Do you ever feel likes it hard to connect with people?
I feel like deep down I’m a people person that likes making new friends. But on the outside I just feel numb. Like I want to take to time to reach out to people and be friendly but I just... don’t
. I mean I have friends but it feels like I haven’t made any new ones in a while ya know.

Don't. You'll end up running into a mob of "know it alls" who attempt to crush all your current relationships (((because they're not good enough for you))) and expect you to meet new friends in a jiffy! Oh, the new friends have to meet certain requirements, or they'll be thrown out, too. Good luck meeting people who an entire group of smartasses think they can judge better than you. Hell...good luck dealing with any know-it-all fools who think they know what's best for you. Most of them don't even know themselves, but they'll claim you're defective and projecting constantly. They'll never understand your motives. They'll never understand you. But, they know what's best for you! They'll flip everything around and make it about you. They can't fathom the idea you might actually analyze better than them. They will probably treat you as if you're stupid.
@perceptivei Yeah I can see your point I appreciate advice but you still got be able to tell the difference between some who actually want a top five good advice and help (such as yourself) and someone who just likes hearing themselves talk
@RedRogue In the end, it doesn't matter what we think about ourselves. We might know something is true all day long, but if others don't believe it, they'll think you're nuts.
@RedRogue Opinions matter. Reputation matters. Friends matter. Love matters. Who ever tells you different isn't very experienced. Life isn't worth living if you don't have what matters to you most. In the end, most people don't want to be completely alone.
@perceptivei I agree to a certain degree about opinion, however, for sure reputation/credibility, friends (true/real)not fake only with you in good times matters, both love and respect matter.
