Maybe I Should Give Up My Last Friend


stripper

1,023 views

We've tried to coordinate gaming at his house twice in 2 weeks and both times failed due to lack of communication on his part. He doesn't want me on the days he failed to get shit together that he couldn't do them because of who knows what shit. A warning would be nice. I've had issues with this guy before. If I abandon him, I'll be truly friendless in person. He was hardly even a friend anyways

 

Coordinating anything with him is a selfish request though. I'd hate to be with anyone else because I willingly committed social suicide at my benefit. Bringing my whole 30 lbs gaming rig with me to play the same games we could just play online is a logistical waste of effort. We wouldn't even play Smash Bros Melee much, which is only worth playing locally. If I'm going to play games with anyone, I'm going to have to make sacrifices too and play their game of choice which I hate. Friendlessness is better for me because I never get let down by anyone and I never have to do things I don't want to do

Heya, I stumbled upon your blog, and I was just hoping that people are able to give you some good advice. Have you tried the life advice section, just in case people miss it?

 

If it was me, I'd have a short break and try again in couple weeks. I'm sure it's just early start of the year business that crops up.

I've had similar experiences, trying to co-ordinate anything with my friends seems like a one sided effort. I don't really know how to help the situation though since "just making new friends" is way easier said than done. I know how you feel though, being constantly let down like that is something I know all to well.

He finally responded way too late, but I didn't want to bring it up and we just played games online. I think I know how to handle this friend now

I'm not interested in making new friends, really

Not true mate, i mean sure, it does sound like shit what you're going through, but then I wouldn't know. I never actually had friends to game with when i was younger, so I kind of prefer to game alone..

I have a good friend, who always was good with plans. Nice place, nice games, cartoons, etc. Even ping pong, and would get into whatever you wanted to do.

Fell out of contact, he never set up plans- we had to call him, and fam sorta literally got cancer and insane, so I felt ashamed, embarrassed, stressed, etc. I lost faith, etc. I just couldn't handle recontacting him. Looking back on it, those were good times, it'd be fun to do again. I'm not gonna call him tho. He has a job, might even be married, idk, he still lives in the same spot. And between then and now, mlp happened. And I am a semi-reluctant semi-closet brony. So like, if he is into ponies, since theres a probability of that. That'd be weird, especially when my brother would not have a clue about it. Plus, my brother is sane, but a little weird and predictable. He would get into the brony thing if I tried indoctrinating him lol. But thing is sometimes he just doesn't know when to be quiet. Then again thats prolly my insecurities overstepping, he is prolly fine, I am prolly the problem here. But I am definitely more rational. 

 

Etc etc, I haven't been over to a friends house in ages, and in all my life I have prolly only gone to friends houses like 12 times. Not counting my cousin's, idk if that counts. Stopped hanging with him briefly too, cuz he has work, and other social responsibilities. 

 

So thats where I am at, and I was sorta in a forever alone sorta deal binge watching anime during college while fam was literally losing their minds, of course I dropped him.

 

But if it means being a little awkward, its prolly worth it to hang out again. Another thing, his place is spotless, and we have shedding dogs and everything, I would look slightly like a hobo. But its w/e.
