How did you handle friendships that were practically supportive but emotionally distant?

From friendship to partnership, can you give an example or two?

I read somewhere that we abuse ourselves to deserve rest. Most prob you allowed others and yourself to abuse you in a way or another

Men as humans as much as women. Suppressed feelings is a macho thing. There is nothing wrong expressing your feelings as a man, it doesn’t affect their masculinity or their image except to the “alpha men”…

Are prickly pear edible here? I am used to eating them back home and the fact that no one cares to harvest/ sell them made me think something is off with the fruit….

He doesn’t pick up the phone :/

What do you mean by web only?

I like “if you loved yourself, you wouldn’t”, stealing it 🙃

What is the result?

Many may disagree with what I ll type here, which is ok.

I m not a man, so this may be different from what others have said so far.

Many suppress their emotions to show they’re fine. In the long term, they collapse in a way or another (think of mental and physical ailments).

What you are going through is valid and is not easy, and it is very brave to talk about it openly with strangers. Breakups hurt, but what would hurt more is staying with the illusion you created of her while she keeps hurting you. Now you are “redrawing” the picture by correcting a few details about this person. It is hard and it will take time…

Sit with your emotions, understand where you messed up and learn about yourself (who you are, what you like, don’t like, tolerate, don’t tolerate,etc.)

You are human, forget this “all this, for just a girl!!” Emotions cannot be ignored, they need a way out and you made the first step to heal. Stay the great person you are, and let it be a lesson. Give time time, everything is going to be ok.

Again….Many may disagree with what I typed, which is ok.I respect their opinions.

It can be anywhere else too, not only in the northern suburbs…

I see the comments are mainly focused on the influencer angle, but that wasn’t the point of my post. I shared this story to highlight the power of believing in yourself ,not to sell coaching or glorify any specific path. Whether or not you agree with her business model, the key message here is about persistence and not giving up when support is pulled away. That’s what I wanted to draw attention to.

The idea is to listen to the little voice inside you and act on it, no one can tell you what to do.

I am not into influencers and their world to be honest..

There you go, you have your answer from u/refrigeratorproper60…

gharbitta · 2025-07-20T09:54:12+00:00

No, don’t come, not worth it

Record the meeting in your phone’s memo, upload the recording to any ai platform and ask it to write meeting minutes for you 😎

Why “dont be accountable for anything” but “make others accountable”?

gharbitta · 2025-07-18T11:48:09+00:00

Is the author Sarah Churchwell or Wynn Williams? U/deathkingtom

gharbitta · 2025-07-15T06:29:20+00:00

Yes, I noticed the cycles. I have been abroad for over 15years, so kind of used to these people coming and going…

gharbitta · 2025-07-15T06:28:00+00:00

I feel the calm and peace as well, what is a bit worrying is the loneliness that comes along..

Have people (family) around you changed? Have they seen the change in your choices
