I hear your heart cry and know it's easier to text on Facebook rather than deal with a real person. When you're the one being rejected it's soul-crushing. I hate the way technology has replaced spending real time with people and I suppose the only answer is to get involved with people who are willing to spend time with you. You might have to volunteer and deal with strangers until you find someone who is looking for real friendship or even love. In the end making the effort is better than staying home alone. I hope you find someone who cares as much as you do and wants to reach out.
