      @@ntmn8444 this was something that is really helping me too. Instead of scrolling mindlessly through photos and videos of people living their life, my old friends living their lives, I only check in 1-2 times a week. It gets pretty lonely at first because it’s a distraction coping mechanism. But you find yourself actually doing things to fill that void. And you don’t feel like you’re missing out on these moments you see on your screen because they’re not there in your world. Eventually you find your way outside, at a bar, at an event, you meet people and you have real experiences that aren’t filtered through photos and aren’t being filmed on Snapchat.

So just like you I’ve spent so much time alone and gotten so used to just being alone and now it feels like I don’t even know where to start when I try to make new friends. But just remember that there are tons of others who feel exactly like we do and sometimes you’ll run into someone who if you end up talking to them a little, you both might realize you feel the same way and would love to have a friend to share experiences with and just do fun things together with

      🙏❤ When somebody comes with snarck comment or they say or do one or two things that is uncalled for, know that that's a frenemy. I just moved out of the way and let her fly past and crash. Let your frenemies go before they drag you into their negativity and they distract you from being friends with bossbabes that love you; you love them; you love each other's families; you evolve; you grow together; she's the wind in your back; she's the sun ahead of you. And she really means the best for you. You have to get rid of a lot of people in your life. They're distractions that will distract you from your destiny, your ultimate goal. Throw them out. Don't respond to their accusations. They're not worthy of your golden time.
      You build your brands; your careers, (your husband, your children). Be happy. Evolve to be this positive wonderful person. Don't let negativity in your life. I have seen it a couple of times. It happened to me. There are no regrets; only experiences. -Fumi Desalu Vold

      Septimus Signus No friends mean zero. I had a friend of 15 years, 1 friend and that was enough for me. Now they're gone, ghosted me when I wasn't there for her once. Now I have no friends 0. It sucks, it hurts. A long time friend gone because I decided to have a good time with someone else (granted they turned out to be a jerk) no communication, not bothering to tell me why she ghosted which led me to believe either she was angry I didn't tell her I was out with another person or simply wasn't there for her. I go to my local game stop or retro game store just to have some human interaction. Can't really hang out with anyone so I go to places for minimal interaction around those with the same interest. Sorry for dumb story but people saying they don't have friends but technically do don't get it. How lonely and sad it is. How you go out to certain places just for some interaction with a person, even if it's fleeting and for minutes.

When she left, i decided to go to the movies because i was really happy and didn't want to go home. At the movie theater the realization that i really have noone hit me.

      I can relate 111% .. I've had serious health problems and couldn't work, barely leave the house for a decade.. Suddenly through family connections combined with miracles I got a job behind the scenes of the f'ing movie industry (?!?!) :O I remember the first evening after work, I was in the heavens of joy and after being on the phone with my parents sharing the first day of this amazing adventure, this struck me: What's joy and happiness if there's no one to share it with? Falling from the heavens with this realisation gave me even more depression than I had before.. I'm living in a place with a few thousand people, so getting new friends after becoming the villages black sheep because of rumours and speculation doesn't make app's and social media (which I don't have anyways) an option. But as my parents have moved out of this depressing village I'm finally out of reasons to stay here myself so I'll be relocating in the very near future.

      You don't know the basis of those friendships. You may find that they are making a similar amount of money or share the same ideologies, ideologies you may not be comfortable with. I remember reading an article about life and the author said life is like you being a fish in a fish bowl. You can see what is happening from where you are, but the water and the bowl distort your view of what is really happening outside that bowl. Might I add that you, as a "fish" are much safer in your bowl with water, than if you were to try and escape the bowl and go after what you see as you would die. Let them enter your bowl, let them find you in your element and then you will be fulfilled.

It hurts feeling like if I didn't hit people up I'd be utterly and completely alone. I feel like I'm just forcing myself onto others, and they just respond to be polite.

      my friends were free yesterday when we decided to go watch a movie together. when one of them called and said she had some urgent chores to do. so they all rescheduled to the next day, when i had plans.
      they were ready to change their schedules and go through extra hassle to include her but didn't even care when i was left out.
      so i went and watched the movie alone.
      and they would all go together today.🙂

    I cried the whole time watching this. I have never been true to myself, I always envy people with a lot of friends and I wish I were in their shoes sometimes. Sure I have few friends online but I can't connect with them in everyday life/real life. I always thought that I'm better off being a loner, but I can't even call myself a loner because I'm desperate of having friends inrl. I'm always taken for granted whenever I hang out with my classmates; all of them always seem to enjoy each other's company but except me, they would leave me out all the time.

