Have i ruined my friend ship or am i over reacting?

Have i ruined my friend ship or am i over reacting?

Hi everyone i honestly don't know where ive gone wrong in my friendships.

So it started out that i moved to a new horse aggistment place and was there for a while and made some friends that had the same interests as me so that was good. One specific friend was the one who helped me abit through a tough patch with my anxiety. Ive recently moved paddocks and now they hardley talk to me. When i send a message it takes them a day or so to get back to me and when they do its very blunt or nothing to run off to continuea conversation. When i ask aome advice as they have had anxiety before and as they are older than me they have a bit more experience than me ao i thought id ask them but they pretty much shut me out and im sure they think im.annoying. recently one of my friends horses got hurt so i offerred to go down to help as they were really worried. But she just said another friend was coming but i was talking to the same friend that was suppose to be coming but she couldn't get there foe another two hours.

They seem to leave me out of conversations too. I thought despite moving paddocks we could still be friends but im.starting to second guess it now 😞 😞

Is there anyone who can give me some advice on what to do or if maybe im over reacting?

@Former-Member - she didn't contact you for the whole month. It's not up to me to say what you should or shouldn't do. It's for you to decide what type of friendship you want.

@Former-Member. It's very hard when we feel lonely and our friendships aren't offering what we need. I've felt that pain before. And it's a confusing time.
Are there people at the new paddock that you might like to get to know?

yeah its very difficult.

no not really everybody sticks to themselves and not many are really there at the same time as me either so i dont really talk to anyone there.

@Former-Member. I remember when my sister was a teenager & had a horse. The horse paddock was a real social area. But they were all teenagers. Probably easier to make friends at that age.

Yeah my younger sister has teenage friends when we go there.

@Former-Member. My younger sister has always found it easy to make friends.
Me, I only have a few, but they are people whoI trust.

Yeah i always seem to have trouble making friends as well. The people that are around me are those whom i trust however ive had a few incident that make me not trust family anymore and my friends i can't really trust as i told them something and said please dont tell this certain person as i wanted tp tell them and today i was talking to that certain person and i found out that both the people i asked not to say anything did. That was like a trust betrayal. And now i dont know what to do
