    This is relatable.

    But even without attachments I'll always wish some people all the best, I'm just not approachable and I'm almost always on my own.

    I don't have a single friend in real life for a long time. But I know that I am responsible for the fact that one of my old friendships does not last. I thought I am too unimportant for this guy, probably he didn't even know that I considered him my 'real friend' ... I reckoned that I was for him just one of many close acquaintances at best.

    I am really sorry, I know your situation already and it shows that often luck(or unfortunately misfortune) is very important too. Sometimes people breaking up friendship without any reason, even worse they stop having any contact with you. Imo friendship is after family the most holy relationship between people, it can crumbling since life can be painful but betraying a friend like this is one of the most honourless behavior which exists. I experienced the same thing, but don’t forget there is ilahi adalet(karma), everyone will get what they deserve. You too!

    We simply drifted away from each other after we went to different high schools. He was about the only person that I was on the same wavelength with, sometimes it appeared as if we were reading each other minds and we liked the same things. I don't feel like refreshing that contact though and when I was 16 years old (long time ago) I had already started to develop depressive symptoms so I became even more withdrawn than before. I deeply regret certain things not quite happening so far for me. As of late I am in the process of modifying myself through therapy in order to stop making the same mistakes in my life.

    Making friends has always been very difficult to me and it does not help that I was ghosted multiple times in the past.

    Depressions are a very, very bad problem. You can’t explain it to others, sometimes you don’t even have someone to pour your concerns out, and just because of some hapless coincidences your sadness reaches more and more another level. With my another account(Bender) i once gave you some advices, if they won’t help maybe a therapy could be a good solution for your concerns. You are not mentally ill(like many here for instance), you just have some misfortune which is gnawing on your mental well-beeing. I totally understand you.

    I have a ridiculous amount of acquaintances and some "friends" (not really close), but I only have 1 real friend as of now.

    Now in uni it seems I will make many essential friends, as I have come close to many people, but things will sort themselves into the future.

    But I myself have to stop being so nitpicky. I legit reject people on my own if I feel I'm not comfortable with them even in the slightest.

    Certain friendships are meant to last only for a while and we have to deal with it.

    Yup, for everything there is a season.

    Sometimes all you can do is move on, it can be painful, I know.

    I think it's harder making friends as you get older because it isn't facilitated, like friends you may have had since school.

    Now you have to go out and find them through shared interest or hobbie etc. It is definitely true that certain friendships have an expiration date. But thats life. It's like certain 'friends' I had at university two years ago. I no longer hear from them. Although I do have a couple who I communicate with often. In my experience there has to be shared effort otherwise I just cut them off.
