Ok, I'm not gonna stop following God, but I'm really frusterated at Him. I got that off my chest, though the actual subject isn't really about that.
They say "To get a friend you must be a friend." That is only true to an extent. I recently moved here and met some nice girls from church. I get along with them great and we all exchanged numbers. They all claim they're so "busy" and don't have time to hang out or talk on the phone much other then church. Then WHY are they so PERFECTLY able to answer the phone and talk for a while?! I have to call them and they can talk then, but why is it so hard for them to call me?
I also don't just want that. I want a friend/friends that I can hang out with other then just church. It's not working that way.
Also, I don't go to school. I just got a job at Burger King that I start Tuesday, so I'm hoping maybe I can make friends there or something..
I know these girls like to talk to me, and they'd say occasionally "Thanks for calling." and "I'm here for you whenever you need me."
Also, the longer I go alone, the less I have social skills. It usually is hard for me to get adjusted to new places and people. I just want a couple of good friends or so that I can hang out with.
The pastor I saw last Sunday said how we have feelings/longings in us of how our lives should be, which would probably be more like how we should try to achieve being. The devil wants us to believe that we should lower our standards and not believe that things in our lives could be better. He used examples of someone who thinks we should be poor. He said that no one should feel like they should be poor.
Well, I feel like I should have friends just like everyone else. I'm sick of being lonely. The only people I've talked to here other then church are my parents, and a long-distance boyfriend who is going to go to the military next month or so. What if HE leaves, and I have no one to really talk to except my parents?
Am I doing something wrong? I've been praying for at least ONE friend.. That hasn't even happend.
Am I being ungreatful? Do you think God's plan was to give me the friends at church but not be able to hang out with them during the week, and not have them call me? I don't get it. I'm getting depressed and I feel like crying again..
