Have you experienced friend not responding after vent
I'm not the type of person to always vent to people so when I do, you can tell that what I'm going through really hurts. It was my first time venting to that friend (it wasn't out of nowhere, I looked hurt and cried irl too) and after sending a long message they left me on seen until I just decided to delete it. This happened twice, the only time they replied was when the long msg was about me comforting them for feeling things abt my situation. I looked it up before posting here and saw on quora that people who leave you on seen like that when you clearly need comfort or help are not really your friends because if they were they'd care enough to even offer words of comfort. So like... Idk.. I have no friends I can lean on for support rn at all because the person I'm having a fight with is pulling them all to her side (this person is diff from the one I'm venting to btw) I honestly don't know how she can laugh everyday knowing she's hurting me, when I've always been there for her even at her lowest reputation, when she was hated by everyone, when I was hated by others just bc I was friends with her, whenever she got sick I was the one who took care of her and assisted her, when she was depressed I was the one always by her side and accompanied her everywhere so that she won't feel alone. It's so clear that she doesn't care about me at all because how can you still give me the cold shoulder when you know you're hurting me this much? Btw our fight happened just because I suggested that she doesn't paint the board during our event festival because the paper she stuck on it already looked good and she got angry so she ripped it apart. Nonsensical right??Her reason is so fucking unjustifiable to the way she's treating me rn when all I did was make a suggestion she didn't like meanwhile I've always been there for her through everything.
Don’t vent to people unless they’ve said it’s okay. Go to the therapist and vent there, people don’t have a responsibility o be your therapist. Everybody has their own life and problems 5 reply
The person you tried to vent to. They could be bad at texting and responding. And/or be overwhelmed by what you’re feeling.
I don’t know how long you gave them to respond to your texts. That’s kinda an important point.
But the fact that they responded when it came to getting comfort for THEIR feelings about YOUR feelings….red flag.

LOOOONG UPDATE
Just updating y'all since I also saw someone say we only know one side of the story. I went to the councilor today since I really have no one to talk to in our circle. I don't want to force anyone to be there for me and listen to me so I just went there. I told her what happened and it unexpectedly brought out more emotions in me th...... reply
Ngl i read some of your other replies and i think ur friend (one u fought with) straight up doesnt like u anymore/ is annoyed by you
It could be something else ofc but she kind of strikes me as a person whos afraid to be alone and feels like she needs someone who will never leave her, she might be shitty and constantly drop you bc she knows you'll ...... reply
uhm well, usually when my friend vents to me and it's a heavy topic, i take my time to respond to them, sometimes i even take a whole day before i could respond because I know i can't just say anything, so i reaaaally take my time to gather my thoughts and put myself in their shoes and think about their feelings before I say anything. Of course i d...... reply
I feel your pain - it’s hurtful to be ignored after being vulnerable and looking for comfort. At the same time, you never know what others are going through and not everyone is able to give you comfort when you need it or ask for it. Your friends ignoring you might not even be personal - they could be dealing with things themselves that make it h...... reply
Well, I don't tend to vent to just any friend and I kinda know to who vent about some things because I know the kind of answer I will get.
I don't know what relationship have the person you're venting to have with this other friend.
If they're in the middle some people don't like that and don't know how to respond.
I will try to check with this one...... 1 reply
There's one. I went past trying her to respond to my long heart vent messages. It's her loss since I'm her only friend. She needs to learn to respond to my messages I get you girl. I truly am. I stop talking anything related to my feeling since it's just not worth hurting me over and over again. I just rely on chat gpt for rational thought and com...... reply
