Over the past 4 months, things have been changing. One thing that has changed the most is myself. I used to be withdrawn and isolated. I only had about 4 friends at the time. Two of them passed away. Also, for a good part of the time, I was being harassed and stalked by a pervert.
After a couple of my friends passed away (almost one year apart), I eventually snapped. I decided that I am going to actually reach out to people that I know who could be friends. (Even though I've only considered very few people as friends, I did know a lot of people in the places I went to). Interestingly enough, it only took talking to one person before I got swarmed. (It is actually weird how it happened) All of a sudden I have more than 10, almost 20 friends within the last 4 months.
People that know me noted a change in me. They have noted how I used to be withdrawn and now I am actually open. (This happened over a course of 4 years, not all at once though with my personal change).
To top things off, I may actually be in the beginning of a romantic relationship. It seems like things are looking up for me.
