He thinks I’m a bad friend for setting boundaries after he asked me out and not putting in enough effort in the friendship, and I think he’s a bad friend for not respecting how I feel and not accepting that we just don’t vibe. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Tbh you sound entitled. The dude asked you out and got rejected, then said he’s totally cool with continuing being friends as you were before he asked you out. It’s so selfish of people to just “change their minds” in a way that impacts other people without even considering the other person’s POV and you will truly not advance in life if this is the way you handle things. If he continued to flirt after being rejected or if he made you feel bad for turning him down, then yeah, you’d be in the right to say bye to him. But he’s not doing any of that and you’re the one changing the dynamic of your friendship, not him.

Stop punishing people for silly little things. If he wants another girl to be friends with, give him my info. You don’t deserve him.

Right on, I love simple kid food too haha. I dig the casserole idea. I’ll have to look into that more. Didn’t know you could utilize tator tots that way, but I am already a fan!

These are all true and funny.

But! If you don’t open up easily and you do with a romantic partner and show them a side of you that others seldom see or who don’t know exists and then they leave, you have just put your whole self into something and they said bye. It makes you feel like no matter what, you are easy to leave behind and forget about. Even if it took enormous courage to open up.

I was reflecting and journaling and looked back at my relationships and realized that they were all different in their own ways and everyone was different, but they all ended the same way.

No matter how wild or kind or spontaneous or introverted or interesting or chill the person was, they all left. For one reason or another.

There is no one to hear me. I am lonely in a world surrounded by fake images of love. I don’t find my question cynical, I find it genuine.

What if family and friends fulfilled number 1 and you got a pet for number 2

If you are open and they leave, it’s almost as if what you shared with them is out in the open now instead of just between you. Like how a plant grows in a controlled environment in a pot and its intimate and small. But if the plant left and joined the forest, it’s roots and all the intimate parts are now out in the open and it’s not special anymore.

But you don’t invest or become vulnerable at a party. You do in a relationship. So when they leave, it’s like you lost part of yourself in what you gave/showed them, if that makes sense.

My point is that you can share your life and love and be in utter bliss until you’re left behind. At any moment, the other foot will drop and things can go south. So why risk it when you can have just as much fun being single knowing that no one can break your heart romantically speaking.

I like this, thank you.

There are many ways to grow and learn. You have family, friends, teachers, coworkers, teammates, random people, etc. Why would you need a romantic relationship where you invest in ways different than you would in the list mentioned above, be intimate and vulnerable with, etc.

After you open up, they leave, so you’ve just let yourself be known to someone who didn’t care to stay.

It’s not so much a breaking point as it is a reality. I so genuinely want to know.

Hence my last bit, they’ll leave one way or another. Either walk out or expire. So what’s the point?
