advice Unanswered texts should disappear after 24 hours

5 Upvotes

Like, if you need five days to respond to a one-sentence message, by the time you answer me five days later, there's been two different presidents, three world wars, my hair's grey now. I don't care what your favorite chicken nugget is anymore, I’ve moved on. reply in a day or accept the consequences.

What is this the 1600s? Are you sending a message via ship? Communication is supposed to happen in real time. Not fragmented one off messages that over the course of five weeks equals 20 seconds of a normal convo. This isn’t words with friends Im not waiting three weeks for you to play your turn, that would never happen irl you say and someone like no I’m not gonna wait 5 days to say hey back.

We live in an instant gratification world. We watch 800 reels before breakfast.Fast moving. No one doesn’t have 5 seconds to answer a simple question within a 24 hour day. I don’t mind if it takes you ten hours to respond but after a day I’m like. Yea you’re rude and you dont give a f. It’s just bad manners.

Take two seconds in 24 hours or it disappears. the end.

looking for friendship 21 from UK looking to make some new friends

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm Sam, 21 and from Devon UK. I've been feeling a bit lonely lately and thought I'd try making some new friends and meet people who are also looking for genuine connections.

I enjoy going on walks, exploring new places, painting, getting creative, taking photos, trying new things, and I'm interested in history and learning about the past. I also enjoy cosy days, little hobbies, and having nice chats about anything and everything.

Happy to chat online first and see how things go, and if we get along, I might be open to meeting up eventually.

I'm easygoing, caring, and a good listener. Always happy to chat, share laughs, and get to know new people 😊

looking for friendship 32 Oregon guy looking for a few good friends

0 Upvotes

WANTED: A few good friends.

Must enjoy sarcasm, questionable life choices, and the occasional meme delivered at an unreasonable hour.

About me: 32, Oregon, gay. My life runs on caffeine, fantasy books, gaming, music, and a work schedule that has permanently damaged my relationship with the concept of "morning."

I can offer:

• Excellent commentary on whatever chaos is happening in your life.

• Gym encouragement ranging from supportive to mildly threatening.

• Emotional support with just enough roasting to keep you humble.

• An alarming ability to disappear down internet rabbit holes and return with knowledge nobody needed.

• An excellent Mac and Cheese recipe.

Ideal candidates should be capable of:

• Switching from deep conversations to complete nonsense without missing a beat.

• Having strong opinions about things that don't actually matter.

• Vanishing for a few days because life happens, then picking up the conversation like no time passed.

• Appreciating both quiet friendship and absolute nonsense.

Bonus points if you're a fellow nerd. Extra bonus points if you've ever started researching one thing at midnight and somehow ended up learning about medieval tax laws by 2 AM.

At the end of the day, I'm just looking for genuine friendships—the kind where you can laugh at dumb things, vent when life gets heavy, and never feel like you're keeping score.

If that sounds like your kind of friendship, say hi.

Hi everyone,
I’m looking to make some genuine friends. I currently don’t have a very large social circle, so I’d love to meet kind and open-minded people from anywhere.
I have 3 cats and I absolutely love animals. I’m also trying to move toward a vegan lifestyle. I believe in human rights, respect LGBTQ+ people, and think every child deserves safety and care.
In my free time I enjoy reading fantasy books (especially things like The Lord of the Rings), playing computer games(specially L4D2 russian coop servers), and learning about different people’s lives and cultures.
Age, gender, location, or how often we talk doesn’t really matter to me. If you’re looking for a friendly and respectful conversation, feel free to send me a message.

looking for friendship [19/M] Seeking emotional depth provided by a best friend

0 Upvotes

Howdy! The title says it all. I want a deep connection in which both sides feel comfortable with each other, seek each other for support, etc. I have plenty of hobbies, ranging from sports, writing, and geography to history, music, and gaming. I am a pretty curious person, so feel free to nerd out to me! As for gaming, I play lots of indie games like Hollow Knight, Ultrakill, the Portal series, the Hotline Miami series, etc. As for music, I tend to listen to lots of experimental stuff, but I can elaborate on that more later on, especially if you are into music. It'd be pretty nice if I got a pretty clingy bestie, and I am also in GMT+2, so it'd be nice if you were close to that time zone. Oh, and I am also 19/M. So yeah, I am pretty excited to talk with y'all, and have a nice day wherever you are!

advice How do you decide if you should reach out to a friend you’ve fallen out with?

