I wish people liked me for me. And maybe this is my own fault. I'm always so quick to offer support, to lend an ear. Maybe I set myself up to be used. My boyfriend genuinely likes the person that I am, but he is in love with me. That's different.
I want friends who are friends with me not because I fill some void, or let them vent, or make them feel good and special. I want them to genuinely enjoy my presence, even if I'm not helping them in some way. I have a lot of love to give, I do. And I don't mind giving. But I can't help but feel like people, friends, only value me because of what I give.
I don't know how to do this friend stuff. Actually, I recently learned that friends are just people that you like and have repeated exposure to. It's not that complicated. And it's pretty easy to make friends. But I seem to always end up in one-sided friendships. Why? I have horrible boundaries? No self-worth? I'm desperate? Boring? What is it?
