It's not easy to make real friends in this environment....

@SmoothKnight Thank you for your kind compassion.

It is. And it’s something we have to make our hearts ready for.

Whether it involves romantic feelings or just trusting friendship, the attachment can form. And that’s what makes it sad when it ends, whether it’s by mutual agreement or one party just decided the friendship/communication is no longer for them.
@Mindful
Thanks for BC.
I hope you find the healing you need.
And later on, hope you find friends who choose to stay.

That social media at its finest
BrandNewMan · 61-69, M
Sounds familiar ..
Mindful · 56-60, F
@BrandNewMan as in... it's happened to you too?
The first real "crush" I've had on here in years ruined that shit in a heartbeat and now I don't know how to feel. I was so excited feeling that spark too. I get it.


Maybe there's a chance at reconciliation?
@Mindful yes, fairly recently. Lol. Every time I try to give it time to redeem it just 😔

Do you think things can be worked out with you guys? If you were excited, it means they may have been worth knowing. Or is it DONE done?
Mindful · 56-60, F
@DancingStarGoddess it's weird. I wouldn't say it was a crush but definitely friendly daily exchange. I'm married so he may just be disinterested because of that. The same for the other. He was just a friend too (because I'm very married) it was just friendly exchange. And suddenly there was upsetting drama here with someone else and so he's done with SW, and well that means he's done with me too. I don't think it's anything I've said or actually done. But it was very nice to have.... online friends...that seemed mutually interested in just friendship. But nothing beats a crush. I have to go now to be part of real life but it was nice sharing with you! Xoxoxo
@Mindful I understand and hope that there are some more interactions of the like for you. It's nice to just have that connection with someone sometimes even if it's just an enjoyable friendship. I'm sorry they had to go. Nice sharing with you also!
It can be difficult here sometimes, I'm sorry

only a very few have stuck by me and I them, everyone else seems..fleeting

Lost how ?
Mindful · 56-60, F
@Coltron zero responses
Coltron · 22-25, M
@Mindful though they died ,maybe they did
Mindful · 56-60, F
@Coltron maybe I should change my post description?
I’m really sorry you’ve experienced it, unfortunately many people come to find that out. Which is why after walking down that path a time or three, I keep relationships around here quite casual, including very limited DMing. I just don’t have the emotional bandwidth for it anymore.
Mindful · 56-60, F
@OlderSometimesWiser I normally do the same. I normally avoid DM.s. For that same reason. But this time I guess I needed some healing. Now I need a different type of healing. That's just how it goes. Thanks for sharing
@Mindful The only thing I would add in this particular case is that people who say they’re done with SW oftentimes aren’t done with SW.
Mindful · 56-60, F
@OlderSometimesWiser hahaha, that can be true. I hope SW continues to be a healing resource for those who need it-- with or without me in the picture of course. Ultimately, getting better or getting thru things is what we all hope for. At least that's what I'm here for, passing thru time
WillaKissing · 61-69, M
Sorry, but that is the way of life. The people we see right now may not be here tomorrow.
Mindful · 56-60, F
@WillaKissing sadly it's true. I was just feeling happier ... and now I just have to accept it
WillaKissing · 61-69, M
@Mindful Sorry! Life is cruel.🤗💐
Mindful · 56-60, F
@WillaKissing thank you! Yes, we live and are promised cruel blessings

People run through each other here

I know what you are saying. So far, I have kept one of the several I made here. For me, it's either they think I want something when I reach out in kindness or, being a male, they assume I'll eventually be a pervert so they are cold the whole time.
Mindful · 56-60, F
@WanderingHelplessly 🫂 you're so welcome. At some point you might tell him, "dude, I work really hard to be a decent person to work with ..." maybe if it ever feels right to say that...
WanderingHelplessly · 51-55, M
@Mindful I will, and I will add that I do it to make his job easier.

Unfortunately that happens online
Ghosting is the worst
Nothing you can do but move on
Mindful · 56-60, F
@pdockal Thank you for commenting
It happens. They are probably back with a different profile or something. Perhaps they’re just busy. Sorry hun.
Coltron · 22-25, M
@Mindful how were they lied to
Mindful · 56-60, F
@Coltron from what I understand one person pretended to be single but they were married. Another person said the user had multiple profiles.
yup, it's shocking how fast people can pivot from Jekyll to Hyde, or how delusional / psycho they can become over time about the reality of your intteractions / non-interactions

all words, no matter how emphatic, are ultimately meaningless on this site. it's better to not interact with anyone at all
Mindful · 56-60, F
@BlueGreenGreyyeah, I just needed to express my remorse ... this site is my lifeline sometimes and every one has a right to make their own choices... I just wasn't enough for someone else for whatever reason. I hope they found value during the time I was a part of their life, as I found value from them being part of my life even if that time was short lived. I have to see the best of it. Because that's all I have/had.
