Zaan_13 Bracelet King	1 year, 3 months ago by Zaan_13 Okay I have 2 rants abt (ex?) friends sorry if they're long 😅😅 So the first friend was like my absolute best friend throughout uni, although I defo put her on a pedestal the entire time while I was just a regular friend to her. It never bothered me much though bc we were still p close and had fun. Last year we had our grad ceremony and we met up etc and it was like old times but after that day I literally never heard from her even though I messaged her a few times, including for her bday which she completely ignored and I have 0 idea why 😭😭 idk if she got mad bc our friend group got a group pic without her but it wasn't intentional as she'd already left? In any case they all liked her far more than they did me so 😮‍💨 The friend was p close to me as well even though we'd literally take monthsss to msg one another lol. After a night out (in 2017) she picked up my (fave) hoodie bc I'd left it somewhere so the entire time I'm like ok hold onto it but whenever we'd make plans we'd both forget abt the hoodie but still np since ik it's safe. So during the pandemic I told her goodbye as I was moving and then I never replied to her afterwards and I didn't reach out really bc I had nothing to talk abt so it was gonna be really one-sided yk. But again for graduation last year I reached out to her and said I'd love to meet up and she never replied 😭 but I'm gonna be visiting again soon and I really want that hoodie back from her. Seriously just thinking of asking her for the hoodie and I'll pay her for shipping so she can mail it out to me 🥲
Hylia224 Bracelet King	1 year, 3 months ago by Hylia224 K so like idk if it's good or bad or just kind of eh yk? My friends from church...we'll call them K and S...are like right around the same age (younger than me by like a couple years and public schoolers. I'm homeschooled btw so I'm fairly sheltered lol) and they FLIRT ALL THE TIME. I even told K like, "quit flirting, it's getting bizarre" and she's like "I'm not flirting!" Then goes about chasing him because idek. And last week they sat all huddled up on a table talking about who knows what but they kept scooching closer and closer... Idk if I'm just jealous (probably. I liked S for a while but dropped it when he got all flirty with K because it makes more sense for THEM to be together than me and him) or like I feel left out (possibly. They throw out all these references to nonsense and I don't get it because I'm protected from said nonsense but K pull this face and nods and laughs weird and S pulls a face and sits there) but K acts way different when it's me and her and not all 3 of us (I haven't hung out with S since this whole thing started so idk if he's different or not. I suppose he flirted like once or twice with me before he got to know K better. But they just click better) Ik it's kind of a lot but now I feel better lol 😅
Moogle Bracelet King	1 year, 3 months ago by Moogle I'm introverted and can have social anxiety sometimes, especially if I'm alone with someone I don't know very well yet. I had an acquaintance that I had really only hung out with in group settings, and she invited me and my partner out for a double date. It turned out neither of our partners could make it, so it was going to be just us two. Usually in that situation I would have come up with an excuse not to go, but I was genuinely interested in becoming closer friends. I had heard the advice that if you want to foster a good friendship, being open about how you feel is important. So against my instinct I was open woth her about how I struggle with social anxiety especially 1-on-1 and asked if we could go another time when more people could join. After that she completely ghosted me. Never messaged again, or invited me or my partner to any more group events even though we had been in the same social group for years.
xdarkfirex Bracelet King	1 year, 3 months ago by xdarkfirex @Moogle ohmigosh im so sorry that happened to you! I empathize with your entire situation. Idk how else to phrase this without it sounding weird, but I’m sort of proud of you for putting yourself out there? And I guess I’d like to reassure you that you did the right thing because (assuming there was no other reason behind the ghosting other than it being intentional) now you know that person was probably not gonna be a good friend anyway Sorry if this response is not really meant for this forum topic, but reading that made me so sad because I know I’d be beating myself up for the rest of eternity if that had happened to me. I guess similar stuff has happened actually, which is why I no longer make or have friendships

Moogle Bracelet King	1 year, 3 months ago by Moogle @xdarkfirex Thank you so much for your kind words! And you're right, I did feel really bad and beat myself up for a while after that. But also like you said, I came to realize after a while that being open and honest is the right thing and there's nothing wrong with that. I'm really sorry you've had to go through similar things, it really sucks! It's been a while since the whole thing happened and looking back, it feels pretty crappy of her to react that way to someone who is struggling but still trying to put themselves out there. I would have liked to talk it out with her in case she took me the wrong way or something, but she literally never talked to me again after I told her about my anxiety.
humanbean Skiller	1 year, 3 months ago by humanbean There’s this girls I’ll call Fand one of my friends sister is besties with hers and same with their mums so they pretty much have to be friends and she sits with us at lunch but she’s acc really annoying but it’s not like we can cut here off and I think I’m gonna have to share a room on the schools ski trip with her which is HORRIBLE bc it costs like £1000 and she’s totally ruin it but if I say no I’ll feel really bad for her bc I don’t think she has any other friends going
Penguins24 Bracelet King	1 year ago by Penguins24 This is pretty sad but I liked this one boy for a while but we only did this one thing together for one week of the year…and like 2 months ago so saw he has a gf on his insta…I mean I can’t be mad because it’s not like he knew but still…
Hylia224 Bracelet King	1 year ago by Hylia224 Lol I have another one that is older than K and S (which, update, turned out to be nothing. I'm now closer with K and S is kind of sliding out of the picture. Not in a mean way. Just in the "we won't let a boy come between us" teen movie way. I kind of called her out on it at some point this summer and she denied it and has been more subtle since then. Which I understand because before K and S really knew each other, I heard my parents suspect I had a crush on him and so became more subtle too, even though that's just how I am with people my age since I'm not a social being and I maaaay have been flirting? Idek) Anyways! So I knew this guy in dance (C) and he's also homeschooled so he acts a little like my younger brother, just that mindset and stuff, except a little older. I was convinced he had a crush on me (I have a tendency to do that and have done that with literally every boy that's been in my dance class. I've always suspected at least one has a crush on me since I have absolutely no experience with anything) amd so I just went with it like ok I'll live my life and if you're in it too, cool beans. But I had this dream. Where we absolutely made out. And it changed my whole mentality on him. I was dying, daydreaming about if that would actually happen, praying for more dreams like it, PLANNING OUR MAKEOUT SESSION BACKSTAGE AT THE SHOW, (YEAH what the heck dude), stewing on that crush over an entire summer, hoping I would bump into him and make out....this was a year ago and looking back on my journal entries, I'm so humiliated. So we came back to dance in the fall and it's like the crush disintegrated. Like I actually saw him and it's like God put a gentle hand on my shoulder and shook His head and directed me to my passions. It was freaking weird. I still have um interesting dreams occasionally but who doesn't. They usually don't involve C though. Sometimes it's S (which kickstarts THAT for some time) or sometimes it's an absolute made up guy that is a combination of a guy I saw at the gym and Link from Legend of Zelda (because cough he's cute cough cough) So yeah. I'm not sad or mad about it or anything. He was just my first crush and it was weird and I kinda needed to share it (: Thanks for reading I guess!
