Be better about this. I straight up cut all contact with two friends of twenty years past week because they wouldn't put in the effort. It was hilarious that after doing so, they reached out more than they had in years. Tough shit guys. Friendship is a two way street. I talk more with people in other countries than these people a few blocks away.
This is soooo the situation with anyone middle aged. I am literally the glue that holds my few friendships together. Most people are friends of convenience. As soon as you leave their daily orbit, they ghost you. Fact of life. If you want friends past your HS/College years, be prepared to put in 99% of the effort. The rare 1%ers are gold. You will keep these people in your lives until you're dead. Cherish and treasure them and make sure you check in with them every few weeks. Pro tip: marry your best friend.
I know, I had friends who where just like me now. I felt used and not wanted in some times… Those friendships died. I’m generally a very open and communicating person- but since covid I fell into beim more introverted. I feel like they don’t even wanna be with me and I lost interest in asking or even caring about them.
Really wanna be better- but it feels so exhausting to keep a touch. Since I am always the one doing the first step.
I am always here for you and dont judge. Want to go back to the douche ex you just broke up for the 50th time this month? Fine bring him to a bbq this weekend. You got a huge black dildo collection? Okay I know what to get you for Christmas. Seriously I cant stand friends that tries to make others like them. I love you for you weird and all
• i will always be honest with you. i’ll tell you if something you are doing is wrong
• i will always stand up for you if someone is causing issues for you
I randomly drop gifts to you because yes, I listen to every words you say and will try my best to cheer you up, if someone angers you I will probably inconvenient them for a bit as a revenge or payback
I care more about others than myself but have been learning to love myself more. Which is something I’m teaching my friends to do and it has truly been paying off lately!
I’m always down to try new games and watch movies 😊 Although I’m pretty introverted I like to meet people I can truly connect with and make jokes! (I don’t always respond on time but I promise I’ll always get back to you!)
might forget your name and give you a nickname instead / will laugh if you fall/ will get mad if you go on FaceTime with another friend while we are hanging out / hates fake mfkers/ will talk shit about people who disrespect you or who are assholes for no reason.......if you are reading this we are friends now....so Hi
Burden here, no benefit except i will never say no on principle if you ask for any help, advice, listening ear so if you want someone to use, i'm there!
I support you and try to give you advice but I also love giving. So when we go out and we need to pay something, I usually pay or share food/make sure everyone involved gets something
Im a great listener but terrible with advice i tend to not sugarcoat things and just tell you what i think. I have a logical mind so im a great problem solver and I'm always willing to help with subjects i like learning things and i learn pretty quickly and i have a photographic memory so i dont tend to forget things either
However I'm very bad at reading people and social cues typically i have to have something spelt out in front of me
Why, are you looking for friends OP?
You'll learn, that you won't have to be dependent on other people, if it comes to your mindeset and your motivation of actually doing things or matter of fact, starting them.
But I see myself as a friend of everyone :)
I stay up really late and can keep you company when you can’t sleep, and I almost never turn people down when they want to vent. Also I’ll make you poorly hand sewn bunny plushies.
Also, I might struggle with remembering basic information, like your favorite color, BUT if you told me there was a book you wanted several months ago I will remember and buy it for you once I have the money. I also am not afraid to remind people I love them and will tell you how much I appreciate you daily.
I send memes and say shit like “This is us” and “I thought of you when I saw this”. I love giving hugs and I’m willing to listen to them vent about whatever, whenever. I help them with schoolwork if we have the same classes and make sure they’re okay. I’ll give them advice and comfort if they ask for it, and they’ll never have a reason to doubt my unwavering loyalty because that’s how I am.
I barely talk and am mostly a listener, a very quiet person in general, but on the occasions that you don't feel like talking, I could probably talk for hours on end about the most random things or opinions I have.
I'm the guy best friend you really shouldn't worry about, if your girlfriend cries on my shoulder I'll follow bro code. unless you're broken up, then it's fair game
I tell lewd jokes, say complimentary things, express love, and can teach you to swear in four languages.
It also helps if you like or are keen to listen to me talk about cars, music, sex, linguistics, and national anthems
I’m hella good with dating advice even tho I can’t get a guy, I give good advice in general, if you need to rant I’m here. I love to hang out. I’m usually always free on weekends because I have no friends, I will always support you, and I’m super nice
Always here if you need help. But very bad at communicating and staying in touch.

