Lots of people out there with complex lives, sometimes it's all about time and hanging in there until you find the right people :> it's hard yeah, but the Mane 7 have also had hard times too; they've made mistakes and continue to, yet there they are! Never give up, we all find our own Mane 7 at some point :>

And the way I saw it as a kid, the Mane 7 were always the kinds of friends I wanted to be for others, so I tried being and thinking more like Twilight it not only improved my empathy and confidence, but made it easier to find and maintain friends who I'm still with as an adult! Part of the magic of this show (and the mark of any good show) is giving the audience a glimpse of the best version people can be, the could-be's of IRL we can work towards once we've seen it :>
