Under Construction - MHWA Retreat

I know I'm a day late for this discussion, but figured I would answer it anyways.

A while back some things happened and I isolated, not trusting many people. The result is that I used some of those on WdC as a support system. This was sort of unhealthy due to my tendency to hide from the world. Lately I've been working on developing a support system of friends again.

Having a boyfriend that is more of a social butterfly is helpful with this. It forces me around people and to meet new people. Most of my current friends, I would consider more acquaintances. Some see me as a close friend, but they actually know very little about me. They feel this way because they have shared themselves with me. People tend to be that way. When you listen, they seem to think you are their best friend or something, even though it is actually one-sided.

My circle of close friends outside of WdC is pretty small, but at least I have a circle of friends now. Throughout the years, it has fluctuated quite a bit, typically due to betrayal from the other party.

When it comes to women, I struggle with trust. They can be gossipy and catty, feeding off of drama. So, most of my closest, consistent friends have been men. My best friend is actually an ex-boyfriend from ten years ago. We were friends that decided to try being a couple, which ended up not working out, yet we continued being friends after the relationship ended.
