woman saying "I don't stick my chest out I have a C sized chest, you imbecile".

Most of my teenage years I spent indoors, because I hated all my neighbors. LOL. I had a few friends at school, but I wasn't really close to them.

Now my best friend is a 43 year old woman I work with, because everybody else just comes and goes, and hurts me. So fuck them, I say the hell with people, if they can't see you for who you really, then they need to go check themselves.

Throughout my years of being the center ridicule, I have come to the conclusion that it all boils down to J-E-A-L-O-U-S-Y. People tell me I look and act different, so what does that mean I have to look and act like everyone else to be accepted and surrounded by people who actually care about me? It's not worth it, atleast you are married, I would be happy with just a boyfriend.

I saw a shirt today that said "I'm not anti-social! Society is anti-me!" I'm buying it!!! it so suits me.
seems odd to me,everyone i end up meeting in life is mostly likely my friend i all ways found that to be wierd it may because am outgoing but who knows while maybe you should just relax with your husband till you get a friend i mean i think that as long as your husband caers about you thats all that really matters
am trying to be nicer on this website but i need to bring something up just for a sec
why do you keep telling everyone about your chest size its just getting wired but post whatever i guess O.k. While thats out of the way
LOL. when did i talk about that? i was just trying to explain something about what people would say about me, like how they said i stuck it out but i didn't it was just big. i'm not proud of big chest, it doesn't matter to me.
whow whow its done its done
All I know is, the best way to make good friends is not o get worried or anxious, and not to give a damn if you dont get through to them. Your definetly not alone and you ahev a good husband which is a lot more than many/most people have.
If you try too hard to make friends, it often makes it worse, and you have to reckon with the fact that b=people all have good and bad sides, and unfortunately most peoples bad side involves taking advantage of anyone who is really nice to them, and then not giving a damn about that person.
Yea I always get used by people, so whenever someone asks me for anything I usually get angry, even if it's just for a ride, or to buy them a pack of cigarettes, I never do. I feel bad later too.
Ouch that sucks, not many people really care much about me, my family and that's about it. I am anti-social most of the time, sometimes I don't mind big groups as long as not many people talk to me, like 2 or 3 is fine but if I'm in a big group and people constantly come up and talk to me then I absolutely hate it. I prefer being alone most of the time, I rarely actually want to go round a friends house, today I made up some excuse of why I had to leave my best friends house just so I could be alone. People don't generally mistreat me much, well not anymore when I was 11-12 that was a completely different story and those 2 years fucked me up a lot, I realized those 2 years were the roots of one of my major problems, which then caused me to go depressed at times and avoid talking to people as much as possible. Yeah I'm just wittering on right now.

I don't care much about anyone either though, my family don't care about my friends much and one girl and that's everyone I care about really. When I was 12 and under I cared about a lot of people, but now I don't.
I exactly know what you're going through.
: (
thats totally fucked and i would be ur freind if u needed one
i never had friends, and then i got pretty and now everyone wants to be my friend.
beware. people will betray you. its better to be alone with one good husband than to have friends who will stab you in the back at any moment.
Today the meaning of true friendship has completely vanished . If you share some of your feelings with someone emotionally they laugh at u and they never take u seriously . Sometimes it feels how dumb ass , stupid emotionless people have filled this world
don`t worry- focus on what and who is good in your life. A word of advice: I seem to often attract clingy people - its because I am very open and friendly and also because I empathize with lonliness (one of worst feelings in the world). But there have been a few such clingy people who I simply had to let go (not return calls). This is because they put great pressure on me- telling me I was their best friend when I hardly knew them...What I`m sayiing is- if you try too hard you scare people away because no one wants to be responsible for the feelings of a vulnerable person that they hardly know. You have to take your time and allow a bond with people to come about more naturally.

Good luck- take care and appreciate your husband`s love.
I am the exact opposite! I make friends extremely easy, almost effortlessly, but my boyfriend hates it. He says people like me "social butterflies" need to go out to be entertained and "why can't I find entertainment at home?" He has this whole conformity kick to him, but what I would do, if I were you.. is reflect on the outside how you're coming off to other people. Take a step outside the box and look in. Is your body language confident? Are your words clear and on a consistent tone? People are drawn to those who are confident. I think that's something to work on - also, appearance. Dress like you're confident, stand tall like you're confident... and the world will notice and be drawn to you like a moth to a flame.
oh man this is how it goes down
ok first when people talk about shit like this its usly the way they precive it. i thaought like this for 2 moths and i was misreble . i thought the world was against me but in the end it worked out good because it left a hollow shell to be refilled with knowledge and understanding. thats a diffrent story thow so back on point 2. its probly not very true you probly have friends and you said you had a spouse so there are people that care for you its just not the stereotypical way that they show in media
now to helpyou ill just tell you one thing play the game thats the whole thing all this be nice to be friends crap is bull you just have to damand respect and then that respect becomes whater you want it to be , fear, affection, hate , caring,anything you want go and live it
omfg, i rly feel the same xO
