Hi IM,
Friendships are hard and finding that right one is even harder.

Some things to consider (because these are reasons I've in the past stopped contacting people or hidden them from my FB page for being a nuissance) is:
- Are you a serial poster on FB and always sharing annoying things (not photos etc, but those posts of "how pretty will I be in 2020")
- Are you writing legible sentences when talking to people
- Are you making as much effort as they are

Take your son to a playgroup or join a sport, just do something for you though!!

So many people have trouble making friends, and yet each one of them feels so alone and like there must be something wrong. It's just hard to make friends! Its a lot more effort than you think to make a friend rather than have one fall in your lap because of circumstance. Have a look at the Beefriend series on YouTube https://youtu.be/4P_wJhPN2UA

Sometimes you’re better off having no best friend than heaps of fake friends.
I’ve lost my share of friends.
Why? I won’t play their games? I don’t go out drinking and crap, like heck I got that out of my system years ago. I will call you out if you lie and gosssip, and then more gossip is spread and believed and if you believe the gossip I’m not going to chase you if you can’t check with me if it’s true.
People are weird, I have my family, my pets, and a few friends I’ve kept or made over the years who are real but it’s taken decades. Good luck, be yourself and it will happen.
