    Hello there friend! I can relate in my own way, I am 34 (male) got a girlfriend that is tired of me but she stays anyway and I made a special friend. She was female, and we weren't up to anything - but after a while she thought I was too much and asked me to back off.

    We used to hang out a bit and I felt connected again to people! When the friend said back off, it has been quite devastating. It's funny, I am a successful business owner, well respected - but whenever I show my colours people back off.

    My girlfriend is never around but I have a cute cat. I was spending time with her - Saturday night then weeping on the floor of my kitchen. What's tough for me is that I am a respected community leader so I can't tell anyone.

    I hope you read this and although we don't know who each other is - I care for you and sorry you are suffering. I hope you work through it in your own way take care x x

    Focus on yourself first, once you are comfortable and happy with yourself making friends is easier. Also please see someone things like this are too difficult to deal with on your own :))

      I'm trying but every time I see them I remember everything we've done together. I'd been friends with them for so long it isn't fair. And I would talk to someone but idk who to talk to. We're in college, there aren't any counselors I can speak to. And when I talk to my parents they just say "ignore them" or "you'll be fine" I have no one to go to. I've been looking for a site like this for a while now where I can talk about this and not be rebuked and cursed at for being "a wimp"
