It is like I keep thinking I am making a new/close friend and then for whatever reason, I eventually end up never hearing from them again and I am left wondering what the heck I did wrong. What can I do to stop trusting people so much and instantly trying to become close friends with them when they all eventually end up not speaking to me anymore? Reply to this Question Share |

Maybe you're just trying too hard? Its nice to be someones friend and offer them advice etc, but you want more out of life than to be someones sounding board. But it could be that you put that across to them so they listen to you, then they're off sorting their life.
Hang on in there because its nice to be nice, and one day it will pay off.
