I have no friends because I am hyper aware of everything around me constantly. I say something and you look at someone else before responding? I saw that. Staring at me? I see. Whispering? I hear. I also have adhd so when someone doesn’t have the same energy as me, I have a really hard time believing they want to be friends with me. If they don’t have the same enthusiasm as me, I feel like they are just talking to me to be nice and actually hate me.

Also it’s easier most of the time to make friends as a kid because everyone’s interests are more similar and children’s mentalities/social awareness aren’t as nuanced yet

Because you’re not accepted very often by other women if you’re not a girls girl. Modern feminism ig.