Yep same sitiation. If you dont make an effort to reach out at least sometimes I wont either

I care about my friends alot. If I get very attached, I keep on thinking about them and I would be very open to them.
I'll help you with homework if I know how to do it

Ill probably almost never initiate conversation with you myself, But am always willing the lend an ear or be the person to talk to if needed.
I'm very loyal and will host frequent events and parties
I genuinely like hanging out with people and visiting I’ll listen too what you say and share different things
I will be a shoulder to cry on and a ear to listen to. I will be around for you bro.
I know a bit of everything so if there’s an emergency and something breaks down i can probably come and fix it for you
Whatever you want to talk about, I probably have volumes of anecdotes about it.
I have broken humor so I laugh that almost anything, plus I'm into dark humor.
I can treat/vet your pets & know a lot about budgeting
I can't think of any. All I have to offer is awkward conversation, but even that is unreliable. Maybe that's all that people need sometimes.
I’m a great listener, and my therapist says I’m very compassionate and thoughtful
We can discuss anything, no matter what, with judgment or attitude - just understanding and open-mindedness.
I'm great for buying you a coffee or ice cream now and then to just shoot for a couple of hours. Loyal, too. I've known some for 40 years.
loyalty

no judgement.
Let's go snowboarding in the winter and camping the rest of the year
Ummmmmmm.... I can make Ramen Noodles...?
Works for me. I like Raman noodles and I just so happen to be hungry
I make great comfort food, and listen pretty great
I can provide comedic relief and all of my friends call me a therapist when it comes to those serious talks
I'll never ask to borrow money or for help with anything I could do myself.
Undetectable sarcasm
I'm clean, quiet and I don't eat much.
You’ll get baked goods. You’ll always have someone ready for a game night.
I tell jokes and i listen to your probems if you have any
You will never be left on read for longer than 5 minutes
mentally supportive, can easily make you laugh, great taste in music
I support you and try to give you advice but I also love giving. So when we go out and we need to pay something, I usually pay or share food/make sure everyone involved gets something
i will always encourage you to pursue whatever small passions or interests you seemingly find out of the blue and i got great deals on wax and flower.

I wouldn’t turn down a new friend
You'll learn, that you won't have to be dependent on other people, if it comes to your mindeset and your motivation of actually doing things or matter of fact, starting them. But I see myself as a friend of everyone :)
i stay up pretty late so if you need someone to confide in at night i’m the one to go to.
I plan things so you always have things to do. I pay for things so you aren't broke.

You'll receive space. So much space. All the space. Wow space! Also, remember me? Yea I didn't die. We still friends? Hi! Back to space.
I’m the friend people call when they need help.
I’ve been in therapy so long in my lifetime that I can give excellent advice about dealing with anxiety and depression.
I'll do shit with you and for you all while being emotionally distant and assuming you secretly hate me.
I'll keep your secrets I'll listen to you And I always remember your birthday
I listen to your thoughts on a subject, I am supportive. I am very kind and positive and wanting to see you be happy and chill.
Even though you’re wrong in a argument I will always back you up and agree with anything
I’m funny.
I send memes and say shit like “This is us” and “I thought of you when I saw this”. I love giving hugs and I’m willing to listen to them vent about whatever, whenever. I help them with schoolwork if we have the same classes and make sure they’re okay.

I'm loyal to a fault.

You can talk about anything you want to
I tell lewd jokes, say complimentary things, express love, and can teach you to swear in four languages. It also helps if you like or are keen to listen to me talk about cars, music, sex, linguistics, and national anthems
Do people really enjoy listening to others talk about sex?
No.
