I’m a 21 year old girl
People tend to like me, or at least they tend to not dislike me. I’m never the person that people tend to bond over *****ing about if you know what I mean.
However, I really really struggle to form meaningful friendships and relationships and have all my life. Last year my uni flat and I all got on amazingly, however no one picked to live with me - I was good friend with them all, they all just had a ‘special’ friendship with someone else. This year I’m in a flat of 5 people I vaguely knew. Three of them have gotten really close, and those 3 hate another one of the girls. No one really dislikes me but I just never manage to get into that ‘close’ bond that people form. So, what I know will happen is next year the 3 will pick to live together and I’ll be stuck again.
Every friendship I’ve ever had has been like this.
It’s also in relationships. Or lack of. I wouldn’t say I’m ‘very attractive’ but I’m decent enough looking that sex is very very easy for me to find (altho I don’t have it much) but like I can easily kiss boys in clubs for example.
Anyway, I’ve never ever ever got beyond a one night stand with a guy (I’ve only had 2). Never been asked out for a drink, or a date or ever been in a relationship. I’ve never even been in a talking stage.
This one really gets me down.
I’ve just started a new job at the same time as another girl and I can already see her starting to form bonds with people that I just can’t form.
I still see my uni friends regularly and we all still are friends but I find it so incredibly hard when they all go back to their lovely flats and have fun and laughs and watch movies and eat their dinner together and I spend every waking moment that I’m in my flat alone.
It’s so painful, and I’m old enough now that I feel this might never change for me. I even have a brother who I have zero relationship with. No one EVER wants to be close to me
What can I do 🥺 it’s heartbreaking to have never been enough for anyone
