I'm losing faith in humanity..help!

Asked by MissAnthrope (21511points) January 4th, 2010 from iPhone

No matter where I go, I feel like I’m surrounded by crazy people. I have my own quirks and am not perfect by any means, but I’m the most even-keeled, reasonable person I know.

I’ve been in close quarters with family since Christmas and everyone is nuts to some degree. Now the cousin that offered to host my mom and 10-year-old sister for their year here has turned cold as ice and, seemingly out of the blue, has told them they have to find another place to live. This cousin helped make it possible for me to move back to CA; she has a sweet side, but I have picked up on her cold, bitchy side.. So while it freaks me out, I’m not totally surprised at the current turn of events.

I feel like I can’t count on anybody. When I think I’ve met someone cool, they end up being crazy, unreliable, etc. I feel like I’m the only sane person on the planet. It scares and depresses me. I don’t know why it’s so hard to meet normal people. Can you offer any words of wisdom?
