It's happened before but it never lasts. Other people are never as interested in me as I am in them. I've also never had more than 1 or 2 real friends at any point in my life, which means I'm always the lonlier, needier person. I'm painfully conscious of that so when I start drifting apart from another person, I don't try to hang on. I don't want to appear needy and pathetic while they're getting on with life and forgetting about me as they should.
