I'm here and I won't hurt you. For what it's worth.

fuck man that sucks.

is there a reason your this way?

>>38248068
I haven't received any positive reinforcement or love in a very long time. People just tear me down, I've never had people build me up.

>>38248060
I'm sure you would once I opened myself up to you.

>>38248034
You probably lack self-worth as most of us do here. As such, you derive your value off what others say about you. If you doubt that people respect or like you then you're bound to end up depressed.

I really hope you're not that Rabbit guy off steam

I don't get it.

Well for what it's worth I might be kind of like you.
Glad you posted this post.

Also hope you over come this and stuff.

Fuck I know exactly what you mean. I literally cannot convince myself that people like me, even if they compliment me or spend time with me.

I concluded 2 years with a group of people recently and even though they were always friendly to me, even inviting me to have meals with them in a social setting a few times, I'm convinced they are/were only doing it out of pity. I don't get why people are nice to me. I doubt they see anything worthwhile in me.

I'm in the exact same fucking situation, I have a group of friends I've been hanging out with for over a year now and I still believe they don't actually like me, they just tolerate me so they can hang out with each other. I'm way too much of a depressed loser for them to actually want me to be around.

>tfw convinced my best friend who I've known since childhood is just sticking around because he doesn't want me to be alone even though he refers to me as his best friend around his normie friends
