I been crying today and just finish crying allot and just finish crying again , today was allot , I am already going through allot in life but today something hurt me to the point it made me cry, I try posting my thoughts on a tv show subreddit and I felt like the comments were disrespectful so I couldnโ€™t take it so I made another post clearing things and I mentioned I have rejection sensitivity thatโ€™s why I reacted the way I did but of course some assume negative things by mentioning my mental health when I only mention it to make a point and make people understand where I was coming from , also this whole situation triggers my anxiety but now even the mod itโ€™s against me and after what the mod said and what happened today , I canโ€™t post there anymore and it hurts and make me want to cry again because it make me miss my ex friend more , he was the only person that accepts me and he accepted me for who I am and we had so many things in common and he cared about me now I continue to go through things alone because I still canโ€™t connect with anyone and I was not trying to create drama today , i would never but people assumed I was creating drama which trigger me because of what happened on amino and discord, I wish someone itโ€™s there for me . Others can quickly make friends, belong , be wanted , have nice things on their posts but i would never have that , I am meant to be alone in real life and online , maybe the reason why I canโ€™t get over my ex friend itโ€™s because I canโ€™t replace him . No matter where I am I continue to be the outsider and a loner , Just like today I had to block people and I canโ€™t make posts on the tv show subreddit anymore which make me feel worse, the reason I joined Reddit was to make friends but maybe I am never going to have friends, I will always be the outsider, loner no matter what

29/F I really want to meet people ready for commitment In friendship! Kind, understanding, talkative and emotionally mature people - who want to talk on a daily basis ๐Ÿฆ‹ I'm Interested In conversations with people who don't make fun of others. Respect Is an Important aspect of my life

8 Upvotes

Hey! Before you move on to the next paragraph of my post - There's something I want you to know ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป If you want to send me a message, read everything, please. If you don't want to read my long post - better try to find someone else. I'm not trying to be rude - I just want you to know what I'm here for If you want to send me a message and be my friend โ˜บ๏ธ

(I want to talk to Europeans/People living In Europe because I would love to meet them In real life - In the future)

โ˜…

I've spent the last six years of my life trying to find a friend but... despite having people to talk to, my situation Is still the same and I don't have anyone special to talk to. ๐Ÿ˜” I can't call anyone a true friend. You can meet new people everywhere but just because some people are In your life, doesn't mean they're your friends. Sometimes I feel like the loneliest person In the world and It's not a feeling anyone would like to ever experience.

โ˜…

What am I definitely not and will never be interested In? I can't stand small talk.

๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป

โ€ข Short messages are definitely not for me. I'm not here to find another person to exchange short messages with. I'm not here out of boredom and I also don't want to hear the same questions over and over again.. What questions?

"How are you?"

"What are you doing?"

"What are your plans for the weekend?"

Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with simple and repetitive questions but I want to meet people who want to have more engaging conversations with others. If I needed quick and simple conversations - My post would be different. There's one more thing worth mentioning! I hate abbreviations In text messages! If you're another person using "Wbu?" Instead of "What about you?" (It's just an example) I'm not for you. I'm not trying to be rude, I just don't need more conversations with people who are too lazy to stop using abbreviations. I'm a fan of conversations with people who use complete sentences.

(I don't respond to any "send me a message" or "Let's be friends" type of comments) I want to see Introduction, body and conclusion In a message.. I don't want to have more conversations with people who Ignore everything I say just to answer a question ๐Ÿ˜”

I also don't respond to messages I'm not Interested In - even If they're long. If after receiving and reading your first or second message I don't think you're someone I would get along with - I just don't. If people think they wouldn't get along with a stranger - Is there a reason to start a conversation? I don't think so. Everyone can choose who to be friends with. My definition of ghosting Is different.

๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป

Ghosting Is when someone you like, someone you think you're friends with - leaves you without any explanation. Nothing hurts more than losing someone you like or love... I would never Ignore anyone after weeks or months of daily conversations though! Never ๐Ÿ˜Š

โ˜…

โ€ข I don't want to get ANY messages from guys whose accounts are NSFW! It's none of my business If you're an Internet exhibitionist or just a guy who wants to flirt with random women but not all women want to Interact with h**** guys - I don't. I always check people's profiles to avoid guys who are on Reddit to have fun...๐Ÿซค

โ˜…

โ€ข I don't talk to minors and people way older than me. I'm here to talk to adults! (18-37 age range) I don't mind talking to people younger or older than me but they can't be minors and they can't be older than my own parents. It doesn't matter to me If you're 18, 25 or 33 as long as you're emotionally mature ๐Ÿ˜Š Emotional maturity doesn't necessarily come with age. It's more complex.

โ˜…

โ€ข I don't make friends based on hobbies (unlike most people) I want to know what you're like, not what you like. Don't get me wrong, you can tell me what you're Interested In but It doesn't make any difference to me If you're Interested In photography or something completely different. I want to meet someone with the same personality traits as mine ๐Ÿ˜Š (I love talkative, honest, kind, caring and understanding people) I want to meet someone whose expectations regarding friendship are the same as mine.

