Guthix_Girl Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 i couldnt find any existing topics so lock it if there are.. but Have you ever had a lot of friends, and thought things were going good? Having a great year where you had a group of fun caring friends? Then all of a sudden, you notice that all of them are slowly vanishing? I had a great group of.. i dunno.. about 7 friends. We all had fun together and talked and had a great time. But now ive noticed i only have 1 of those friends left. They all slowly vanished.. Two of them i have no way of contacting. One of them has started to hate the person i am.. Two of them have gotten new friends and left.. And one of them things have just become really awkward between us (that one is a guy) So now i only have one good friend left that fortunately i am really close to.. but all of my friends are slowly vanishing away. i dont get along with many people and i especially dont fit in so there is a slim chance of me getting new friends. Has this ever happened to you? have your good friends slowly drifted away, with no fights or breaking up suddenly? just becoming distant? have any stories or any solutions ? i hope somebody can relate to me here.

WutangFlu Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 to some extent... I more or less drifted away from everyone by choice though.. went from a ''small'' group of probably.. 15-20 friends to a close knit group of less than 10. I tend to enjoy the limited activity with the smaller group of friends i have, but i know that at least a couple of then will be there for me if i need something, thats all that matters i guess... when graduation comes around and people leave, its going to get even more limited and spread out...

justin_m23 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 It happens all the time, i guess you just have to get used to it and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WutangFlu Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 ive known a couple people who are have been in your situation, or close to it. I suggest, judging from those people i know, that you move on before you waste time sulking and sinking yourself deeper in depression... write poetry, listen to music, read books... enjoy the outdoors.. chill out and relax and let time pass. Some people may need others to keep them happy, in my opinion you shouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodstain Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I had a friend who was my best friend for 10 years+, then we just stopped talking...I regret not doing stuff when we stopped talking, he was a great friend and it took losing him to remind me :( Funny thing is we live across the street from one another, i've tried to do stuff with him but he doesn't want to...falling out with friends sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knives669 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Aw. It happens. Don't worry about it. True friends are the ones that REALLY stick with you. And you won't have A TON of true friends. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kashi Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I have two friends (one boy, one girl) who are both within 3 months of my age, and I hang out with every weekend/every other weeked. I graduated high school a year early, and one of my friends got held back 11th grade, so by that set of coincidences, I'm graduated, my one friend is a senior, and the other is a junior, even though we're all almost exactly the same age. :XD: Anyway, I dunno' what I'd do without them. I don't really get along with most people. There were three other members of our little group, but one dropped out of school, one got pregnant, and the other grew a moustache that made us refuse to talk to him until he shaved it (I wont, at least, it looks awful). My greatest ambition is to kill every member of the human race.However I am a realist and therefore know that I probably wont be able to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doughnut Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I've had one friend for almost a decade, he went off to a new school and I haven't talked to him in over 5 months. :cry: "A time comes when silence is betrayal" MLKJ Speak your mind, but be civil.Get mad, but do not rage.Do unto others as you would want done to yourself.

Sumpta Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 It just happens. People come and go in your life, it's just the way it is. For every "era" in your life (high school, university, first job,...) you have a set of friends. Only a few core people will be there for the whole ride. It's not a bad thing really, you'll make new friends as you move forward from era to era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
____ Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 It happens a lot more as you get older.That I can easily agree with. I really only have a handfull of friends left. And none of them are from after I finished uni. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TotalTalker Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 About two years ago, literally all my friends were lost, and i got about 4-5 new friends. I had a friend who changed into a greebo, and I dont really have much to do with him anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakeitormakeit Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Yep, this happens to alot of people. I use to be in several groups and only one of five was able to stand the test of time. First group, just me and a bunch of friends you know, next year three people move away, and I left to another group because it wasn't the name with the other three. Second group, small group, four people, we use to do alot of things together until I joined anotehr group and they kind of just blended with other groups. Third Group, large, mostly because the people of group two followed me into it and then someone from group number two's girlfriend and her friend, eventually they broke up and that just wet the glue on the group. Fourth Group, a bunch of my really good friends, we had a great time, partied all year did all this stuff together it was so fun up to the point were two people did something which upset everyone else and I just left because they would always fight after that. Group five, not much to say except I joined their group, we have fun, except someone from the second group who use to mock the people in this group came in and I use to be the center of all attention but he grabs the spotlight. Point is, everything will fall apart eventually, it seems that you just grow apart unless well maintained. A bridge os bound to collapse if you don't see that the supports are strong just as a bond between friends. Alot of empires fell apart because they seperated or interests differed too greatly. Edit: Except through all this, my best friend is still the same from when I was 3-4ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echofish Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I haven't talked to a lot of my friends since I moved to the UK 3 years ago. I miss my nanny even more. She was more of a mother figure to me than my real one since I'd always be left with her. She was there for me ever since I was born, know I haven't got a clue about where she is or how she's doing :cry: And what is a Greebo? Lol. Ultra Unholy,Hearted Machine...

Futurama Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Afraid so, yeah. We all got to college and people changed a lot, now it's nowhere near as easy as it once was to just be good mates all the time. I suppose that's a large part of growing up though, realising that it's not all fun and games. :( Echofish - greebo/rocker/mosher etc. greebo, where i come from, usually means a more wannabe than anything. IE linkin park/korn hoodys, crap cheap baggy jeans, doesnt tend to wash, dyes hair black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebdragon Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Hasn't happened to me. I've lost friends only because of moving and/or switching schools.

Flametrooper Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Have known two of my friends since around the age of 18 months; most from between 1st and 3rd grade, and met a few more in 5-7th. All of these "longtime friends" (I'm in 9th, now) keep together, despite arguments. The ones who drifted away aren't really my friends anyway.
