Hi Rhonin

Welcome to Beyond Blue.  

Human beings are strange creatures.  The more you give, the more they think you are a dud.

There is nothing wrong with you but I advise self preservation.  If your kindness is not reciprocated after one attempt, then don't continue.  You have your girlfriend and why not do couple activities.  Besides you are studying for a better future, your future.  This is what matters, not those people who don't care about you.   Friendship is two way street and happens naturally, not forced.  Remember, self preservation and you won't get hurt that much.
