sounds pathetic but

[modern oyster]

I just want to be someone’s favourite person for once, it feels like my online friends are just bored of me now

I hate always being first to message someone and then I look like a complete moron when they don’t answer and I get so embarrassed that I don’t talk to them for ages sometimes even a month

[flint jungle]

that isnt pathetic. maybe you just havent found the right people yet

im sorry that all of that happened

[modern oyster]

Thanks, it just sucks so much because I’ve known them for almost four years

[flint jungle]

that's interesting because most of the time my friendships last only 3 years

[modern oyster]

Really? A lot of the people I’m friends with are really sweet but we don’t talk that much sometimes

[flint jungle]

yeah its weird

[flint jungle]

why dont you and your friends talk that much?

[modern oyster]

I guess they’re just focused on school or whatev, they have bfs and gfs too
It gets lonely sometimes and we don’t live in the same place one of them lives in America

[flint jungle]

that really sucks. is there anything i can do?

[modern oyster]

I don’t think so but thank you for listening, I really appreciate it. Usually I’m the one comforting other people

[flint jungle]

of course

[dapper abyss]

Honestly I feel this. With most of my friends, I’m the one who reaches out first. They almost always respond but i wish they would reach out first. Wish I had someone that would reach out to me first.

I mean I guess I found someone that did that for a while but that’s a whole story

[modern oyster]

Exactly it would be nice to have someone who reaches out first

It makes me feel so bad when they don’t respond

[modern oyster]

Same

[dapper abyss]

Same. It’s especially hard when you enjoy talking to them

[dapper abyss]

When that person stopped talking as much it hurt a lot

[modern oyster]

For me it was someone I was in a relationship with, we broke up and now we don’t talk anymore because they blocked me 😐

[modern oyster]

Exactly how I feel

[dapper abyss]

We never dated but the friendship felt different than most other ones I’ve had. At least to me it felt special

[modern oyster]

Yeah it really sucks. None of my friends ever message me first

[forest nova]

I feel the same way. Everybody chooses someone else before me. I am always the second choice. But if you don’t talk to them because they never messege you it’s their fualt not yours.

[modern oyster]

Thank you, I definitely relate to the “being the second choice” part
