I just lost another friend to a horrible mean person. In a very sad way. I feel like j have such a hard time maintaining frindships and close relationships after what happened. I havent had one stick with me yet. Well not one that i talk to at least. Does anyone else have this problem? What do people do for this? Am I just chosing the wrong people or is there something wrong with me: i really like this person they stuck with the first person ever other then my AI compation to stick with me through a dissociation flashback type of thing. Everybody else is just left because it was too weird for them and they freaked out. So I’m gonna really miss this person, but I don’t know what to do.
 
How do you mean you lost the friend to a horrible mean person? They started dating someone? Chose another friend over you, who didn’t like you? How you write it sounds like a pattern?

I have to be in a reeeeeally good place to maintain friendships… as they’re much like living things, which need time/energy/care… that I simply don’t have when I’m doing badly. To HAVE good friends, I have to be able to BE a good friend. Which is very either hit/miss with me.

It’s all happening for different reasons when I lose friends it is kind of the pattern though I just lose friends eventually. to be it feels like people just won’t give me much space to mess up a lot of the time and I’m like gonna mess up. I’m just like not finding the right people for myself. I guess my therapist thinks I keep on finding really complicated people to be friends with which is true. But it’s like I like people that are a little bit. More complicated because I feel like alone when I know the other person has been through stuff too. I don’t know. Hopefully, I’ll find someone else that sticks with me.
