I Want Friends Who Are Actually Friends

I don't really have a circle of friends. I have 2 but I hardly talk or see them anymore. I have family but they are emotionally unsupportive. I had 2 people I could really go to to vent but we don't talk anymore. I've experienced so much betrayal and I'm only 25. Literally by family and by the person I thought would never betray me. I wish I had friends who were there. I remember seeing stories of people who said they wanted to have friends. I never understood why. After feeling empty and being betrayed by the 2 people who showed me what if felt like to have a real friend and someone who really cared, I do now

Well man being betrayed by people who you thought were friends really gotta hurt bradda, best advice what i can give you is explore the world. Your only 25 you still have so much 2 see and experience, tryna go 2 clubs or try 2 meet people that fit your interests. After that im sure youll have plenty of mates in no time bro. Gl

I know what you mean, I have never had to face betrayal however in my case I never allowed people close enough to get to know them and maybe share a friendship. Some days I am okay with this but other days I feel like everyone should have a close friend or two.

@WiseGirl: why don't you allow people to get close to you? Are you afraid they might betray you or let you down someday?

@Thefightingangel: Yes I would rather deprive myself of a friendship than let my guard down only to be hurt. Yes I am the one thats losing out but it's not a chance I am willing to take.

@WiseGirl: I definitely understand that fear because it does hurt a lot when someone close betrays you but someday hopefully we will all meet that one person who will always be there for us. I hope you meet someone someday who you feel you can trust and be friends with.
