    I cut friends out and then I have no one so this is what I'm stuck with. I don't understand how everyone else always get these great groups of friends that they can talk to and hang out with and I have about 2 people. With everyone else it's up to me to contact them and even then there's no guarantee of a response, there's no guarantee of any effort. It's very clear that people are not interested in being my friend

    It isn't easy. I have gone years without having any close friends. It takes work, lots of work, but you have to be confident. You are not going to make new friends if you are still friends with people that make you feel like sh!t are you?

    I have two really close friends, they know everything about me. And maybe a further three friends and then acquaintances. Not many. But perfect for me. You will get it, it takes time but you will get there.

    On another note. This sums up my view right now

    Funny thing, I thought I had done that. Then it turns out that the new group are just the same as the old. It has to be me that's the prob

    Men. Just when you think you have them all figured out then BOOM! They do something to leave you baffled again... :(

    I used to think that. I went to counselling which helped a lot. But I still have relapses. I found most of my friends separate from each other so we were never a group. One of my best friends is 40, I am 23. It just goes to show that friends can come from the most randomest of backgrounds.

    Finding a friend is harder then finding a lover. It sometimes takes years of being friendly with someone before you become close friends. Stick with it! xxx

    This last year I've become good friends again with my best friend from growing up, we stopped talking in our teens (different schools and paths) but just found our way back to each other. Hoping to go visit her this summer.
    I also last week broke off contact to my best mate of the last 11 years. I just couldn't handle the crap friend she had become anymore.


    Friends come and go imo, but the great ones take time and always come back to you. Don't be dishearted MCR, you always have here to talk in the meantime xxx

    I always feel so down around exam time, the pressure gets to me. Almost can't cope with it.

    Get yourself out doing something. Take a break and have a laugh with friends or whatever. I played tennis yesterday and went for a cycle today. Exam stress and other stuff going on has my head wrecked but I find doing some exercise and taking a break, having a laugh with mates definitely helps.

    It's shít at the moment but you will find some decent friends. What do you enjoy doing? Get yourself out there and mingle. These people are not worth getting upset over. Sound like assholes. :cool:

    Tomorrow's (Today's) FRIDAY! WHOOP! I still have to study but its nearly Saturday WHOOP! :D

    MCR we're always here <3 (like seriously) I dont think anone here would want anyone else to be sad. I think our little sisterhood(and Krudler) is awesome.


    I saw the boy in his old navy uniform today.....phfoar!!!

    Don't put yourself down. Head along to a TLL meet up, that's what I need to do soon. I'm falling behind here :rolleyes:

    Out of curiosity what was the event your mother/brother are going to? We might get a group to go with you yet :D

    I just did something empowering and I'm not sure how I'm going to feel tomorrow about it :):eek::D

    Woo Friday! Today I will spend 8 hours in a jeep and then I think I'll require some tea and biscuits afterwards. Who's making the tea? :)

    Woke up at 6.30. Why does this happen every day I'm off work :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,175 ✭✭✭angeldelight


    Had a terrible nights sleep. On the plus side it meant I was up when himself was going to work and I got to see him looking all handsome in his new suit, but he's gone now and I'm still awake :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 678 ✭✭✭ihsb


    5 hours in bed. Maybe 3 of sleep. My day off today and my brain won't shut off and my eyes are dry. :(

    Morning loungers. :)

    Looking forward to volunteering in the LSPCA shop today. Should be good. I'm a bit nervous though. :o

    Thanks for the posts guys. I suppose I just thought I'd gotten away from this. All I want is for people to just like me and that seems like an impossible concept


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,513 ✭✭✭✭Lucyfur


    Good Luck Jane, it'll do you good to be out and about:D

    My son just brought me tea in bed, I love days off:D:D Such an awesome little dude I have:D:D

    Good on you, good luck... Try not to bring all the animals home:).

    Finished college today! :D

    Will be soooo relieved when I have my last assignment handed up. I loved the course all year but the tutors have been hard work lately and I'll be glad to see the back of some of them! Will miss everyone in the course though. We had a great laugh together and I hope we stay in contact and meet up every so often.

    Just the small matter of exams next week then...

    Doooooo!!! I have a friend that works in the rescue shop here...she regularly brings home animals:D

    I'd find it really hard to do that kind of work. I can't even watch animal rescue:o The 2 animals I have are rescues...I'd love loads more.

    Unfortunately it's only a charity shop, they sell second hand books, clothes etc and all the money goes toward caring for the animals that the LSPCA have. I'm in from 10 until 1.30pm so hopefully it goes well. :)

    Naked photoshoot!?:confused:

    Today, I'm going to do my tefl course, wash up, change my bed covers, visit my granny and buy potting soil so I can move some of the sprouts into a bigger pot.

    I've a feeling I'm being hopeful, going to make myself a cup of tea first.

    Cats are also loving the sun.

    Would that not have been a tear-the-suit-off-him-and-drag-him-back-to-bed moment then? ;)

    I need to stop reading and watching so much SciFi/Fantasy stuff. Last night my dream had bits from:

    BattleStar Galactica
    Harry Potter
    Game of Thrones
    World of Warcraft
    Star Wars
    and a lovely arts and crafts jewellery booth at a fair for good measure.

    I really wish I could record my dreams.

    That sounds like my kind of dream- deadly! The OH says I talk in my sleep most nights. A few weeks ago I was speaking in star wars quotes :o
