We go through phases where we are very good friends but like I said, he barely knows anything about me and that seems to bug me. I asked random questions whilst playing a game online against each other and that's how I got to know him, but he doesn't do even the simplest questions. I mean, here's what facts I can tell you about him off the top of my head: he loves pizza, dr pepper, all ice cream, no allergies, wears UK size 9 shoes. I'm not saying people should know all that about their good friends that they trust; it's just an example. I don't know if it's worth letting him know it bothers me or even how to go about expressing that it kind of upsets me that he really doesn't know anything much about me but has called me his closest friend a few times. I'm probably obsessing over little things in the bigger scheme of things, but it's like he doesn't know anything much about me so he gives up instantly. I don't know why or how to attept to alter it by informing him of how I feel about it.........?? Reply to this Question Share |

I understand how you are feeling, you put in the effort to ask him questions and get to know him as a person but he doesn't seem bothered in getting to know you, off course it would bug you and make you feel that he is just not interested. This could just be his personality. He might feel that the little things don't matter. I guess there ain't much you can do here, as it is up to him if he wants to make the effort in getting to know you. Why not just tell him some things instead of waiting to be asked. It is okay to talk about yourself and things you like and don't like.
