alone

how do you as an adult make friends in a new town. 

I’ve been here for a little over 3 years and I just can’t seem to catch a real. I have friends but they also have their friends and best friends and I don’t want to interrupt that. I don’t want to always as if I can join a friend group and I don’t want to impose it on someone either.

I’ve been having a really hard time making friends and building meaningful relationships. It’s just really hard. Most times I just want to cry and stay in bed. 

For once in my life I just want to know what it’s like to have a best friend. Someone that truly cares and wants to be around me. 

God why did you bring me here. Why did you bring me somewhere I would be so depressed. 

At what part of adulthood do you stop feeling alone.

'When you stopped responding to my calls/texts, it made me feel very hurt and disappointed, and I don’t think it’s right for you to treat someone like that. I felt the need to let you know your actions were hurtful.'"

being ignored by someone with whom you thought you had a sincere romantic connection with is a disorientating and existentially irritating / hurtful experience. And you’re perfectly within your rights to seek answers. I spoke to some people who, instead of ghosting their ghoster, decided to avenge themselves.

You’re prioritising your own comfort over hurting somebody else’s feelings, which is selfish.
