[quote=Anonymous]Hey OP I am dealing with the same thing, only my DH recently (during an argument) told me that I have no friends and don't like anyone.  Sad thing is, that's a true statement.  Still hurts though.

I too have ended close relationships with female friends.  So much so that I'm down to one close friend.  I know what you mean about seeing friendship as a drain - I've struggled with this for years.

I tend to be a terrible friend.  I am so independent that I truly think I'm happiest alone.  keeping in close touch with friends feels burdensome and I tend to have "ghosted" so many friends over the years...I suddenly felt overwhelmed by the relationship, the person's annoying qualities or they did something to hurt me, directly or indirectly.

Female friendships are grueling.  Even quit a book club because I couldn't stand the gossip and general nastiness.  There went six friends.  Quit returning calls from a former close friend because she was super critical and judgmental and took it upon herself to discipline my young child...in front of me.

I'm not perfect but wonder if I'll ever have friends.  It shouldn't be this tough.
