I Need Emotional Intimacy

I feel emotionally bankrupt at the moment.

To top off a whole lot of sadness and chaos happening in my life at the moment, I recently somehow inadvertently lost a very special friendship.

But that's life, right? People come and go. I'm a stayer and I thought they were too.

Life goes on. And as much in my sorrow I don't want to believe it, I take hope in the knowledge that at some stage the universe will replace this friendship with another. Until then...

Aww 🤗. It happens all to often online
Friends just up and disssapear one day . I’ve found this has happened a lot . Even after a couple years of friendship. I’ve learned not to take it personal anymore . I guess they get busy with real life.. etc

The universe will do something even better. You will have a different friendship. The one you lost will remain irreplaceable in your heart.
@proteus 🙏🏼

I found the hardest thing to learn in life was simply that people come and go, and that I had to be whole and intact in and of myself. Some people seem to get that instinctively but the rest of us learn the hard way.
@Rambler that is so true, and it is something I am beginning to learn. It’s just hard when in this world friendship treasures are few and far to find - it’s hard to reconcile the loss.

@SarcasmInSydney Yes, and taking the losses doesn't get easier, it's just that it helps to understand that it's an ebb and flow.

I am a stayer too until somebody pushes me away, then I leave giving them what they wish.
@therighttothink50 I can't say I fully agree with that sentiment, but each to their own. Thanks for commenting.
hope you're doing better a month later?
@approachingmyexpirationdate I am, thank you!

the most important thing to do now, is to forget and move on.

People tend to go a lot these days, especially on here. Sorry to hear you are feeling emotional bankrupt. What happened with the friendship if I can ask?
@Bushmanoz I apparently offended them.
Bushmanoz · 56-60, M
@SarcasmInSydney What?..I assume by accident. You are allowed to with friends. They shouldn't leave, what shitty "friends"
@Bushmanoz Mmm hmm
