Why don't I have true friends?

 

Sometimes, it's a difficult realization to acknowledge the fact that true friends are hard to find. To understand this, consider the following: Have you ever showed the real you to others? If you think that showing your true self to others might scare them off, you're mistaken. The right person would always find the real you better. If you worry that the people around you don't seem genuine, where it feels like you're lonely regardless of their presence, Change your surroundings. You cannot hope to be warm when you let yourself  stay in the rain. Although it feels terrible right now, have faith that the right people would ALWAYS try their best to make you happy. Yet, I'm sure many of you have heard such kind of advice everywhere you go. The funny thing is, they're not wrong. You will have to be lonely and alone if you value yourself enough to remember the fact that true friends would never make you feel unwanted. You will have to be uncomfortable until you get comfortable being in your own space. The insecurity that stems from you is what's stopping those 'true friends' from approaching you. Have confidence and comfort in yourself, knowing that you're satisfied being alone, for solace is a privilege. Your optimistic attitude will attract like-minded people, for which you shouldn't wait. Focus on your wellbeing and watch yourself attract positive friendships.
