Losing and/or offending the people I love and care for, or even the people around me.
Up till a few years ago, I was an outcast. I had little to no friends, I was bullied, I was that weird kid in class.
I am much more successful at maintaining relations with the people around me now. But given the scarcity of true friends around me when I was younger, combined with a yearning for approval because I wanted friends, and I thought that showing off my capabilities would attract people to me. Little did I know, it did exactly the opposite.
And because I had little friends but have a mostly extroverted character, I felt like I had to cling very tightly to friends that I had. I felt that if someone took long to reply to my texts, they did not want me. I became paranoid that if I said something and got left on read, I may have offended someone. I became oversensitive to such things, even when there was no reason to.
Sure, sometimes I have said the wrong things or used the wrong tone, but ultimately losing friends and loved ones, is a part of how we grow and mature. It was never meant to be an easy process.
I had very little friends, yet I have lost at least a few extremely close friends due to either my own fault or no fault of my own. This is why I value friendship so much and often overdo it when it comes to getting emotionally involved with my friendships and acquaintanceships, even here on G@G. As a result, I fear offending and losing them, because the emotional aspect means that it hurts to lose them.20 Reply

Failure at 20? I mean yes failing is a normal part of life. Its a stepping stone but just because you failed at something that doesn't mean you're not going to succeed. You're not even close to having a midlife crisis just yet. Value your youth and explore!
