I've been feeling a bit lonely and confused. I'm i college and have almost no friends; most of my friends from highschool I don't see anymore because they have either gone away for school or just are woundup in their busy lives. I've had my feelings hurt by people and just had a bad end to a relationship, but I have no one to talk to about anything and there are things I just don't share with anyone and so I've just kept them to myself trying to get through things and over things on my own. I guess people have this view of me that I'm a very independent girl and strong but they don't really know me. I hardly speak with my old friends and when I do it's because I called or emailed them, never the other way around. They tell me about how great their life is, but it kind of makes me mad- not really jealous or anything but...I guess I just feel like I've been cast out and gradually forgotten. It's also so hard for me to make new friends because It's hard for me to trust people. I guess I've just been let down by people so much it's difficult for me to trust anyone and I never lower my guard. I doesn't affect me too much for the most part I am a pretty independent person and have always managed much on my own, but sometimes it really does get to me...those are the times when I hate it all.
