How do you know if they're really your friend?

I felt alone whenever I walked home while watching others with someone, but then I managed to meet someone who joined me and let me join their circle. Been two years since that day, I start to question my friendship with them. Even when we walk together, I feel alone. During times of conversation, suddenly everything feels silent whenever I'm around. They're always together, but never bother to find me. Whenever I'm not myself, they never asked if I'm alright. I don't feel like a friend, I just feel like someone who just so happens to tag along. Can someone please tell me how I could really know if they're someone I should keep in my life? I'm scared to lose them, but I don't want to keep hurting myself like this.

Well after 2 years I think their actions speak louder than words. You're still not feeling comfortable and even alone and that's your gut telling you, you need to find a better friend (s).

my thoughts are
just be a friend without asking yourself questions like: Do they care?
if it bothers you a lot
make new friends

Perhaps ask them if they would like do an activity with you.

@Iwillwait Really one of things I'd love to do with friends! I'm not good with words, so I'm more of hobbies and such. But the problem is the activities I do don't match with theirs, they all like the trendy stuff like Tiktok dances, while I want to do activities like scrabble or exploring the museum. But whenever I ask them if they want to, they'd decline by saying "I'm not good with that" or " I don't get it", which sometimes I can fully understand but it just makes me feel lonely how I can't yap about the most random things in life to someone who'd actually listen and do random sht with me :'D But I'm still thanking for your advice and I'll be sure to try it <33

Lend them money, see if they stick around and pay you back!
