I am in college but I feel like my friends don't like me...Am I just being too sensitive or something? When I call them, sometimes they don't pick up the phone...And last night, I talked to someone and he said he was at home doing something. I told him to call me back when he's finished, but he never did. So I met up with another friend and went to go to the bar, and saw him there! What is up with that?

Step back a little and see if they call you or invite you to do stuff. If not you should still try to be their friend but make new friends as well in case they let you down.

Please. There are times your friends are busy or tired and just don't feel like calling you back. Possibly your one friend in particular had already made plans when you called. Maybe he just wanted to kind of get out by himself. Take a good look at yourself also. I don't know you but if you seem to "clingy" or "needy". this sometimes puts people off. Find yourself other people to hang out with, many things to do alone and expand the things you enjoy doing. You may find that you are the one getting the phone calls and that you don't have time to return them all. When you can enjoy time spent alone, your friends will enjoy spending more time with you. I know, sounds stupid.

Sometimes people don't want to be bothered because They are going through a lot themselves. They may not want to talk about it at the time. I think the best approach is to ask him upfront when you both are able to listen to each other and ask honest questions, I know what it is like to feel as though your friends don't like you. If you don't ask, it may eat you up inside, If he doesn't answer, give him some space. If he never responds, he may not want to be your friend. It probably is his loss. You should continue your other friendships and make new ones.
If he gives you an honest answer that he wants to be your friend, take him at his word. Hope everything goes well for you.

all part of the game, now what you should do is tell them you bought concert tickets and are taking them to see some show...tell them to meet you at the venue like half an hour before the show starts, it has to be an actual show, something not too expensive either...otherwise they'll get suspicious. anyways, tell them to meet you there (try and make it a 10-20 minute drive at least for them) and then don't show up or return their calls...when they ask just say that you had a family emergency. if you can, buy some tickets to show them, so they know it's legit...but say you want to hold on to them so they don't get lost...then return/scalp the tickets later for profit...oh haha, and if you can get them to chip in on the price of the tickets, you could even make a few bucks.

Maybe he changed his plans last minute.
It happens. It's happened to me and i've felt stupid about it.
I've told someone i was studying and at that moment I was and then all of a sudden i'd find myself at the bar ( oops.. yeah that did happen often in college) It wasn't planned and It wasn't a I'm going to call and invite people, it was more like a quick drink.
I wouldn't take it personally, just be careful so you don't get hurt because some people are just plain jerks too.

Sounds like you might need to get new friends OR change your past behaviors with your old ones.... Do you call your "friends" a lot and maybe pester them? If you do it might be time to "back off" and let them come to you... If you are a "needy" friend.... Someone that needs assurance/acceptance.... That sorta of thing... Think about your behavior and maybe if you aren't too sensitive have a chat with your friends to see what's going on.... Good luck

Hi, sometimes in life, we all need a break and be alone or want to be with someone that he or she likes to be with. So it is normal for your friends to be like that. I suggest that you just leave him alone and when time comes, it will tell. You have to be patient and not be impetuos in giving yourself such pressure that something is wrong with you.Youa re fine and just stay cool, act cool..and getto know more friends..build up your circle of friends.
Help others more and show your concern and love, and you will be like honey to bees..cheers and all the best, Pete

Some people find others annoying. You may just be that other. Find some new people to hang with and in no time, the old ones will stop thinking you're annoying. When they no longer feel you need them, they'll some running back.

Could be Body odor .
Or you just talk way too much .
I have friends do the same stuff to me all the times .
Just remember the things they do whenever they ask YOU for a favor and just simply remind them and just say no to them .
Your better off w/o these peeps anyway .
Good Luck and Party on .

You're in college now-- time is crazy and especially GUYS do not like to call- no matter who--don't make much of it, you should've went over to him and said hey, I called you, what's your phone not working? and see what he says....remember in college most guys want to be "just friends" and just "hookups" and there is a fine line between them--it's called a line of shots...so watch yourself, you don't want to lose your best guy friend for a one nighter....and if a conversation ever comes into play regarding your relationship, be ready to decide which way you want it to be...........good luck
