[quote=Anonymous]I no longer get hurt or keep tabs. I realized that I have little need of people as I am a social introvert.

I have been taught (because of my culture) to include everyone.  So, everyone gets included when I organize some event. We do a lot of socializing (again - because of my culture), so I am hosting, reciprocating, attending events regardless of if I am into it or not.  There is a reason that it's called social obligations.  I show up, I am super helpful, I am a good guest, I  give appropriate gifts, I connect people, I don't gossip, I don't shame, I don't bad mouth, I share resources,  I don't overstay my welcome, I am not married to my friends and I don't care what they think of me.   I also have a solid core group of friends, family and neighbors that show up when needed. Still, if they don't invite me and invite my friends instead...I am not devastated.  My heart, mind and soul is safe with me.

The more I have distanced myself mentally from this, the more sought after I have become.
