Feeling left out (rant)

So my mom has a wedding shop back in MN.  When she started I helped online doing advertising and and planning things. I didn't make it out there opening weekend but I got out there to help with a grand opening party. I have been organizing her website and facebook since I am so far away.  She finally outgrew her shop and moved into a bigger shop. From there it was a tornado of her getting a nice place, then a business partner, then my brother and dad are building dressing rooms for her.  She facetimed with me to ask if I liked the curtains. They were horrible. So I told her and then she got a little annoyed. I never said anything else about them. The whole time I was feeling left out of all this family business. So I distanced myself.

Then on Friday I went up to visit my aunt. She isn't really my aunt, but my mom's bff. She lives 2 hrs from me. Her BF's daughter has a newborn.  S I was pretty much left out because everything was about the baby.  We had a whole day planned to go shopping, and once the baby came, she ditched me. 

Plus I log in on FB this morning and find out that a bunch of co workers go out for a birthday party. I just hate that I don't have any friends.  Anyone I talk to around here are usually over 60. I talk to this one lady that is 40ish.  We were good friends and come to find out that on Tuesday, she is blaming me for her para getting in trouble.  I didn't tell on her para, but I know who did.  I dropped hints to her to talk to her para before my principal. Now she blames me for telling the principal. 

I thought decorating for Christma would make me feel better, but it didn't.

Summary:
1. I hate that I am not making friends.
2. I hate that I live far away from my family. I don't really hate that I live here, but I hate not being part of anything.
3. People need to learn that I am not out to get them or that I have bad intentions. I am truly trustworthy, and I wish people would quit doubting me.
4. I want to look for a new job, but I am connected to the students too much. :(

Thanks for listening to me vent. Its been a long weekend. Also, thank you for being the only friends I have right now. You have seen me through some hard times, and IDK what I would do without each and every one of you. Here is what I am eating, and what you deserve for reading this...

  • Jen it looks yummy! I'm sorry about how you are feeling. All I can say is I am here if you ever need anything.

    Here's what I'm eating.
  • Hugs!  I'm sorry you are feeling left out. I know the feeling of not making or having friends where you live.  I don't really have any here.  That's why I'm so happy to be moving to Denver.  I hope things start looking up for you.

  • I think that even the friends I have here are shallow. I always get left out of things. All the time. I'm not eating anything exciting right now, so I can't help with that... But I am hungry for lunch! 

    I just wish you lived near me. I would hang out with you all the time.

  • I have people I consider "friends", but notice that I never seemed to get invited to anything and/or we never hang out unless I contact them and say we should do something.  Honestly, I think having all your friends on facebook only makes it worse.  You get to see all the stuff they're doing without you.....

  • I hear ya on not having friends. I have one good friend that is 51 years old. The rest of my so-called friends are not really my friends anymore because they don't ever contact me and we only hang out if I ask them to, and even then sometimes it takes MONTHS for them to find time for me.

    Married the love of my life on 1-21-12. Our princess arrived on 5-28-13.

  • Sorry you are feeling that way. Your desert looks yummy! I have a few really good friends, but never really get to talk to them other than facebook and snail mail. I talk to you guys and my bmb more than anyone else. I am super thankful to have all of dh's family so close. I don't know what i'd do without them.
