i've never been good at making or keeping friends. and, for the most part, i'm okay with it. it might sound bad, but there's a lot of work involved in building friendships, and if i don't click with someone, i am not going to waste my time. i'm picky, i guess. the downside of this, is that, like now, i find myself dealing with life changing situations and strong emotions, myself. sometimes i want it to be this way. sometimes, i'd rather just be distracted. and sometimes, i wish i didn't feel like i was always burdening others - and thus, just keeping to myself. there's a delicate balance between dumping/over-sharing and asking for support. i don't have a good gauge on that balance yet. i always think i'm on the dumping end, even if it's not really true. at some point, i really want to - i want to trust someone and feel comfortable enough that i can just be open about the fact that i'm going through some things.. and that i might need some help. asking is hard.
