Why do I feel used by my friends?

Answer by  Briana (172)

Perhaps your friends are using you. Try finding some new friends to spend time with for a while, and see if you still feel like you're being used. It could very well be that they are using you and you just need to find new friends who will treat you better.

Feeling used is never a good thing. Make a list of times when you felt your friends used you and then make a list of times your friends helped you out. Do they match up pretty well? If not, look out for your self-esteem and find friends who value who you are and not what you can do for them.

People tend to feel used when they do not receive appreciation from people they are close to and care about.