    The problem is when I try to make friends with someone, they don't really care to put any effort back into making a friendship. Ppl act like they wanna be friends, but when I ask someone if they'd wanna hangout or go do something, I always get rejected. Or blown off. Like I don't matter. And clearly I don't. Idk if there's just so many ppl that are just scared of making new friendships, or if there's something legitimately wrong with me that ppl don't like. Idk. It feels like ppl are just fake with me no matter how genuine I am with them. I have literally no family either. No siblings, aunts/uncles, cousins. Literally no one cares about me. No matter how much I truly do care about myself...no one outside of me, cares at all. Which makes me feel worthless. Although I know I'm not, not having anyone in my life makes me feel that way. Idk how not to feel like this. Not even a therapist can help me. I've tried. I get nowhere. With no answers. I'm deprived of love. I don't even know what "love" is anymore. Relationship, or platonic. Love=fear for me at this point in my life. I'm 38. 😔

    yesterday our exams ended and everyone was out with their friends. I was at home just scrolling through my phone. No one texted me. The only one whom I call my best friend was also hanging out with her best friend. It just hurts so much. My parents are abusive. My mother just reminds me everyday that I’m not worth anything. “ the day you were born was the worst day of my life” these are the words that my mother told me on my birthday. I don’t even celebrate my birthday. It’s just so exhausting to live like this everyday.

    Friends are overrated. I'm 46 and 'friends' have come and gone in that time. When i look back, those 'friends' ultimately turned out to be anything but. Anyone who truly has genuine loyal friends is blessed and I'm happy for them but imo that's a rarity in life for most people. Best to just accept that people come and go in life and not to get too attached. Learn to be your own best friend. You don't NEED friends.

And she really means the best for you. You have to get rid of a lot of people in your life. They're distractions that will distract you from your destiny, your ultimate goal. Throw them out. Don't respond to their accusations. They're not worthy of your golden time.

    • @thebestmarcela
      @thebestmarcela 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@name-eo1lv I totally get that. And it's complex because sometimes I think"'I'll try to spend time with them and get to know them and see if I like them, because maybe I'm just not used to having friends anymore", but then it feels like you're just using the others, or you're not being genuine/sincere in the friendship, while the other person is.
      I don't feel that much while I'm with friends but it's like that regarding dates. I try to like people who already like me and are nice to me, but I just can't make myself like them back and it feels really fake and that I'm just fooling the other person.
      Anyway, I think the first step is just to realize we do that, right? Then we can begin to think why we do it.

    • @kai7437
      @kai7437 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Yeah. The rare times I've spent time either in a group or one-on-one with new people I spend much of it wondering why I'm there and just going through the motions. I've never had close friends (except for one lifelong online friendship). I tend to feel disinterested and bored with most people.
      I make a deliberate effort to engage in the hope that maybe if I spend enough time with them and get to know them then I might start to feel some kind of interest or bond but I don't know. Normally people don't follow-through to give me a chance (I guess just not interested).
      I spent about 7 years without friends because I thought I should be clear on what I want before wasting someone else's time...but I didn't figure it out so then I spent some years trying to meet new people and it just felt pointless like a waste of both of our time.
      I'd love to be able to share a sense of humour with some people, enjoy similar activities, be able to trust they are reliable and will follow through on a meet or at least communicate if something urgent came up and they couldn't make it and reschedule. People don't seem to do that and I don't know why.
      I've wondered if I'm boring, or too quiet or too self-deprecating, or something else. When I pretend to be happy and energetic and smiley and positive and do things to make people laugh people react well but they still don't want to hang out with me outside of the context of whichever setting I met them.
      I never receive feedback on why not though, even if I ask for it. So I end up exactly where I began with no direction if there's something about me that I need to work on or if it was nothing to do with me. The consistent pattern seems to suggest its something about me though. People tell me I'm "nice" and "smart" and "generous" and so on...so why don't more people want to spend time with me? I've pretty much given up. No partner. No family. One close online-only friend that lives on the other side of the world to me. A few unavailable fringe friends that contact me or meet about once a year if I travel out to see them. Only one other isolate ever visits me and we don't get along great but neither of us has anyone else.
      Sometimes I spend money on all kinds of stuff that I think future friends will enjoy or use or appreciate, but it ends up in storage for years waiting for me to have people in my life to share with. I know its illogical because I don't even know what these future people will even like or what their allergies or preferences or limitations are. I think sometimes I just have to pretend I have friends to share with to keep my sanity.

      Focus on building yourself to become an amazing person, get into hobbies have a passion build value in yourself to build up your confidence and when you realise your worth and believe in your worth you will never feel like you're boring because you know what you like.
      Don't try to fit in, rise above the people around you and standout. If you believe you're boring from the perspective of majority if people. Keep pushing to stand out to where the minority notices you. If you yourself believe you are boring. Look inside yourself and find out what you want to become/ achieve to feel happy.

      You don't need a passion, interesting hobbies or an amazing job to have friends! Sometimes it's enough to enjoy the little things, talk about current events etc
      Don't be scared to hang out with people or to initiate conversation with someone you think is cool! I was like that for a while, I overthought everything, but everytime I pushed through the fear I felt better afterwards even if the person didn't end up having a relationship/friendship with me.

