    Hi I'm bi and seem to have a really hard time making/keeping friends. My problem is that I almost always develop feelings for my friends. Male or Female. I have a small group who I've never thought of that way, but other than them, I can't help seeing all new people as potential partners, or wondering what their feeling toward me is. Just wondering if anyone has a similar situation?

    I've been here before and it happens with therapists too it's called transference and you may be transferring your feelings onto these people what about each of them is similar? Is it a certain type or just everyone?

    I guess it's only new people I feel comfortable with and can talk to easily. I'll have to look up transference.
