People who don't know what they are doing TRY to manifest to make themselves happy, to be sure. Because they are ignorant of the fact that happiness is an emotion and cannot possibly come from outside one's self.
The real purpose of the law of attraction is to learn to receive for the sake of sharing. If it's all about you, eventually you will have to pay the karmic piper.

i know all in life is fleeting. And i understand that having a partner or friends won't make be the ultimate cure to my happiness. People leave, things change etc. But does that mean i should just sit at home then and never want to be friends with anyone because of this?

You have to be happy already for those things to come into your life, Vee. Do you think friends and partners will ever look at a depressed, bummed person? They will run the other way. Fast. The happiness comes from within you. Never ever ever from outside sources. Don't make the mistake of thinking that if I get A, I can finally be happy. It just doesn't work that way.

And i know pleading is desperation but i don't know what else to do. I've waited for so long and it feels like the universe is not on my side. Can't i just open myself up to the universe and ask for help sometimes?

It all comes from within you. Ask yourself for help. God is not "out there" like we were erroneously led to belive for the last 2000 years. God is you, inside you, your soul, it all comes from inside you. You have cultivated a field inside your soul using seeds of negativity, loneliness and depression. Why are you surprised you are harvesting a crop made up of negativity, loneliness and depression?

It's a catch 22. For example A child is born into a negative environment (this isn't me just an example) so they'll have negative thoughts and attract more negative things into there life because of this. And it's a trap because to attract positive things you need to be already positive. But if a few positive things happened to this person from outside themselves maybe they could latch onto this and keep the flow.

Welcome to the paradox. Emotion is the language of the law of attraction. It only knows one thing: to give. If you speak "depressed" to it, it says "oh she wants depressed!" and it gives you things that correspond to depressed. If you speak "happy" to it, it says: "Oh she wants happy!" and it gives you things that correspond to "happy."
Why don't you forget about the law of attraction until you are able to use it from the proper mindset? You need to cure your depression and you simply cannot use the law of attraction that way. It's like trying to use a hammer to pull a splinter from a baby's finger. Wrong tool for your problem.
People can ask for help with depression. But ask a professional human. Not a power that feeds directly off your emotions and only knows to give you more of that emotion.
You are walking a dangerous path. Please, seek help.