    People enter your life in phases. Relationships are temporary. There is nothing wrong with not having friends unless you THINK there is something wrong with it. I realized a long time ago that as long as I act as my own best friend I dont need to rely on the coming and going of others for happiness. We are never alone as we are all connected to the other humans around us regardless if we can feel that or not in the present, to think otherwise is the illusion of our own egos. The path is to attempt to move past this illusion. We are not always aligned perfectly with others, and who said we should be? Depression, mental illness, lonliness etc.... it is all a direct opportunity to learn more about the inner workings of you. Scary? Hell yes, but This is a more fruitful approach to "happiness" than friends are able to provide. My opinion after 40 years of having "no friends" and years of depression..... seeking pleasure only gives me pain. So I learned to move with the waves.
    Much love to all going through it! You are never alone 💮

    Im a mid 30s single dad with full custody of my 5 year old. I recently realized I have no friends. I grew up in the city and the opiod epidemic destroyed my social circle.
    The friends i do reach out to want nothing to do with me except for one who it feels like just takes pity on me.
    He even told me recently he was at one of our friends houses that legit was my best friend in high schools. His apartment is like the hangout spot for a bunch of people we went to high school with that are still in a big friend group.
    He told me there was like 5 of them watching sports there and he mentioned inviting me over and the guy was like “nope don’t invite him”.
    I don’t know what I did, im one of the nicest people you could ever meet. I run into people at the ground store and other places around town and they all tell me “im going to so and sos house tonight he invited a bunch of us over”
    I just feel like such a loser, my sons eventually gonna get older and ask why i have no friends and why we never get invited to cookouts or birthday parties or anything.
    The custody battle with his mom and her mental health problems has taken such a toll on my mental health and I dont ever talk about it because i know nobody cares, but now that I realized I have no friends and nobody likes me it took whatever little dignity I have left.
    Its so hard to try and make friends because i have my son 24/7. Like at work and the 1 or 2 social gatherings I get invited to a year, everyone talks about the vacation they just took or new bar they went to or sports events etc and i have nothing to add at all. His mom doesn’t work or contribute a dime so I don’t have any extra money to do anything.
    Its just pushed me into a shell, even at work a few months ago we were standing around talking in a group at lunch time shooting the shit and i trued being more outgoing and said something about my son.
    One of the guys whos like the “alpha” of the guys at work said “nobody gives a fuck about your son”. They all go out on Fridays after work and used to invite me, but for some reason once i got custody of my son they all turned their backs on me. People are just cruel.

      @@iliveinsideyourhouse3943 for me the friends I broke away from just weren't serious about school and life at the time. They didn't get into much trouble as such but I ended up being a top student at my school, playing for the first team hockey side and playing gigs and performing. To date I have the highest qualification in the group. Not saying my life is better than theirs, but you get to find yourself in solitude. Some of these friends now are doing better than me but still have issues that seem so trivial to me like desperately wanting to have the the hottest girlfriend, making more money than someone we went to school with and being overly cut up about things not going well for them in relationships that were just not good to begin with. I guess I've become stoic, but I definitely don't want to share in all that. I don't think like that. Gratitude is paramount for me and anyone that cannot embrace that first just puts me off.

    There is a thick line between friends and acquaintances. The day I failed 11th grade, I lost all my friends that I had known for 8 years. In college, I decided to make new friends, remodeled my personality, and the whole college has begun to recognize me for who I am. In spite of this, I experience a paradox in friendship. In the course of your relationship with them, you will grow close to them, and become attached, assuming they feel the same for you but in reality, they are close to their previous friends regardless of how much you helped them in their difficult times. They tend to prefer old friends to you. Those like me who have always been abandoned by family and friends have a difficult time coping with this situation.
    Now that I have moved to another country, I have observed and experienced a new level of mind games being played by my friends here. There is nothing more painful than trying to make cherished bonds and memories only to discover that everyone is secretly competing when there is no competition.

I know it's possible for everyone to make friends because I know everyone is a good person! I know you can do it! I haven't done it yet and I don't know if I ever will... But! If I give up now, I'm just guranteeing I won't make any friends! And I want to keep trying and I don't want to give up on anything ever! Or anyone. So... I know you can do it.

    Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Speaking from experience from someone with zero “ real friends “ meaning there is no one in my life who I see on a regular basis , there no one who I ever spend time with really or anything like that unfortunately. But listening to everything you had to say about this topic that a lot of us struggle with really helped me feel a little better. I think it’s important for someone in my situation to try their hardest to seek out any type of social situation where they can meet other and never be shy or anxious to approach someone introduce yourself , ask for their name , and then try to start a conversation by asking something about them. I think others are more accepting to someone approaching them when you are respectful and seem to be actually interested in talking to them and getting to know something about them or something they are interested in. I hope I can make some real friends soon.
