Or am I just seeking too much attention. I have two close friends. I pretty much only talk to them, or my siblings. But I know that all of them have a lot of friends who they hang out with, who they talk to often. But they don't talk to me too often, or we have empty conversations that feel like they are just tolerating me. Am I just being needy? They don't respond for several hours a lot of the time. Maybe I'm expecting too much, I have too much time on my hands and I need to occupy myself with other things. But I just feel so lonely. Most days I don't see anyone, or talk to them very long. But I don't want to burden my friends and siblings. Lately I've tried to stop texting them but it just makes me feel more lonely. I'm going to try to join some clubs (im in college) and try to meet new people and make new friends. I'm just not sure if it's normal for me to expect to talk to someone (the same person/people) regularly. I'd appreciate any thoughts.
