Struggling to Make Friends as I Get Older

I love to make friends yet as I get older I find it harder to find people who are like me or just able to stay around long enough. They always talk to me like friends but once they are done with me they stop and just look at me with disgust.

Keeping relationships going is my problem. I have good days and bad. During the bad days, I retreat into myself and don’t engage. It’s hard to find people that will be okay with that.

yeah I do that often cause I get ashamed and paranoid that people consistently are saying stuff about me.

I get that, I want to make friends but Ive been so quiet for so many years that now that Im willing to try to speak no one really wants to talk to me. other only talk to me when they need help or somthing, and they stop talking when neither of us really need eachother.
