    I feel sometimes that people use me. For example, tonight, I had people over and once we got into town, they abandoned me. That was ok but they said that they would give me a shout when they left, no such luck. I eneded walking home on my own. I suppose what I am trying to say is, how do I know if they are using me? What do I do if they are?

    If every phone call is with regards something they want, and there seldom seems to be any thought put in with regards to you, your feelings and how it affects you, then yes, you are being used. If you are left feeling as though you are worthless because of these people, it is not that they are using you, but that they do not care enough about you to see you happy.

    If you want to get through life as a healthy and happy individual, you need to show you are nobodies push over and that you are happy in yourself. You may lose your so called friends, but why have friends like them.

    For the next night out you try to call the shots, if they tell you what you are doing and not asking you, forget them!

    Don't allow anyone to make you feel like that!

    Although, its easy to see these things when you got looking for them, even if they dont exist. Paranoia can really mess you up.

    However, if you're not happy with your current frienships and dont feel you are getting anywhere with them, move on. No point in trying to make something out of it if its not looking likely to happen.
