I copied the post from Blind. Having friends or not doesn't bother me anymore. 

Looks like it bothered you a lot once and is still bothering you..

I have no real close friendships. Sure, I know people. At some points I thought we were friends. But honestly, none of those friendships survived. I do my best to reach out and keep in touch, get closer, hang out.. but it's not mutual, sometimes I don't even get a text back, so at some point I cross those people off. Or they'd have an event/trip and not invite me, so I obviously get offended and distance myself. It feels like I'm the only one who has no friends. Who's left out. Who's not liked. Who's misunderstood.

Am I the only one? Did anyone find good coping mechanism to not let the rejection and loneliness get to you?

For the record, I do have close relationships with my family and partner. Friendships never last though for more than a couple of years till they take a turn as described, where I feel like I need to walk away because there isn't a real friendship.

Anna I feel the same. Been thinking about this for a month.
