Guy friend.

7 months ago · 2 · Friendship, +2


136

So, there's this guy friend of mine. Well, the only friend of mine. I've never had any friends in my life. Well, at least not one that I can share anything with. I've been friends with this guy for about 3 months or something. He makes me comfortable. I'm an introvert and he's and extrovert. I feel a lot more comfortable with him. He constantly assures me that I can lean on him and I can share anything with him. He has so many friends. Sometime I think that I'm just one in his vast range of friends. That thought hurts me but still it's nice to have such a caring friend.

So, recently he started asking me if he's irritating me and If I liked him as a friend. I told him that I like him. But he constantly asks me that if I like him as a friend. I mean, why did he even get a doubt in the first place if I liked him? Who would not like such a sweet person like him? Why do people who are loved the most doesn't know that they're loved? He always says that he feels like people hate him and I always tell him that that's not the case and he's just imagining it. But he doesn't seem to understand how good it is to be an extrovert. I mean, as an introvert, I feel that extroverts are gods. How do they start a conversation with almost everyone? I'd die of social anxiety. Anyway, he doesn't seem to understand that. Idk what to do with this chingu. Ugh! After 16 revolutions around the sun I got a friend like him and he thinks that everyone doesn't like him, especially me. WHAT THE HELL.

    He is insecure and wants assurance.

    Extrovert people may seem really confident and all but SOMETIMES people's extrovert nature arises from insecurities or need for reassurance. Sometimes they may feel like they're bothering other people by being so open and talking to them. So as the previous comment says, he just wants assurance that you're not annoyed by him.
