Congrats on the tour and the job!
Personally I'm hitting that mid 30s realization that I don't really have many friends anymore and the ones I do have I'm not super close with entirely by my own actions/inactions. I'm not torn up about it, it's just something I need to work on as a person I guess.
Same age, same boat. Ive got like 2 people in this city, and one of them is a local hexbear. That's really it. Its....it is what it is. Sometimes it gets me down, sometimes ive found my peace with it.
It does really make me appreciate my friends I do have and go through the effort of keeping in touch, that's really the hard part
Yeah, I feel you. I kinda intentionally dropped my oldest friend not too long ago. There are more reasons why, but the last straw was him getting married after moving back to his childhood home, in the suburbs of my city, and not inviting me (I saw pics of other friends there). I didnt hear a single thing about it from him.
lmao that's super similar to what happened to me! I'm not sweating about it though because a mutual friend told me he's becoming a full on chud
