I thought that family was forever. I have found that is only true as long as you are doing just what they want you to do. Friends, no such thing. People pretend they are your friends only as long as they can get something from you. LOVE, is another subject/problem. People will say they love you until you have given them everything, including your entire self. Heart, soul, mind and body. I once was a strong women, up until this last year and a half. Now all I think about is how stupid I am for believing that love and friendship existed & that I would rather be dead than to live the remainder of my life in a cold, heartless world where NO ONE gives a damn about anyone but themselves.

Honey, you have to realize that your perception of these relatiomnsips and people is colored by some bad experiences. But all these people (family members, too) do love you, or you wouldn't have had them in your life in the first place.
You didn';t have these friedns before you met them, so the easiest answer--and I don't mean to be glib here--is to go out and find some new friends.
Remember, everyone loves a winner, so the more successful you are; the more popular you are; the more people will flock to you and want to be with you.
I would be your friend, just from the few words you ahave written,if you would let me...

I once felt like you I think back to 5 years ago and the people and the friends I had, I am only in contact with 5 of them out of problem 50 people I knew. The way I look at it is life is like a train at different stations you pick up and drop off people they get on for may be 2 stations and then their ride is over, and you just hope at the end of the ride their are still a few people left!!
You are still a strong woman!! Just make sure the people you rely on can be relayed on then you will never get hurt!!!

Hey, if you really have it so hard, why are you even complaining to strangers?? Here's how you get friends/family/loved ones: YOU GIVE OF YOURSELF WITHOUT EXPECTING ANYTHING IN RETURN!!!!
Of course, if you're wallowing around in self-pity, that would be hard for you to do. You should count you blessings or get off the ride and stop whining and sucking the life out of everyone around you. GROW UP!! Your life is what YOU make it. If you want to die....well that's up to you. Who is going to care anyway? You need to take a walk to a cancer ward and see people who really have literally nothing; they can't even wipe their own butts! Take a walk into a nursing home or a rehab unit and look at someone who has had a stroke, or can't even move a finger. Hell...I'm tired of writing this cause you're a selfish soul....and a pitiful one. I'm wasting my time. Take a walk in the traffic if life is so hard and stop using our oxygen!

Well my advice is to reevaluate the situation there are some mess up people out there but then again there are a lot of good ones. This time in your life is going to be really hard to get through but i know from experience that it is possible go out meet new people smile and be happy good people will gravitate toward you trust me

Something, or someone hurt you, but you can't let that jade the way that you look at the world, you still sound like a strong woman, and you have yourself to carry you through hard times. Move on, try to forgive and forget, better yourself, this will better your life. Remember, if it doesn't kill us, it makes us stronger, let the unpleasant feelings you are experiencing make you a stronger person.

I do think it's true that many people like only themselves, it's sort of taught in our society (like the 'what's in it for me?' policy). There are people out there that are more concerned with helping other people and so you just need to go out there and find them.
As far as friends, I would encourage you to go out and find those you have similar interests with and find other genuine (or not FAKE) people.
I would also encourage you to go to church if you don't yet. You are a precious child of our Savior, and you deserve to be loved and find happiness in this life!

Talk to a therapist and get help. Give life and this world another chance. Don't give up. Pray to God and He will deliver you through this hard time. If u don't believe in him than do what it is u feel is needed.

take care of your self and stop worrying about who's got your back. after you are more sure of yourself, true friends just start to reveal themselves. I've been there before... trust me this works :o)
