Why is it so hard to tell somebody that you need them?
For example if I want a friend to come along with me to do something or go some place. Instead of telling them straight up "I want to go do _____ with you" or especially "I'd really like it if you could go with me", I'd always try to convince them that it'd be fun from their standpoint like "come on dude you'll have fun, and plus, they've got free food", or "hey it's not like you're doing anything else tonight. You can only be a little boy once you know".
Or sometimes I make up an excuse so that it sounds like I need them to go with me as a favor, "I can't focus when I'm studying alone; i got no self control and I need somebody to supervise me".
Other times I'd even blurt out things that are mean: "all of my other friends (that's a lie - i have no other friends) are busy, that's why I'm asking you". -- ANYTHING but admitting that I really want that person's company. I have no clue why I do that. it really baffles me
