Anyone else here consistently worried about losing their friends? Especially college friends. I care about them all and yet I feel like a bunch of us are drifting away from each other. I’ve also lost previous friends in dumb circumstances, been ghosted, and was stabbed in the back by my roommate/friend who couldn’t stand me and just left without warning me or talking things out. Is there something wrong with me? Why do people that end up getting close with me end up leaving?

      i am terrible at communicating and it’s not at all that i don’t care about my friends! reach out and ask how much they would like to keep in contact and ask honestly if they struggle with texting and meeting up. My fatigue gets in the way massively for what i can do and i wouldn’t want any of my friends to think it was there fault.

      People are just horrific communicators! I’ve met so many people that have made me feel like something was wrong with _me_, when in reality, they just felt uncomfortable being straight up! Relationships are hard, and you’ll learn overtime that the real ones are never fragile :) a lot of people just aren’t ready for the reality of communication and expressing themselves in order to hold onto good people in their lives. So, they ghost potentially amazing, loyal, genuine friends over trivial reasons. And they seek validation by backstabbing people who otherwise would never do that to them! Sometimes, they just don’t feel that ‘click’, when they somehow feel like they’re supposed to! People are terrified of being real, since sometimes real means a lot of work. I’ve been a bad friend before, and I’ve realized that _I_ was the one who was really missing out in the end. I put a lot more effort into being honest with my friends now. I promise, it’s not personal. It’s immaturity! You’re more mature rn, and it’s gonna be lonely til you meet someone as emotionally considerate as you are.
