I don't usually ask for advice... I'm terribly wary of pinning my problems on other people. But I've come to a screeching halt and I need... Something...
My friends are my staple support in life, they're what make me who I am. And I've been losing my friends. It's due to a multitude of factors. Friends both in Tumwater and online, everywhere, all the time, it seems everyday, drifting off or breaking apart. I'm left with almost no close friends because of it. I'm confused and I keep getting the feeling that I'm doing something wrong. My school counselor, being that I talked to him already on this, says that an event coming up might help me, but I'm afraid that there's just something that keeps me from connecting as deeply as my companionable personality requires.
I need wisdom; I'm lacking it and I'm feeling completely lost as a result. I'm usually in control but I've lost my grasp on the situation completely. I keep withdrawing into myself because I'm afraid of making more friends that I'll just lose in what will seem like mere moments. I'm not ready for (...or deserving of) promises and strong bonds; I'll just get butterflies inside as I anticipate the worst.
Does anybody know what would help a clueless boy be content again, other than just trying to be more open or let it go...? I can't do those... Opinions, things that help you in similar scenarios, personal stories, helpful information... I don't want just sympathy and a pat on the back. I want something to subconsciously or otherwise kick me back into the incessantly happy, friendly mood I was in barely less than a year ago...
God, it was TFF that got me in that mood to begin with.

well its not a completley weird situation cause i see it all the time and have it happen to me all the time. i just get over it and go on with my life as positive as i can be, which at some times it feels like you cant be because "everyone" has left or is leaving you....but its not always your fault. and enjoy the friends you DO have because thinking you have no friends and knowing you have no friends are two completley different things that dont go along with each other well. and if your "friends" just leave YOU!!! (knowing what you were like X3) they cant be very good friends or people for that matter

people come and go but generally you can always get the best friends back. eventually if not straight away. Just carry on life and burn through the people until you got some that just wont burn.
