Aha, dude. I think I see your problem.

You won't have any good friends, until you believe you already do. One thing you can NEVER do, is take your pals for granted. Never.

As soon as you start doubting their friendship, that's when things start sliding down. It's kinda like a low self confidence with chicks, except that this goes down to a deeper level.

Start believing that you're an excelent friend to someone. Just think, maybe one of those AFC's is dying to be your close mate. :p Just keep your eyes open, and keep your chin up.

yeah see Keeper...I have always been telling myself that...that you know, so and so really does like you and they are your boys and have your back.

but I dont know....it is just this gut feeling that...if I was no funny and cool and entertaining as I seem to be almost all the time....they would not care about me

Like if I was depressed and down, they would use it to an advantage...but I dont know...could just all be in my head..???

Anyway, I will continue being positive and loving everybody like I always do...you know why....because thats just what I do....or like that guy from the WWE says, Thats how I rolll!!!

Thanks fellos

I have very very very close friends about 5 or 6 of them...like brothers..adn it makes everyday great..


search and seek some real friends man!
Real friends are really hard to come by for everyone from college onwards. Most of my close friends are from my childhood. They are the only ones you can trust and know they don't want anything out of you. They were friends with you before the concept of "using" people was even comprehended.

I suggest participating in activities that are not social or career related to make real friends. Church, volunteer work, things of that nature... You tend to find a pretty good lot of people in those things.

Get in touch with your childhood friends. There's always a sense of kindred spirit with those you grew up with.

I can always relate better with friends i've had since I was a kid than friends i've made later on in life.

i don'k even hang out with the same friends I did 3 years ago.

I occasionally hang with friends i've known abt 2 years.

The people I go clubbing with who I don't see unless we are going clubbing, are some people I met from work, land havnt even known a year and guys i've meet through the people I met at work.

Some times i'll think that none of my friends actually want me there. But when an event is going on, i.e. Going out of town for the weekend, and theres only limited spaces in 2 cars, they'll always ask me, and tell me "i better come", when there is alot more people they could ask.

My childhood friends went their own way when we finished school at 16. My very best friend for like 8 years, moved away for university, when he comes back he don't even contact me, i guess we grew apart as friends. Another close friend moved away, but still keeps in contact with me, to go hang out when hes back in town.

My friends I grew up with from when i was born, i see some around and i say hi etc, but some I dont even talk to at all, when we walk past we pretend we havn't even seen each other, and some of these were my best friends, like brothers when i was growing up.

and a few other friends, got girlfriends, or we just stopped contacting each other. And a few others just decided to leave college, but keep in contact now and again.

It some times gets me down when I think, that I've only really had 1 real friend all my life, and we hardly keep in contact any more. Now my only real friend is my uncle whos 10 years older than me, but we like brothers.

Hey Pvssy.
The thing about friends are, they need maintenance. You dont give them attention, you lose them as friends. Personally I think a man needs only one good friend (not your dog...) A friend who will come and pick you up 4 am when your car broke down...if you know what im getting at. So, instead of concentrating on being a best friend with everyone, get to know a guy with the same interests as you (not just woman...) Get to know the guy, and show him you got his back. And naturally he will have yours.

Keep it cool P.E.(Even Alpha males need help sometimes. Cause thats why were here on earth, to help each other out.)
Good luck.:woo:
