Why can't I just be anyone's favourite person
Hello, im a 20 yr old boy, dont wanna say too much, but man do I want to be someone's best friend.
Ive never had that many friends, also never had a girlfriend. Had social anxiety for as long as I can remember so I barely ever go out and talk to anyone. Most of my friends I met online, and school friends i dont really talk to much anymore.
As of lately, ive came to a realisation that most of these friends I have have their own friends, and I feel like everyone's second choice most of the time. This thought has really been eating me up lately.
There is one friend I really wanted to get close to, someone I relate to a lot more than others, neither of us smoke/vape/drink, and we both share similar interests. But I feel like thats been a complete failure as he is someone who has a LOT of other friends.
Is this is a normal thing for people?
