I don't have any friends, let alone best friends. Gave up on people a long time ago when I graduated high school. I'm uncomfortable around others now, and I never have anything in common with anyone. And maybe I sound like a jerk, but I really don't like anyone enough to want to be around them on purpose anyway. I've got my husband and my pets and that's all I need.
I get ya!!!

I have a good friend that I would do anything for and they would do anything for me. Other than that it is just my immediate family.

I don't have any best friends. I have a friend that I have known for over ten years, but I don't consider her my best friend. We kind of had an falling out and I for gave her, but we just aren't that close anymore.

I really don't have any close friends. My husband is the only one that I keep close too.

Do you have a friend that expects you to answer every last one of their calls? She calls me her best friend but I don't feel the same. Clingy, maybe? :confused1:
 I have learned not to emotionally connect myself to anyone. I hate rejection and it hurts when the friendship ends. (for whatever reason).


No! That would be annoying! Lol And not part of a healthy friendship. They're putting too much pressure/responsibility on you to be available at the drop of a hat. There needs to be an ease and understanding in a friendship. :)

This is why you have caller ID.  Ignore the call.  You have to be able to show that type of person that you aren't at their beck and call.  Sometimes you have to be cruel to be nice.

Unfortunately, I've had to separate myself from almost everyone in my life for one reason or another so no, I don't have that problem.  The one friend I do talk to often is very respectful of my time and I am the same way for her.

Maybe she's only being clingy because she believes you two are best friends- maybe it'd be a good idea to let her know in a nice way the feeling is not mutual?

I'm alone also, with the exception of my kids.  I text my best friend daily, she lives in another state, and my ex husband calls a lot, that's about it.  I've been ok with it but next year I'd like to socialize more- for balance.

I don't have any friends, let alone best friends. Gave up on people a long time ago when I graduated high school. I'm uncomfortable around others now, and I never have anything in common with anyone. And maybe I sound like a jerk, but I really don't like anyone enough to want to be around them on purpose anyway. I've got my husband and my pets and that's all I need.
