Why is it so hard to have friends who don't just abandon you the minute you have a rough time?

There have been many times when I have looked around me and thought, wow, I have a really good support network....but it's not real. People are all talk it seems.

Maybe I just don't know what people want 🤷‍♀️ Just the good bits, it seems.

Do you mean on SW or in real life?

If real life, sadly I know what you mean! Though honestly as a defensive mechanism, I've stopped trusting people and very few do I get close to.

Though, while it protects me, I'm not sure it's best as I'm not finding that I need to reach out more and put more effect into going outside my comfort zones to meet people.
