So awkward when someone calls me their friend when they're not mine 😬

I mean, they're not my enemy either, but you know... We're not friends! Acquaintances, if anything. But barely that when we don't ever chat and rarely even converse through comments. I could see if we had each other added, but we don't. They may have me added, but I'm not really interested in adding them back. Nothing personal, of course, it's only because we don't connect very well. 🤷‍♀️

What makes it so awkward is I don't know how to say any of that without coming off like a jerk. 😥 Shit, I'm sure I could explain it as nicely as you possibly could and they'd still be hurt. Which I wouldn't understand either when, again, we rarely interact at all. Like, why would that hurt your feelings when we're so obviously not friends? And then that'd make me feel like an even bigger jerk... 😓

It's a no-win situation. 😔

Omg Ducky. This is off topic, but I hearted exactly one of your comments and look what happened to my feed. 😂


Anyways, some people can’t be pleased. It’s best to not worry about them. The win in your situation is to put yourself first!

@Reject Yeah, that’s happened with me too with this damned algorithm. 😂

And yes, definitely. Thank you!

Then there's those who I was friends with, but we've drifted apart. It's sad, but that just is what it is. 😔 I've said this plenty of times before, but people change over time. Sometimes they stick together with those they've befriended, sometimes they grow apart from one another. I'm thankful if we can at least remain acquainted even if we barely interact anymore. 🤗 And at least they didn't turn out like so many former "friends" of mine, who I now want nothing to do with...
