What makes a person being good or bad?

I don't have friends. I wonder if the reason is that appart from my anxiety, it is because I am a bad person.

All the people I have been knowing during all my life always stop talking to me, maybe it's because the nature of life, maybe it's because I am not good enough for them.

I can feel guilty for these failed relationships.

Bad person, imo: Hurts innocent people/animals. People may react to you like that because of your inability to empathize with them or because of lack of knowledge of their needs. Try with more people and see if the pattern is repeated. If so, correct.

Making and keeping friends has absolutely nothing to do with morality.

It's about social skills, confidence, being outgoing--stuff like that.

I know a paroled murderer who killed his wife in a lake with friends. Don't listen to any statements that you must "deserve" or "bring it on yourself"; people are just scared when they can't control life.

The logic is:
If bad people get bad things
And good people get good things
If I am good and not bad, I will get good and not bad things


Read about the Just World Fallacy sometime, especially the results on rape and crime victims.