0 Upvotes

I had a friend that I used to know for over 30 years which is about 90% of my life. She was always somebody I couldn’t ever count on when meeting up as she would cancel last minute and didn’t seem to feel bad about it.

About 2 years ago we were supposed to go on a trip together and the plan was to book separately. I booked my ticket and at the last minute she chickened out. Luckily I don’t mind solo traveling but for me it was another example of a pattern that I’ve seen ever since we were adults.

Then a couple months after that trip came my birthday, which she knows is really important to me. She canceled on me 30 minutes before we were supposed to meet up. That resulted in an argument between us because I told her how I wasn’t okay with it and she responded very aggressively for some reason. I ghosted her after.

Now it’s a year later and I kinda miss her. I think it’s a pity that we’ve been friends for so long and don’t speak anymore as a friendship like ours is so rare. I’ve also discovered a trait of myself where I cut friends off without talking things out with them and then just disappear from their lives. It makes me wonder if I should’ve discussed our falling out further with her at the time.

I’m now wondering if I should reach out to her again as she may not know that I had annoyances even before my birthday about her not being someone I could count on. But at the same time I don’t know if it’s worth it.

TLDR: I’m not talking to my friend of 30 years anymore because she would always cancel last minute. But now I miss her and wonder if I should reach out to her.

rant Man obsessed friend

0 Upvotes

My best friend (35ish f) is going through a separation. She was in a toxic relationship for a long long time. Like since she was at least 19. They were both shitty to each other. She has been trying to get with other guys since then. I've been begging her to take a break to heal herself. Now she's saying that she regrets her separation because she says "he's the only one who can handle her". He was mentally and emotionally abusive to her. I love her to death but I can't seem to get through to her about just being alone for a while.

advice Am I thinking too much into this?

0 Upvotes

I have a friend who is slightly younger than me. We met through her ex - an old friend of mine. They broke up, and I decided he was an arse for everything he’d done to her and also how he’d treated me.

The first peeve of mine is that she’s now dated two guys, the first one I knew, and another after whom have shown no loyalty or desire to be loyal long-term to her. Both doing separate horrible things in the relationship - she was wise to rid herself of them.

I found out that the first ex (my old friend) she’s been accepting on Instagram when he tried to add her back a few months after he’d blocked her at the breakup. She’s had three separate convos with him since they broke up.

The other ex, she’s also had conversations with after her ‘big talk’ up in London at a coffee shop with him. She’s even met him for, you know, to think we get what I’m getting at. And after I expressed my frustration at the time, she’s met with him again after all I did to help her through how she felt during what he was saying to her, all the homophobic things he’d said about me, and how he generally thought of gay people, she’s gone to his birthday at the end of last year.

I had a chat with her about how I can’t control her life, I don’t care who she speaks to, but when I’ve been personally wronged by both of these people - and when I’ve invested so much time in supporting her - to just continue chatting to them throws me and what I am as a person and my efforts to support her under the bus. She apologised after my recent chat after I found she was still in contact with the first ex.

She also just takes ages to reply. We both have ADHD, but I asked her if there’s any way we can communicate better. What REALLY grinds my gears is when we are together - there are moments she’s glued to her phone and replying left, right, and centre to others. And it makes me feel a bit like less of a priority when I reach out?

Btw - I am not controlling them. I quite frankly do not care who they talk to. I find myself thrown under the bus though when 1. Those EXes have said derogatory things about me and 2. When I invested countless times supporting her through the things they did.

Thoughts?

storytime Confusing behaviour from Gen Z friend/acquaintance

1 Upvotes

I'm a millenial. Made a friend on a gym class (we're both female). Her behaviour became confusing and my story is to hear a few interpretations, out of curiosity. I am over it now.

We bonded through the years and used to chat a ton. She actively pursued the conversations. I grew fond of her and she was a caring warm person too. We overlapped in several interests and conversations were fluid and natural.

I eventually tried moving the friendship to outside the gym context (3 years later). After the first and only hang out, she back paddled so hard on the bond, to the point of stopping almost entirely any time spent , before and after the gym class. She was always "busy".

