I had a friendship end badly a few months ago. We had been friends for years, but slowly our friendship deteriorated and we would constantly have fights. All of them were started by her and they were pointless. Stuff lik...... reply
I had to move a lot as a kid and lost the value of friendship normally I would just move away but for the past couple of years I’ve formed relationships with people and opened up to them but now I’m going to have to pack everything up in a couple of months and say good bye to them I don’t really know what to do except distance myself now so t...... reply
i put up a bubbly and social act around other people but i’m naturally shy and introverted. so when people get to know me, they get the wrong impression because i switch from “omg!! let’s be friends! let’s hug pls hold my hand!!!” to “please do not interact with me.” it’s not like i try to be cold however i’m avoidant due to trust...... reply
I'm never the one ending these friendships though,
but I guess I kind of am to blame.
I don't talk, no, I can't, because I'll go silent once faced with social situatons and I'll freak out inside my head like, "Speak, damnit" and "Oh shit, oh shit" or "What do I do, WHAT DO I DO" for example, if someone asked me a question or wanted me to say somet...... reply
Do you feel this when you are around them or just in your groupchat? You must understand that their are some substance in a persons attitude that is not reflected in most chatting application. Furthermore, chatting could never replace a physical conversation (at least for me).
I have been there. I am a recent college graduate. I was the VP of a sc...... reply
This happened to me and my best friend too. We started to drift apart when she made new friends, and it became awkward overtime as I tried to maintain my friendship with her when she had other people who I did not connect well with. Although our stories are different, the end result is the same: We are both drifting away from friends who we were cl...... 1 reply
I have can somewhat understand how your feeling. I have a bestfriend who I always hanged out with. Then when she made more friends who she has a better connection with I sort of felt left out. We tried hanging out but we just kept on drifting further away. I love hanging out with her but I never know what to say and it sort of becomes awkward. (I t...... 1 reply
Maybe be honest and tell them how you feel. Friends should be understanding and try their best to make sure that everyone is feeling included and cared about. See what they say/how they respond and that should help you decide if you feel like a friendship with them is worth working on or if you no longer feel that way. 1 reply
so, i isolated myself from a group of friends. they're really good people, and i don't exactly dislike them, but i feel like shit and start having second thoughts whenever i spend time with them. i feel like i'm ignored but i know that's not true because what i say in the groupchat doesn't make sense to them or they just don't know what to say; and i feel really crappy whenever that happens. i don't feel a connection anymore and i just kinda drifted away. what do i do? i really don't know anymore and it's making me confused and bedridden. i feel like i'm just being overdramatic but then again it's been going on for a while. i haven't talked to them in a few months now.
