Unhappy with my friends-turned-roommates...

I decided recently to start ignoring them more, because my constant attempts to
give them attention went unappreciated and it just felt weird. I have trouble
ignoring people, so I decided to try doing it purposefully. It feels cold, but
it definitely helps with always being distracted by others when I'm busy doing
something.

I'm at the point though where I don't really have the desire to try with them.
In a way, I don't think it's worth it. They'll never be emotionally available or
be the kind of people _I_ want them to be. And that would be fine and we could
be friends, IF they were interested in me at all. They're never really
encouraging though. If they ever pay attention to my interests, it always sounds
really disingenuine, half-assed, and monotone. And they don't really like
talking about emotional or personal stuff either, so it's like what are we even
gonna do if we _are_ friends? They really don't seem interested. And ... /sigh,
I don't want to put nails in any coffins, but I think I'm just about there. Not
interested. :( It's sad and I don't want it to be this way but I'm not sure what
else to do.

I could just treat them as... people I do projects with... I guess... /sigh
That's so empty though.

One of my roommates describes himself as someone who doesn't just give out how
he feels or what he's thinking; he wants others to ask him about it. And ok,
fair, I mean I can start the conversation. What I can't do is constantly drag
your problems out of you. You're putting so much of the emotional workload on me
doing that. It's impossible. So like, even if he wants to talk about stuff, he's
presented himself in a way that is massively discouraging. I can't imagine
trying to support someone who says they're my friend but is also extremely cagey
about all of their feelings.

Any tips?