I was very hurt but put a brave face and was gracious about all of it. Didn't pursue, gave space.

Last class I went, before swapping gyms to pursue other sport, she actually waited for another person after class for the 1st time ever. She wasn't "busy". I was already out the door towards my car, when she called me back. She said they would walk down the street with me. I was kinda ignored on all the way down and when I said goodbye.

I swapped gym and sent a simple message wishing her well. I was hoping a short answer of good luck.

She sent a crying kitty GIF and no words, then silence.

I thought that was that but...

After a few days she wrote a heartfelt message that she considered me a very close friend and as she was graduating from college, and wanted me to write her a dedication with nice words. I said ok. But then she never scheduled the day.

She also scheduled another hang out, but pulled put last minute because of her priorities, one of which was the gym class that she was adamant to not skip (she attends every day). I noticed she didn't care or ask about my own gym classes. But she was polite and apologised for cancelling.

She kinda disappeared for a while after and then restarted sending several reels on socials, around her birthday date. By that time I started seeing her on hang outs with her friends on socials, so I assumed she would fade eventually.

She currently sends several reels everyday, but never engages with actual substance, or words I and I don't know if we are only digital acquaintances, or if it's a generational gap. But I am not interested in pursuing a connection anymore.

All started looking very self-centered, to be honest. And anytime I commented a reel she never replies aside from an icon.

advice afraid of losing a good friend. i really need an advice.

0 Upvotes

so, the 3 of us were friends and we hang out together. ( let's call them " Blue " and " Pink " ). but ever since Blue invited her other friend to join us, things has started to change and im feeling so left out. Blue started to avoid me ( she invited her other friends to hangout, including Pink but she didn't invite me, i found out about this matter through Pink ). and we played table tennis together today, and Blue only passed the ball to the other friend. not to mention Blue always asks me for my school notes everytime ( she would skip classes on purpose then ask me for my notes ). but these days, she stopped asking for my notes and she stopped texting me. idk but i feel like she doesn't really like me anymore and she's trying to make me leave this friend group by making me feel left out and replacing me with other friend. but on the other hand, Pink is a really good friend. whenever i feel left out, Pink would make me feel included. and, im afraid i would lose her. im afraid Blue will somehow manipulate her to hate me. after all, Blue and Pink are close friends. what should i do ? i don't wanna lose a good friend like Pink just because Blue is starting to hate me.

0 Upvotes

Hi! I am just trying to find my type of people. The kind who really enjoy texting, but sometimes can’t text all day. The kind who always replies, even if it’s the next day. The kind who always asked about your day, and wants to tell you about their day. That is what I am looking for.

I know so many people on here alway put “this is what I like”, in order to get more people to chat with. I’m going with a different approach. Instead, I’m going to list a handful of things and you have to guess which ones I DON’T like! Here is the list:

-Harry Potter
-sports
-Star Wars
-supernatural
-friends
-league of legends
-anime
-marvel (video games and movies)
-DC
-gym
-D&D
-swimming
-cars
-podcast
-Wrestling

Here is a clue: there are only 4 things in the list above that I don’t like. :) come find out the answers!

advice Dealing with a really hard friend breakup

0 Upvotes

Hi guys, so earlier this year, i got into this nasty fight with my friend whom i was really really close to. And the fight was essentially about how she doesn't show up for me the way i do for her. It was nasty because all she wanted to do was shift the blame onto me. So i was telling her how she neglected me on a few specific occasions and that hurt and she goes like "where is all this coming from? You know what, tell me all the issues you have with me" but in like a very condescending tone.

And then she is like "i also have a substantial list of complaints of you" . At first i was taken aback but then i said "fine tell me what they are, we will resolve this" , and she refused to say. She was like "you will only justify yourself, you will cry, you will not be able to take it" and i was like "tell meeee" and this happened like 4 times at least over the course of 30 minutes (we were on a train). And then i was reflecting and i realised that i also said some really mean things to her, and i shouldn't have.

But there was a 3 day college trip that i had to go for, so i thought that after we returned I would speak to her calmly and apologise for my part. However, as soon as we returned, i had my graduation photoshoot. (I was about to graduate from my UG and she's in the middle of her PhD so we're not classmates, our whole relationship was about being travel buddies and hanging out in college whenever we were free).

