Why does it seem that some people have it all and some of us only have some of it and have to work our asses off to get it? I have one friend who seems to have the perfect life...she is skinny, beautiful, engaged happily, has a great job that she loves, makes lots of $, good friends, etc etc...and i really can't figure out what she is missing. i know people who seem to have it all usually are missing something inside...but i really can't figure out what she is missing/ could want. its not fair that some people are like that!
i on the other hand, have a job i enjoy, nowhere near getting married, dont have many good friends where i live, i have friends i hang out w/, but they are not very sincere and i really dont feel very connected w/ them...i need to find new friends, but am working full time and in school full time, so outside of that, dont really have time to try to meet new people... i know these people are gossipers and feel that if i didnt make any effort, they wouldnt either and i would never do anything. it sucks and makes me sad that i dont have one friend i feel i can rely on or really feel like cares a lot about me after hanging out w/ these people for a year! i live w/ some of them also, so its hard to just cut contact, plus i want to have some kind of social life since i am only 24, sometimes i feel so old bc my friends dont even really like to go out much and never want to meet people when we do! this is just frustrating and upsetting! anyone who can relate?

thanks

i'll i would say that while your friends lfe may look perfect to you, her reality (despite what she may tell you) could be much different.

I try not to compare myself to others. Yeah, it is hard not to do, however, people with seemingly perfect lives are only that---seemingly perfect. It's just like that on here I bet; I am sure some of us probably look better off than others, but that isn't necessarily the case. Like in real life, not everyone is open and honest about the reality of their situations.
