You should be loyal to people, they might also be afraid to show their interest in the stuff you like. But don't stick to them "no matter what". That can bring you into dark places.

Enforcing boundaries helps, talking about things helps, but sucking it up and abandoning people seemingly willy-nilly will leave you alone and angsty pretty fast. So will just taking everything from an asshole.

I don't have an answer to finding friends yet. Try going to social stuff about the things you like. If you have stuff you deliberately hide then try not to go to those things first, as the shame might make you lash out at potential friends. Wait till you can come to terms with yourself.

This is actually inspirational, but the point of the post is, that you are on terms with yourself, but you know they won't respect you.
