Ever feel like you're being used? 1

Everyone wants something.
Whether it be drugs, money, or a ride . . . They all want something
No one wants to visit.
Or just talk.
Or check in.
It's confusing.
It's not as if I have much to offer.
But they want it all.

I have ONE friend who will hit me up just to talk about life, and hang out just because we are good friends. Not because he wants a dab, or a bowl to smoke, or a beer to drink, or a ride. I know how it is man. Its much better having several good friends than it is having a bunch of blood sucking leeches around. Latching on to me like the teet. People need to be more self reliant..

Its give and take. I know what you feel though. If you have nothing to offer....and nothing is ooffered to you....what's the point of life?

Hey man, we all feel like this at some point. Fuck, I have some major depression issues I'm going through right now.
It seems your fog can be cleared though...the fog being the feelings provoked upon you by your friends can be stopped simply by slicing through it. Now I'm not saying go around killing your aquantances but merely try unplugging and rebooting.

If they aren't having a negative effect then you are really kind of being a crybaby or hang out on the computer too much.

me and my good buddies text each other all the time just to see how our days are going, don't you ever say hey just to say hey? try it OP, you may be surprised when your friends start doing the same, unless they're just shitty friends.

I feel your pain OP. I figured out that it's because I'm too nice, because that's how I was raised. So I stopped being nice and learned to say no. And if I am owed money for whatever reason, best believe I am coming to your house pissed off with a few choice words for you, or pestering you on the phone four or five times a day till I'm paid. But I don't like being that way and I shouldn't have to harass you for my loan back, so...
My new years resolution was to find new friends. So far I have found none, but have ran off 6. So I'm half way there. I have three friends left and two of them are my parents and the other one is my girl.

The major perks of social interaction is a distribution of duties. Use someone for a purpose under the pretenses that they are using you for an equal purpose of some sort. If things get out of balance, point it out. If nothing changes, delete her off of your facebook and block her number from texting you

Not much. I can tell though say for example! I take my neighbor to the store because he is too drunk to drive. Ok a few days later I was pushing it and ran out of gas on the road that we both live on that isnt even a football Field long. I come ask him hey man I just ran out of gas I got $$ and I could throw him $5 cash n a pack of
Smokes guess what he says? Well ahhhh I just dont feel like it!! What!! I Didnt feel like getting out of my chair after working a 12hr shift but I did.
The way I see it treat others how you wont to be treated. If he were to knock on the door Right now and ask for a ride you know whar I would say? I guess so mann make it quick lol

Seriously, stay off the electronics kids.
Once you see you are just being used as a 'like' the world becomes a drab place.

My good friend is broke as hell, doesn't have a car, and loves drugs as much as I do.
I end up constantly hooking him up out of sympathy and I'm down a lot of money because of it. Him and I genuinely get along, but he almost never has anything to offer himself.
Because of this I despise him at the moment. I realize it's a phase that will pass but he owes me money and is spending it out drinking and continuously texting me about how shitty he is and how he owes me but he never pays back anyways...
/rant over. that felt good kind of.
I don't really know what you are going through OP. I'm careful with my friends and it's always a scratch back traded for a scratch back (unless it's this one friend above)

People will use you, once you catch on you'll notice when it's happening, their voice, the way they say thanks or whatever they say will sound not genuine. They don't ever hit you up to hang out but whenever they see you they always talk about "how your awesome and oh by the way could you do this for me?"
I fell out of that bullshit kind of once I graduated high school, still took a bit for me to catch on though. Now I surround myself with people I enjoy for the way they think and what we do together, usually art now and just being goofy or talking. It's so much nicer to feel really human with people. I don't see as many people but that gives me time to devote to bettering myself and giving to true friends.
To everyone here saying its always a back and fourth, I'm really really sorry that's what you feel like human interaction has turned int for you. Maybe you always have to give to receive but it's emotion, care and humor, joy, ideas, music, actions...not just materials.

There are girls i call for one reason. And thats the only reason. Of i course I give them a different reason. Thats shitty too on my part. Do your drugless friends make up other excuses to come over or get you to come there? If you want to make new friends go to a bar where you know no one and get drunk. It is on you to talk and be social too. Your new BFF isn't going to come up and knock on your door. I have a zillion drinking buddies but no one to drive me to the airport. I get everyone drugs at no profit to myself but can't find anyone to feed my cat while i am away. You know what go for quality not quantity. Fuck now i am depressed too!

sounds like you need to eliminate people out of your life. i end up feeling used with certain people but i have weeded those people out over the past couple years. the people i'm friends with now, it is close to 50/50. if youre down and out, i'll help you but it has be the same on the other side.
normally i can tell if someone is a "user" by small shit, like not throwing down weed ever. so i tend to avoid these types.

I think everyone feels that way from time to time, but I think it's most important to maintain kindness towards everyone. This doesn't mean allowing yourself to be walked on by other people. That sets a very poor precedent for them to follow in other relationships.

the problem with this mentality is; Ill drive you to the airport AND feed your cat so I can use it as leverage later.
