I don’t like people or making friends so I stick to family and 1 close friend that’s gets my “icky”

A lot of people don’t understand my ADHD quirks. Like in a conversation I am not trying to one up your story with my story, but more trying to let you know I was actually listening to what you were saying. That makes making new friends difficult when they are not open to your quirks, but also friendships are time-consuming and with kids in sports and a full-time job is not what I have a lot of. I have a few close friends that understand me, and the rest are more acquaintances

The closest I have to “friends” these days is parents of my kids friends. The last friend I made that I actively talk to, thanks to ADHD, was made in the 6th grade! She has ADHD too, so you should listen to those conversations, you’d need a map to follow along because we WILL bounce around and come back to finish EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. OF. OUR. CONVERSATIONS. Lol. We just HAVE TO! Otherwise it will bug us.

I don't go about making friends in general. I'm a friendly person, and get along with all different types of people. I was always very popular with all my customers no matter where I worked. I have had long term friends over the years, but after so many years....those don't exist anymore. Mainly because of me of course. Making plans to hang out with people is hard enough for me anymore let alone actally doing it. Lol.

Fact! And the older you are, the more life you have. The less you want to just go out with friends. It’s a young man’s game. To me friends are someone you talk to about your shit, but I’m far too exhausted to maintain a friendship like others. My sister goes out with her friends. Does lunches. Shops with them. Yeah me, I sit at home and watch shows. That’s good time for me! I like watching tv, alone.

Just stumbled upon this App and figured why not try it out? I need to help myself before I can even think about having friends again! Im a 36 year old 1st time mom of a 3 year old with a developmental delay. Hoping something will help my crazy mind to make things easier for the both of us!

I join hobby clubs or try stuff like indoor bouldering — if I feel like chatting to other people, I might ask tips on how to do a tricky climb. If I don’t feel like chatting to them, I’ll just climb by myself.

Well I don’t really want in person friends lol. I usually stick to having one good friend I talk to daily.

I try to be more easy-going and had already tried to make friends with a total stranger by coming to him and showing him my insta, like asking him to get me his instagram. He didn’t have one, but we connected on another messenger. It led to nothing, but I will definitely do it again, that was fun)

To be more clear, I showed him a search page of insta with a screen keyboard open so he could easily enter his nickname in insta)

I’m hopeless at making new friends cause I’m too shy to ask them anywhere and I’m afraid of rejection so

I have a few long lasting friendships and i appreciate them...but when someone new comes up to me i turn into a rude cactus which has been abused so now it spits acid. I dont handle new people well and actually i dont even want to

I don’t…. I don’t have the willpower to carry on friendships anymore. I have a box and I stay in my box .. rarely do I leave those boundaries.
