Its somewhat liberating to realize that the only constant, the only person that you can truly rely on is yourself. The more you expect from others, the more opportunities they have to disappoint you. Expect nothing from others, expect everything from yourself.
That doesn't mean you have to not be giving or nice to others - I try (or expect myself, if you will) to treat others as I wish to be treated, even if that treatment isn't always reciprocated. Should they expect it? Probably not, because I'm sure I've failed at times as well. But I'm convinced that if people expected more of themselves rather than expecting so much of others, that really the world would be a better place. I dunno, just my 2 cents worth...

There's a difference between shutting everyone out and choosing to only rely on yourself, and truely not having anyone to rely on.
Yes you leave less room to be disappointed when you rely on others, but more room to be disappointed by yourself. Really depends on what affects you more, how others treat you, or how you treat yourself. Then again, what happens when you realize that sometimes, you just can't even rely on yourself to give you the basic needs you need to survive? It's good to rely on yourself, but keep others there for backup just incase. Of course I'm a hypocrite ;]

jovi, you've been going to raves for what 2 and half years now, and you just finally realized that almost all raver friends are shallow fucks who would just as soon sell you out for a point of crystal as they would be there for you?
you're born alone and you die alone, im lucky i have some people i can count on to be there when i need em to be. im sure you do too, it just seems as you are slightly over dramatic. cyberdog knows what he is talking about, take his advice he always seems to have thoughtfull and wise advice to give. Don't expect much from other people and you'll never be disappointed. Remeber that most of the times you can only count on yourself to deal with the matter.

there's a difference between realizing all you truly have is yourself, and denying what you truly have.
i bet you have a family. who you probably hate because you're blissfully treading in teen angst. don't worry, you'll love them and remember you "have" them when you're self-sufficient enough not to depend on them for keeping you alive. i bet you have a vibrator. and as long as you use the batteries most hospitals and search & rescue teams use, you can always depend on it. and i bet you have a friend who will still give you a hug, even after all the neglect they take from you.

It is a strange moment to look up and see only yourself - though you may have extended your self to many others in friendship you will have this moment we all have it ~ But what to do with it? Others here have ssaid that it is liberating, i agreee independence is liberating but being alone doesn't mean you are independent _ others say open your eyes wider adn see those who seem on the outside of your circle, okay we all want to know that we have family and friends.....
I ithnk for me it was a moment to make hard decisions about where i wnted my life to go - Though i felt alone, i opened my eyes and i did still have a family, i did still friends it just felt like they weren't there - So i made the effort to reconnect...not out of desperation , i still wouldn't call just anyone - And i made tough choices to give up friendships that were constanly letting me down - people that had become poisonous - friendships are a give and take realtionship and if they are only takers and rarely givers..then good-bye. That doesn't mean you have to hate them and it doesn't mean you have to rip up pictures are stop loving them or their memories it just means they can not play an active role in your future. I do not know you, or what has happened. But I know from this and other message boards that there are people out there who care about you - the real you whoever that is. rediscover yourself and those who have always been there - don't be afraid to let go and don't be surprised if you feel the need to mourn a lost friendship - smile, no one else can make you happy take a wlk and remember what you have and don't forget the age old addage "you're worth it' Jingles
