Kinda heartbroken

i know how you feel reached out to a old teacher from highschool.

told her i needed to talk to someone told her about my dad who died 8 years ago. & my moms poor health.

i thought she would understand as i know she lost her dad even younger then me & she is only 5 years older then me.

she did not seem to care people are monsters.

i have always try to be nice to people in life its to the point i'm not going to try any more

A lot of people drop you when they think you might need something from them. Nobody in my real life cared I have cancer. I'm sorry for what you're going through and for the disappointment. Sending hugs.

Some people 😕. Sorry that happened to you. Told a buddy about mine and right after I answered his question of what kind of friend I needed him to be during this time, he flat out stopped all communication. Some just can’t handle that weight. I get it. But it still stings quite a bit.

You suffered from cancer? 🥺What happened?

I'm so sorry - it'll hurt, you are exposing a part of yourself intimate and vulnerable, and they don't know how to respond, which is sadly normal, but only leaves you feeling more alone, isolated and misunderstood. People sometimes feel they should have answers in help instead of just seeing being compassionate and empathetic can offer so much more. The silent nudges, hugs, words can give so much more.

It's pretty easy to give a hug, supportive words, but it's not so easy to be empathetic. Yet, often people don't even see give a hug.

I suppose some people don't have great communication skills. But even then, that's rude.

Even people you have met in real life will do that for you. People who are not genuinely interested in you either as a friend, family or lover don't care about your trauma, or the things you've gone through or your life in general. They normally only care about what they're going to get out of the conversation

my prayers are going out for you right now

So sorry to hear that.

Maybe they didn't know what to say

I'm sorry to hear this. I'm sure it's frightening to say the least. I hope you are surrounded by caring people for support and that you beat this. 🤗

Some folks are just not ready to handle anyone's depths. It's a show of either shallowness or unavailability. You deserve a response for that, always.

They’re probably just shocked and really don’t know what to say. Would be better if they at least said that much, but it’s probably not malicious.

That’s terrible. Things like this show you who your real friends are! 🤗

That would be...not a very NICE person. Sorry they treated you that way.

They might not know how to resond to you so just chose not to. Yea some people are weird

Maybe they need time to think about how to respond?

Sorry to hear that
