Dear Honey,
reading your words was a huge surprise to me. Not in a negative sense, quite the opposite - I can 100% identify with what you're saying. As you probably know it's sometimes so difficult to verbalise inner feelings and unless somebody says it aloud, you don't know how to express them. That's exactly what happened with me just now.

I know one person whom I've ever called my true best friend. We barely keep in touch now. I got kind of used to not-having-true-friends, but it's really hard sometimes. I've never been in a relationship, but I've been close to it once or twice and each time I really like someone and it doesn't work out, it just devastates my already low self-esteem. I also think that there's always someone better than me. From the common sense point of view this kind of thinking is absurd, I know...
From what you're saying you sound like a sweet girl. I'm sure someone here will offer you some advice (as I'm probably not the best person for this... well) but I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone with your problems. I hope things get better for you soon.

All the best xx Sue
