Tired of feeling alone

I haven't had real friends in a long time. Maybe never. My "best friend" doesn't seem to have/make time for me in her life anymore. Less than 50 people showed up to my wedding. More than half were family and the rest were coworkers who had nothing better to do. I invited probably 3 times that many.

My son's 4th birthday party is today. The invitees are all either family or friends of family. None are MY friends.

I am so tired of feeling like I have no one in my life. My family is great, and I am grateful for their presence in my life, but there is a whole part of life that I am missing out on at 34 years old. I don't know what to do. Both of my sisters make friends so easily. No one seems to care about me, truly care, except my family. And even with them around, I feel alone.

Girl hit me up

I feel ya

I feel the same way only I don't have family anymore and no friends so I know the exact feeling and it sucks big time

I hear you, and I just want to say you are not alone. It’s so hard feeling like you don’t have deep, true friendships, especially when you see others forming them so easily. But your feelings are valid, and they don’t mean you’re not worthy of love and connection. Sometimes, friendships don’t come as effortlessly as we hope, but that doesn’t mean they won’t come at all.

Your presence matters, and I promise there are people out there who would love and appreciate you for who you are. I know it hurts to feel overlooked, but please don’t let this make you believe you aren’t valuable. You are.
And I’m here if you ever need someone to talk to🩷

Girl I feel this to my core! I have the same problem- minus the family. I don’t have family to support me either lol 🙃😅 but idc if all I had was a few close friends that were like family. That doesn’t happen for me either.
So I feel you on this! I’m sorry I wish I could fill that spot for you

If your partner got a prostitute pregnant and then abandoned the child/ran away, what would be your response? Read…

So you were not in a relationship at the time or were about to be in a relationship, he gets the prostitute pregnant.
It’s her fault for not taking their morning after pill.
He tells her straight up that he’s not going to be involved and that she should terminate it.
She says that she won’t terminate and she hopes that he does stick around

So she deliberately gets pregnant, basically traps him

What would be your reaction?
he’s response is:
“She trapped me and it’s her fault for not taking the pill”

STD rates and body count

Saw an interesting video and I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on this topic!

So std rates are at an all time high as we all know. Do you think the mindset that body count doesn’t matter has contributed to the significant increase of STDs and HIV?

Secondly if someone says that body count doesn’t matter do you believe they are less likely to practice safe sex compared to people who believe in more traditional values?

I can’t put all the combinations in the poll so feel free to comment just yes/no answers
