00:00If you are kind but struggle to maintain friendships, you may display these traits.

00:06You can be the most caring person in the room and still watch friendships fade away.

00:10This instinctively feels wrong.

00:12We expect generous, thoughtful people to have thriving social lives.

00:16But many caring individuals struggle to maintain close friendships because specific well-meaning behaviors create distance.

00:23Your best traits work against you.

00:25Deep empathy comes across as overwhelming concern.

00:28Generosity feels like guilt-inducing pressure.

00:31Loyalty seems like possessiveness.

00:33You don't need to become less caring, just channel it better.

00:37Yale researchers found that constantly accommodating others increases distress and contributes to relationship dysfunction.

00:43People-pleasers experience compassion fatigue and build resentment without expressing it.

00:48When someone always gives but never receives, relationships become unbalanced.

00:53By listening but rarely sharing your own problems, you block connections.

00:58Friends want to offer reciprocal support.

01:01Three patterns damage relationships.

01:03Unreliability, which signals low priority.

01:06Constant negativity, which drains energy.

01:08And poor boundaries, leading to burnout and decreased respect.

01:12Modern texting makes overthinking worse.

01:15People with social anxiety perceive friendships as worse than they are.
