I (20F) feel like I’m never going to be enough. No matter what I do, how kind I am or how empathetic or how much I care, everyone always leaves. The guys I date decide they don’t want me, the friends I used to have leave me behind or stab me in the back, and no one looks at me with interest.

I just don’t get it. I really do think that I’m kind and funny and smart and pretty, but I guess other people don’t. I’m not enough for anyone to stay. I’m never going to be able to rely on anyone or have a solid relationship or a best friend. I’m always second best or worse. I do everything right and try hard and take meds and go to therapy and try not to let my mental health issues bleed onto other people, but still no one wants me. 

I just don’t know what to do anymore. I want to be confident and happy, but it’s hard to do that when it seems like everyone is trying to prove to you that you’re not important enough to them.
