/kind/ - Random Acts of Kindness★

You receive your emotions in the same way you receive hypnagogic images, sounds, dreams, or when a song's hook sticks to you and plays in your head. There are depressed people who are unable to receive the emotion of grief for a lost friend. Therefore you should consider yourself lucky and appreciate this emotion you receive like you appreciate complex dreams. As a token of appreciation, you could paint a picture or write a program in which you express your grief. The more intensive your grief, the more time you'll spend expressing it, and the better your work will get. As you progress, the vibrating pressure in middle of your chest will be subsiding till you have no desire to work on your picture anymore, and then it's a sign there's no heaviness in your chest left, you're emptied out of grief. Alternatively, you could also write a thread like this one. It's a shittier version of painting a picture or telling it someone in the eyes. It's because mirror neurons aren't working that well when you connect to others without looking at them. But if you deeply believe I recognize pain in you and you're used to this way of dealing with emotions because you spend most of your time on the Internet, then your subconscious will settle for this.

I had a lot of friends, most of them were fake, though one of them was very close to me.

The moment I stopped making any effort to talk to them, they just disappeared from my life and I never heard from them again.

Later on I realised that the one friend that was close to me was actually an asshole too.

The only way to move on is to find new friends, there isn't really any other way unless you want to be a loner.

From what I've experienced, it just takes time.

I know that losing friends feels really awful when it happens, but eventually, with time, you get used to it. Doesn't mean it'll feel good, though.

Find new ones or focus on improving yourself so you don't do whatever you did again.

Hey OP,

I've been meaning to actually reply to this thread for a while now, but have delayed it till this point in time.

Anyways, I have no idea what the specific details of your situation are. From what you posted, I can only assume that you were very close to this person and that, because of some event unbeknownst to me, you two grew apart.

I just wanted to tell you that this is normal. In fact, if the other person did nothing to attempt to reconnect with you, then this outcome would be better. I'm sorry if that's hard to hear, but I guess I can sympathize with what you're feeling right now.

A while ago, I "lost" contact with a very close friend of mine. She hasn't talked to me for a while now, but that's okay. Truth is, OP, you lose people. It'll hurt and you'll be sad.

The thing is though, you can't let this get you down. I'm certain you'll find another friend to talk to. Humans are social beings, you're bound to find someone else in this world that will be interested in stuff that you'll like. In fact, I'm certain that they'll even make the attempt and get to know who you are, OP, and sympathize with whatever pain you experience.

I know you have the strength to get over this.

I believe in you.
