fuck dude am i a bad friend for increasingly finding friendships extremely fucking stressful to maintain because every morning or maybe if i even just go offline for like 5 hours i come back to 20 discord messages from people who variously expect deep conversation or a favor or any kind of support really and i feel like it's mostly contingent on the fact that i've been good at listening and supporting for most of the past but it's so. fucking. hard. to do that now. SO. FUCKING. HARD
@doggeaux you’re not bad.. it’s just something I think all of us who grew up extremely online have to grapple with when life suddenly becomes super busy, and you just have to tackle what’s right in front of you. It doesn’t make your love for folks any smaller but oof the distance you feel as a result can really become a gulf, and it’s really sorrowful.. I’m sorry
