Anyone Else Have Trouble Finding/keeping Friends And Finding/keeping A Boyfriend?
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am currently wondering if I am the only person in the world that has trouble finding and keeping friends who will stand by them and be loyal while going through even the worse of times as well as the best of times?

I am also currently wondering if I am the only person in the world that finds it hard to find a good man that will be there for me no matter what and finds it hard to be able to keep said man/boyfriend?

@A MyDepressionTeam Member I thought the same but people can understand the scars and the disorder just need to wait for someone who can understand it. I never thought anyone could until they did

Hey Charlie

My sister in -law had been by herself for years and she got to the point where she literally said, unless someone knocks on my door I'm not bothering to look. Guess what, someone did actually knock on her door and she is now married. So go enjoy your life, do the things that you love to do and when you least expect it someone will turn up and think nothing of your scars. The scars that are hidden inside of you are the real dangerous ones because people cannot see them. Take Care

I have the same problem too.
I've got the husband, but we met when I was in my teens. Before this dreaded disorder entered my life. I've always been the kind of person that thinks a friendship is forever and am hurt when people move away, or just move on. I had two very close friends, one since high school and the other since my 20's. I moved from Seattle to the Phoenix area long ago and that didn't help! The second one just stopped responding. When I was finally able to contact her she wouldn't give me a reason why. 😥 I still miss her. I just am not sure what it is that causes this but I know​ we aren't the only ones.
