@Insomniac100 so you never felt like that person was special? or felt a bond with that person.
@SW-User i did but later found a lot of the trust/brotherhood we had was superficial and my group of friends, particularly my best friend of 8 years made me feel pushed aside for the most part for other ambitions and motives . There was no real bond and if there was it was short lived.i guess im still a little bitter but it sorta sucks when someone you considered a brother for a long time turned out to be someone else

i had that happened to me too. i had a mexican friend for 10 years do that same thing to me. during the senior year of hs. he just turned cold and pushed me and my family away. use to be so close. he was the one that got me into long distance running. use to go to church with him and his family. i wasnt a partier and he went that route and seen me and my brother as lesser beings. that hurt a lot. sad part is i still think and care about the guy. i still think about those past times.
@SW-User yep i feel you. id honestly rather have him pull me aside and straight up tell me he didnt want to hang out and didnt see me as a close friend anymore. But a cold shoulder here and there mixed with superficial kindness conveniently during the time where my life was completely falling apart was putting salt on the wound...it is what it is and ill just take it as a lesson in the future.

i had a good online friend met 3 years ago. she got me out of a dark depression. cared a lot about her. she was living a double life. a good girl she portrayed but a bad girls she was. she got mad at me when i started to see her true colors. asking her why she liked being sexually harassed. why she liked talking dirty to sick sleezy men and hang around pedos. she even sex chatted her self in front of everyone else who was online. i didnt understand her lifestyle choice or why she was doing that. she pushed away because she didnt want drama. lost someoen who i had a lot in common with and who i cared about because of what she was doing with her life. she brought me huge trust issues with people online.
