[QUOTE="Deleted member 52, post: 28235"] We’ve known each other for years now Our relationship has been on and off, to be fair. We’ve not talked for half the time we knew each other, but also talked a lot. Interestingly, he removed me recently. It’s not that we fought, we last talked around a month ago It doesn’t affect me too much. I’m generally not that sentimental with such things, and we both became very different people as time passed. I’m mostly just curious about why he did it. As I said, we didn’t fight, and didn’t talk about anything for a while. He used to hold me in high regard before too, complimented me frequently and whatnot. Seemed to view us as close. It could be one of two things, some moralfag arc, or perhaps trying to leave the internet. Or maybe something else, I don’t know. He became much more of a normie as time passed, and you guys know how I am, so there’s a good chance he just viewed me as a loser It mostly just got me thinking though, about friendships. It’s weird how temporary mine have been. Of course, most have been online, I don’t socialize irl. The last time I socialized was in high school, and I haven’t kept in touch with my high school acquaintances (actually, I purposely cut them off) [USER=9]@PointOfNoReturn[/USER] and me have been friends for quite a while now. Almost 3 years, I think? We don’t talk nearly as much as we used to, for a period we would talk everyday. Besides him, I don’t have any long time friendships now. I’ve drifted apart from everyone I knew. This isn’t something to lament, honestly, it feels cathartic. I’m not sure how to describe the feeling exactly to other people, but it feels freeing in a way. The guy who cut me off, we were originally part of a larger group and alienated most people in it, till it just ended up being the two of us. Then he later unadded me. For some reason, to me, it’s comforting to me that the group and everything about it is gone. Can people relate? rotting on the internet has made me meet countless people, and all of those countless people I’ve drifted apart from. I can’t entirely say it’s not my fault though. To be fair, I’ve had limited interactions in a lot of these friendships and “ghosted” people a lot (unintentionally) Bit of a long winded rant, just wanted to express thoughts somewhere.
