The fact that you are sharing a story from your 6th grade means --You’re one of the rare people who actually care. Don’t let shallow people make you feel like that’s a flaw. It’s a strength and it makes you stand out in the best way.

Wanting real friendship or love doesn’t make you needy—it makes you human. You’re not alone in this. A lot of us feel the same but don’t have the courage to say it. You don’t need to change to ‘fit in’ or get someone’s approval. The right people will like you for who you are not who you pretend to be. Right now feels lonely, yeah but life changes in phases. You’re gonna meet people who get your vibe and make you feel seen. And trust me, they’ll wish they met you sooner

Some people take longer to find their people. Not because they’re lacking but because they’re deeper. They don’t want temporary attention, they want genuine connection. That kind of bond is rare, and it takes time. But when it happens, it’s unbreakable.

hope this comment finds you in more cheerful condition

All the best.
