Why do people only bother with you when you have no problems?

You don't have friends. Get some friends.

You must be great to go for a drink with.

How does that answer the question? Exactly, it doesn't. So do one.

You're really rude. Perhaps it's because you have problems, but that's probably why people don't bother with you.

He started it. Telling me I have no friends when he doesn't even know me.

It's like this poem:

Well you did say that nobody bothers with you, suggesting you don't have friends.

Not having friends isn't necessarily an insult.

Maybe that wasn't intended to be rude but "/thread" is quite dismissive and rude if you ask me. Anyway, whatever. I just wanted to find out what makes some people run away from others with problems not discuss my friendship circle.

It's probably because people want to have a good time/feel good, and don't want to be dragged into your misery, especially if you become unpleasant when miserable.

Ask yourself: would you rather hang out with a really nice, happy, receptive person, or a really unpleasant, unhappy, unreceptive person. Why?

Of course we would all rather hang out with a happy person. But it's quite selfish of supposed true friends to walk away at the first sign of trouble and only make themselves known during the good times.

I've been on the receiving end of this rejection, so I know what it feels like.

People are selfish, mostly. There's your answer

Or walk away from you when you do? It hurts so much
