Honestly, Do you literally have No friends?

I only have one friend out in the world, and a few online. For me at least, it just seems like the more people I know, the more problems I have. I’m too sensitive and jacked-in to other people’s emotions and feelings; I get overwhelmed too easily to be around people for any substantial period of time. I don’t consider myself a misanthrope, it’s really the opposite - I like people, they’re just too much for me.

Well I only have one guy who I consider as a friend,I work with him,there is no way anybody dislikes this guy,he is not your typical guy,I guess thats why I consider him as a friend,but I dont go out with him or anything like that,but he is the only one who texts me,I talk on the phone even if its only a few times.

Before I started work, I had no friends. I lost touch with my only school friend when I started college and I found it very difficult to make friends here that I left two years later knowing nobody.

I DO have a couple of acquantancies, but all met through work, and I only email them a couple of times a year and they are all much older than me. I have only my old school friend my own age and I only contact him now and again. Otherwise, nobody ever calls me/emails me.

I've had zero friends for many years. I have a group of really cool people now, but they are all far away, sadly.

I've always had at least one friend every year. My parents egged me to talk to people, and I will talk to someone who initiates conversation with me.

Right now I basically only have one good friend.

Somehow I still find a way to turn this against myself and hate that I only have one friend - as if I'm so lame, since he has a lot more friends than I do and often I feel like I'm burdening him by my lame presence.

But then again, I only see him about 4 times a year at most anyways. We don't talk much anymore because our college choices were far away. I have another "good friend", but the last time we've really met? A few years, possibly, besides a few awkward texts.
 
erm.. i have some friends, but they not close friends.. sometime i feel i dont have friends, because if we not close friends.. then it feels like we aint really friends because i dont tell them everything about me, it just feels like they just someone i know.

my sa didnt used to be bad before, and each friend i would make it my aim to get to know them really well, even if we not close.. and then taht way i feel they my friend.

but now its different.. i think i have a few, online some..

i have a work colleague who i talk to alot online, but barely in person.. not even hello or bye. so hes like an online friend.

I only have one single friend, he's my best friend.There are some ppl in college i get along with and stuff but i wouldnt consider them friends, i dont confide in them and we dont go out. Im pretty miserable as it is that i dont have more friends, cant imagine what my life would be without my best friend.

I have many online friends. I can be myself when I'm online.. But in real life... I have some people around me.. But I can't cry with them, they don't know the real me. Can I call them "friends"? ::(:

I'm the same =/ I can be so normal and genuine online, I'm free from my self-loathing umbrella I carry with me when I am around others physically..

I dont have many I would consider friends in real life though. The friends I made at the beginning of the university year have sort of drifted away from hangin out havin a good time, to saying hey and how's it going..and it ends there.

Just 3 guys I consider my friends, I've known from high school. I know if I call them and ask them to hang out they would...but I hardly every initiate it. Maybe a few times in a year we meet but that's it.

My life is so empty
