i want a best friend...


Question Posted Tuesday November 24 2009, 9:34 pm

i have tons of friends, but i'm not extremely close with any of them. i used to have a best friend but she let me down big time and i realized i don't want someone like that in my life. i feel its even hard to trust my friends, like don't get me wrong i love hanging out with them and stuff and they're fun people, thats why we're friends :)...but i feel like i can't completely trust anyone..everyones always talking shit and i actually caught my old "best friend" talking shit about me. i'm honestly a nice person and i try to get along with everyone but high school girls and even most of the guys now just love to talk shit because they're bored with their own lives and they love attention. i only trust 2 people in my life, my dad and my boyfriend of a year(and they're both guys look at that). i kind of want a female to trust though...or at least get close to. how do i go about approaching this? and it sucks cause all my closest friends are friends with my ex "best friend"....if you could even call her that....

High school is a tough year but that's just the reality of it. Everything in high school is just a learning experience. In the real world after high school, it's much tougher. Even if you don't have a best friend, it's all right as long as you have many friends to hang around with. It's completely natural to not trust them, just don't make it obvious. Just think that it's better to have friends than no friends at all. Just be cool and understand them.

I totally understand what you are saying. High school is tough, and girls love to talk behind peoples backs. I think it is okay to recognize this, because its obvious and the natural reaction would be to not trust them. You can still hang out with them and have fun, but to not fully trust them is very understandable.
I know you want the one girl you can trust, and maybe you will become very close with one of your friends (friends tend to drift a bit, at times you are reaaaal close then you drift away a bit, and some friends get lost in the ocean forever)
Trust is a really valuable gift. Quite honestly, it is a gift you have to earn. These girls do not sound like they desserve that gift. Not to worry, you never know who will come in your life and will earn that trust. It may not be right now, but as we mature I think you will find that female you can really trust.Dont rush, dont get discouraged because trust takes a long time to earn
