Why is it so hard to find true friends in Los Angeles?

I think I am a very genuine person that likes to have fun, and be silly, and lend a shoulder to cry on if ever needed. But for some reason people are drawn away from me...either by my looks...my personality...i don't get it. I think I'm quite humble as well...people see a pretty girl and already think she's conceited...and on top of that, I have a serious manner...but can be very fun and outgoing. I have achieved my goal to become an RN...but still cant achieve the goal of having true friends to turn to in good times or bad.

    I find the same too, so it's not just in LA! It is never easy to find true friends, people are too quick to judge us and then can't see past that. It's a shame but there are other genuine people out there too, it's just being in the right place at the right time. I have two true friends now, don't need anymore than that really, unless you meet more along the way.

    See a superstar; glass a cocktail on a beach club at sunset; wear a couple of designer sneakers in an ultra-luxurious shop in Beverly Hills; perform at Universal Studios Hollywood theme park, explore world-class museums, or dance the night time out in a starlet-filled club…..this are only someof the things you might find in Los Angeles, learn this city with hotelbye . Los Angeles is the California's liveliest city; could be the activity capital of America, with megastar electricity and nonstop activities. Hollywood could be the most-see attractions in Los Angeles. That place attracts an incredible number of visitors each year who travel there to pay for gratitude to their favorite stars and maybe even find a glimpse of a few famous personalities. And sometimes they are happy!

    The answer- people are so fake out there and friends are disposable. Its hard to make it out there and fierce competition to become a true friend is a real turn off since people do not want a needy friend. Its a dog eat dog mentality out there. Good luck in your studies- I am a nurse - so it must be hard for you to gather a circle of friends to help you achieve your goal. Stay focused and worry about yourself and not others. Trust me of this...

    LA is a different part of the country LOL! I have spoke with people that live there and they said that the majority of the people there have some serious attitudes, not all of them, but the majority.

    It sounds like you have the same kind of personality I have. I live in Arizona and when I lived in a more rural town, I made lots of friends, people just loved me, they thought I was great. I worked in a small convenience store and I was always getting little gifts and people would invite me over to their houses and all sorts of things.

    I live in a more busier part of town now, I still make friends , but it seems like people are all to busy with their lives and their families to be true friends. In my work place, I have many true friends. I love going to work because I get to be with my friends and have fun with them. LOL! It's like going to school all over again. We hang out after work and things.

    You should maybe think about moving to another state or living in a more rural part of California. California is a beautiful state, but I don't hear too many good things about LA

    Yeah I believe you, i'm initially from Pittsburgh, been residing in l. a. on and stale for the previous 8 years... nonetheless am continually happy to be back homestead in Pittsburgh. I merely guess the place ever you have been born and talked approximately as house is the bar you learn different cities to. particular l. a. has plenty to do and notice, yet i've got yet to be in a city it rather is as "comfortable" as Pittsburgh. merely diverse lifestyle and way of doing issues.

    I have heard this allot, and after allot of research, I have found that most of these un-desirable are from "out of state". If you want to meet some "real people" drop me a line...I have incredible friends.

    Hope this helps.
