Would you consider it normal to lose 8 very close friends in the space of a year? Two of which in the space of a fucking day?
I'm hurting so much right now that i find it hard to breathe. I don't even get what I do wrong, but it has to be me right? How else would it have happened so many times in such little time?
I'm not even ranting but this feels such a relief, I need to escape from the world for a while but with no where to do that I'm screwed.
The one close friend i have left I don't want to gather reassurance from because I am so terrified of driving him away. Ergh, i'm so worked up that I've been physically sick. I'm so fucking confused.


ghiotyjyuh.

How did you drive them away? Did your neediness get to them? Whats repulsive about you?

That's the thing. I don't know what I did wrong to lose half of them. Otherwise I wouldn't be so upset about it all.

call them, write em an e-mail, ask them, Why arent you talking to me?

I have and they dont reply or come up with a load of shit. One isn't even answering her phone. The other is making complete cheap shots at me for no reason. &Yer. I give up. I think I'm going to sleep until I feel better.

Last time I heard such a senario was when this girl made a sex tape with another girl but the tape got lost in the post and a couple of frat boys got hold of it and showed EVERYONE. All her friends and family disowned her.......

You didnt make a sex tape did you?

If not, then fuck 'em. Get some new friends. They're obviously missing out if they have no legit reason.

Ha, that would be rather interesting. Just to hear their responce.

No I have not made a sex tape, but brilliant story.

New friends, that will be easier when I go to college in september.

I lost a bunch of friends this year too. But i've realised I'm better off without them, thinking back on it, they were never real friends to me, they're incredibly pretentious & i felt like I couldn't be myself about them.

Perhaps you're better off without these people too. You should take your chance now & go out & make new, better friends.

Hope you feel better soon

the two of you
*hugs*

and college always brings new opportunities...

It does, I've made a bunch of new friends in my sixth form, i'd always gone to school with them but we'd never got close. I'm glad we have now.

College has made me drift apart from a best friend that i've been 'joined at the hip with' since i was elleven.

but i know that its just a phase...

i do sympathise with you though. i've really missed her.

i know how you feel

i have lost threee very good friends in the past 2 years
all of them have totoally stabbed me int he back
i feel cursed
i blame myself alot even thuogh all the evidence blatantly says i shouldn't blame myself, but i can't help feeling i have done somehting wrong for this to happen to me

now im really fucking lonely
cursed i tell thee!

8 close friends, maybe you weren't that close to them no offense. I get personnal with most of my friends, but I only consider 3 as "close friends"..ive lost two very close friends actually in the past year...that's when I realized maybe I considered our relationship more special than it really was for them. no stabbing in the back or anything...one of them we just grew apart from living in different cities for about 3 yrs now, we used to be very close before..I'm not too sure what happened. the other one got a bf and was just never available, so I stopped calling too..she never called me back.

sometimes friends drift apart. if they are not responding to your questions, you just have to let go. i'm one of those people who just stop talking to the other one, and the other person also stops talking to me. inside i'm sure we both realize that we think differently and live life differently. i believe you are your own best friend, and you will always find new close friends along the way that relate to the way you are now.

Are the eight friends you've lost friends with each other? Because you could have actually only lost one friend who then just bitched about you so much to the others that she drove them away from you.

i don't have any friends really, and really never have. except clubbing girls. So i don't feel bad for you, it's normal to feel greif, but don't whine.

you are obviously the type of person that people like to have so many close friends that i wouldn't worry about it being hard to make them again

what are the bullshit reasons? and why are they bullshit, do you just not agree or do they just deflect the question? Are they trying to spare your feelings bc you can't handle the 'real' answer? If your really interested in looking at your behaviors i'd suggest going to therapy, since that is the point of therapy taking a look at your behaviors and making systematic changes to not repeat the same behaviors.

maybe you pick the wrong 'friends'
