losing friends

have you lost any friends recently?

I have, but the saddest one is i kinda lost a best friend and i wish i hadn't. But it's just so hard to communicate with her because i'm so busy and she lives in another city. idk, i'm a terrible friend probably.

one of my friends from my group back in high school died of cancer a couple of years ago. sucks that he died cause he was funny and talkative. i still remember walking after school with him and my other friends.
i dont really talk that much with some of my old friends but i do talk with them every other month or so through texting or fb.

You're not a terrible friend, it happens. C'est la vie.
I've lost some friends due to lack of communication since I started university, but I realized that maybe I didn't feel like talking to them anymore for a reason.

I feel like when you "lose a friend" you realize that there's a good chance they were never really a friend in the first place. That being said, I still keep in touch with my close group of friends that I grew up with as well as my close group of friends from college.

I lost my best friend back in August.

He just showed me he was never really my friend, so it's okay.

quoting rapper young jeezy - " who gives a (swear word) about friends, if you mix the baking soda with it, you can get a benz"

so no i dont get sad over losing friends, but they do.

@Omegathorion Being not great to work with doesn't mean you can't be friends still though, if that's the only reason. Incidents like this could be why some people try to keep friendship and working separate, since it can interfere with your other relationship if one of them goes south.

Yeah,just did actually.Someone I really cared about,and valued so much.I enjoyed just talking to said person,and miss it severely,because no one was there for me as much as they were,I really see that now.They just didn't want me in their life anymore apparently,and cut off ties with me.Oh well I still feel the same though,I don't have an ounce of hate or resentment or anything on the negative side.Even though since then it's one bad thing after another.I'm probably bad in some ways anyway,and I feel I'm losing the rest,maybe better off alone?

I don't know.
I never really have a strong attachment to people in general.
I have a difficult time knowing when someone is actually my friend since friendships are made between equal interest and interaction of two people.

Recently, I've been thinking about how I stopped hanging out with a group of friends.

I'm enrolled at an out of state university, so I don't really know anyone here. But in my freshman year I made friends with a girl in my major, and over the years we were pretty close. Eventually, I started hanging out with her circle of friends (she's from the area so her high school circles are still there). For the past few months, I haven't hung out with any of them. Honestly, they're not really my friends, it's more of a friend-of-my-friend kind of deal (I don't even know half of their names). But I'm pretty thankful, because it didn't seem like those connections would do me any good. They never playtested my games.

Mostly, I'm sick of the original girl I was friends with, because I'm working together with her on my senior project and her performance has just been... underwhelming. Along with everyone else's, but I wasn't really friends with anyone else in my senior project group to begin with. So I'm glad to get away from that circle of friends. They were a pretty useless bunch.
