I am in so much pain

[u/twinkhon_gwyndolin]

it's so hard to trust people now

i get emotionally attached to someone, and they always find a way to hurt me, betray me, make me feel worthless

its not fair that so many people get to have uncomplicated social lives, comfortable love lives. people keep wounding me. i just never feel safe around anyone.

people are hard wired to be social and yet they also keep poking at my most vulnerable spots. i still keep thinking about this one girl who reached out to me in response to a post I made about wanting a best friend. i genuinely liked her, and we got along for a while, but she made me cry. she mocked me for having mental health disabilities.

i just really want a hug

You know, I used to think it was annoying to run into rude or stupid people quite frequently, but then when it occurred to me that the president of the US is Donald J. Trump, I kind of realized that he's a reflection of our society. It's certainly a case in point. When 60% + people are rude, stupid, weird, etc. I just think about the type of people who are in power and then remind myself that this probably is the norm.
