There’s a bunch of creeps, fake accounts and fake people in these subreddits, and that’s really saddening. And when you do find someone who seems nice, it feels more like an interview that you’re doing. I could tell you my interests and ask questions about yours, but the replies will be about 1-3 words long. I can tell you everything that’s going on in my life and the reply will be 1-3 words.

Does no one even want to try to connect? Even people who seem to do a lot with their lives give the most blunt replies. It just makes me feel even lonelier and i miss having a close best friend. Maybe most people here are just incapable of upkeeping/making friendships. Why are these people here in the first place if that’s going to be the level of effort put in? Nothing was more fun than exchanging long texts with my friend who was like family to me. Too bad i didn’t realize what i had till it was gone.
