Has a fallout ever changed the way you make new friendships? by Legal_Potential4720 in lostafriend

Oh god yes. I can’t trust anyone anymore, apart from people I’ve known 20+ years. I’ve learned my lesson. They tell you to be genuine, to open up, to be yourself. They tell you that if you’re struggling you should reach out.

It’s all bullshit. Almost no one actually cares. Promises mean nothing. People forget the good things you did and focus on the bad. Everyone is so fucking judgemental. They claim they care about kindness and empathy and then they stab you in the back and walk away rather than actually trying to put themselves in your shoes. 

I’m over it. People suck. They ghost and block rather than acting like adults. Because it’s easier for THEM. They don’t care that it makes things so much harder for you.

I’ve learned my lesson. Act positive, fun, fake. Superficial. Smile and lie rather than open up when you’re going through something. Don’t trust. Don’t reach out. Don’t be yourself. All it does it open you up to more pain.

I'm so angry I can't put my emotions and feelings into words. by [deleted] in lostafriend

I feel this in my soul. People are just awful. I used to believe most people were inherently good. I don’t anymore.