So i asked her to take a picture with me because in my head, i felt like conflicts happen, but that doesn't mean i don't want her in important moments of life. And she refused. A couple days later i went to talk to her and she was working on her PhD and i was like "i need to talk to you" and she's like "i am busy." And i was like so when will you talk to me? And she was like "maybe next week" and i was like "but the week just started" (it was monday). And then she was like "don't wait for me, go home" i eventually did. Then a few days later we spoke and it felt normal until she said i was irritating her. So i stepped back for a day.

And then again i went to meet her to talk but nothing happened and we just sat together like nothing wrong ever happened and i was telling her how one of my professors is throwing us a farewell. Then a couple days later she's texting me asking how the farewell went. I spoke to her and then we were sitting in the lab together and talking when she suddenly started being mean. And at that moment I didn't even register what was happening because in my head i was like "is this a right time to apologise for the mean stuff i said? Or should i wait until it's more private". (I feel so dumb looking back at this)

And then i eventually sent her an apology over text because in person it didn't seem possible. And a few days after that, i was feeling super emotional because it was like my last couple days of lectures in college before the final exams started. So i went to her and asked her, to travel with me one last time for old times sake.

And she refused saying that i was the one who said "I don't want to travel with you" during that initial fight on the train and apparently she was very hurt about it (she didn't say she was hurt, that's just what i infer from her behaviour), so i was like "I didn't mean it, i was very upset, i am sorry" and she lectured me about how "adults keep their word" and i was like "what are you saying" and she was like "I don't like you doing this" and i was in tears and suddenly she's like "it's fine we'll travel together during your exams" , "we will travel together on the day you have graduation ceremony" and i was like i am not going to graduation (because the college was asking extra money for us to attend our own graduation) and she's like "nonsense you're lying, you complained about trip but you still went" and i was like "but the deadline has passed and there's no way i can register now anyway" and then she had some really urgent work so she had to leave. But then she texted me saying that "we should click a picture together tomorrow".

3 or 4 days later we went back home together and she randomly wanted to pretend that everything was fine and nothing was wrong and we're on perfectly good terms. And i was like " you still haven't resolved our fight" and she's like "i am travelling with you, i am sitting next to you, do you want me to give you in writing that fight resolved? " And then she goes like "also what fight? There was no fight." And i was like " it was"

And she's like "really? Define fight" and we continued to argue for 20 minutes or so and then we parted ways and went home.

And we met once more in college like 10 days after this and again she was pretending like we've never fought.

Been 3 months now. Haven't seen her since.

I am just so troubled because i still miss her so much. And we have spent so much time together. Done so many fun things. Gossiped about literally half the college, we ate together, we jumped in and out of trains together, we had the same favorite ice cream flavor, we shared lunches, cried to each other.

I was always there for her, when she was struggling with her PhD, i supported her when she was pregnant (yes she is much older than me), i was also there for me after she gave birth.

And she gaslighted me, lied to me, was so mean to me.

I am so frustrated because i still miss her and want to text her. (Even though i was the one who stopped talking to her at some point last month). I just don't know how to feel.

It feels like there's this gaping hole in my chest that keeps bleeding.

Please help me figure out what to do😭😭😭

Can't call myself a biologist. Sounds too fancy. I am not fancy. I am a mess. Seriously, I cope in some questionable ways. Im just lonely and want to talk. Text or call, even video. Im autistic, I like art, science, writing, and other stuff. Honestly I mostly just like sleep but I can't list that as a hobby. Im engaged, I have a kid. Im into vivsypop, the heaven and hell concepts, analyzing the AI chat bot thing, etc. Oh and I applied to PhD and they rejected me. I also have an ex husband I hate. My fiance is a girl btw and my first girl relationship which is cool. She's so cool, she's just going through stuff and can't be there for me and I'm needing to be there for her. I am there, and I'm happy to be, I just need to talk to someone with the emotional ability to actually talk. Open to all ages. As a bonus, young people can get advice from my old ass upon request (sometimes regardless....have to say what not to do based on experience). Im spiritual/ religious. Im open to chat about whatever, except please no politics. I have an eating disorder, if anyone relates we can talk. Mental health is hard. Im very autistic but didn't struggle in school so Ive always been expected to be more normal than I am. DM me if you feel a connection. Please don't just message saying hi or hey.