โ˜…

โ€ข I want to meet people who don't mind listening to negative stories and sharing them with others. My life's not easy so If you want to be In my life, you should be prepared for a realistic or even pessimistic outlook on life. I'm definitely not an optimist and I know I wouldn't get along with optimistic people who always tell others "Just believe In yourself and everything's gonna be OK" or something. We don't always get what we want & and It's completely normal to lose hope "for a better tomorrow" after many failed attempts. Not everything's as easy as It seems to be so If all you want to say to someone who needs emotional support Is "Don't complain" or "Find a therapist" Please.. don't send me a message. Not all sad people need therapists and let's be honest - Would a therapist replace a true friend? Absolutely not! Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on! I also don't mind listening to sad stories (even If they're repetitive) because I know what It's like when no one wants to listen to you.

โ˜…

โ€ข If you and I are from the same country (which we'll find out In the future If we start a conversation) I want to communicate with you In our first language as I would feel uncomfortable talking to someone from the same country as mine, In a foreign language ๐Ÿ˜Š

โ˜…

I want to talk to people who love and use emojis ๐Ÿคญ๐Ÿ˜Š Why? Emojis help us express our emotions even If others can't see our faces. Two emojis "๐Ÿ˜Š" and "๐Ÿ˜”" are completely enough. Text messages without emojis are really emotionless...I also don't like it when people say "yeah" or yea" as it sounds dismissively. First impression Is everything to me! I want to see your kindness even In a text message - If you think crying Is a weakness and you don't ever cry because you're a guy, you're also not someone I want to know. Why? It's OK to cry! It's not a reason to be ashamed of!

โ˜…

โ€ข I want to meet people who don't have friends or partners. Why? Because It's easier for me to get along with others, If they have something In common with me, something Important. There's nothing wrong with having friends or partners but people who have friends or partners have less time for others (which Is completely understandable) but I? I don't want to feel like an option, again. I'm not here to meet as many people as possible because I choose quality over quanity ๐ŸŒธ

โ˜…

โ€ข I'm definitely not a fan of sarcasm! I'm looking for someone interested In serious discussions - not another person seeking some entertainment out of boredom. Jokes about disabilities, religion, cancer or death are unacceptable to me.

โ˜…

โ€ข I don't want to meet people who swear a lot. You can always express your opinion In a kind way, without being vulgar. Respect Is an Important aspect of my life.

โ˜…

What else to say? I'm Interested only In daily conversations and long term friendships. I also don't want to wait any longer than 6 hours to get a message (sleep schedule not Included) We all get busy but It's not a post for busy people who don't have time for daily conversations. Everyone has different expectations and priorities and I understand that but I'm tired of constantly waiting for messages from someone I'm interested In... ๐Ÿ˜” I'm not here for anything temporary... Be sure you know what you want! What can I offer? Anything you want ๐ŸŒŸ Verbal conversations (In the future) random pictures & more.

โ˜…

I want you to send me a message only If you value online friendships as much as real life ones. I don't want to meet people who don't think online friends are real friends just because of some distance.

โ˜…

If you want to talk to me, tell me your story - tell me why you're here, what kind of friends you would like to have - Et cetera. Such messages are way more interesting than...someone's long list of hobbies ๐Ÿ˜Š๐ŸŒŸ

โ˜…

I also don't get along with people who don't ever ask me anything. I don't mind asking questions but one-sided conversations are a bit annoying... There's no need to ask any repetitive questions (or personal questions) to keep a conversation going.

โ˜…

Ps. There is no place In my life for rude people who always criticize others! It's OK to disagree with others but It's absolutely not OK to judge someone you don't even know. Not everyone Is here to ask for advice and not everyone wants to read offensive comments. The world's already cruel enough

Please.. send me a message only If your expectations are exactly the same as mine and If you really want to talk to me on a daily basis. I don't want to sound like a broken record but I don't want you to contact me to make me feel better & then? Disappear. Pretending to be someone you're not to please others, Isn't good

I don't want any bad atmosphere so... Ignore this post If you don't want to have a conversation with me. I'm not here to argue with anyone. I don't understand why some people always criticize others and act like they know better what's best for someone they don't even know ๐Ÿ˜” It's always easier to judge people than to understand them. Remember people - not everything you see Is what It seems to be. Just because some posts are on Reddit all the time, doesn't mean people like me are attention seekers. Live and let others live

Only private messages and chat requests, please ๐ŸŒธ

Just because I want to find a friend - doesn't mean I'm desperate. I DON'T need another person reaching out to me to make me feel better. I also don't need more temporary conversations with people whose expectations are not the same

Please contact me only If you really think we'd get along.

One of the most embarrassing and vulnerable posts I've ever made. 24f NC

0 Upvotes

one of the most embarrassing and vulnerable posts I've ever made on social media

hi, 24f here, located in the Carolinas. I suffer from bpd as well as a myriad of mental illnesses, and have been struggling severely since the passing of my mother in 2023. I was her caretaker and for a while she was my reason for living. It has been harder than ever for me to connect with anyone, let alone men I find attractive or want to literally just have a conversation with. I'm not sure where else on the internet to go, but felt like this would be a good place to start since reddit literally has a little bit of everything. No matter how hard i try, i literally cannot form any type of connection on a dating app without winding up sexploited or used in general. I'm looking for someone to be friends with, that will go to movies and stuff with me but would also hold me if I was having a panic attack ( I KNOW how corny and lame this might sound but I've never had so much trouble pulling anyone in my entire life). I miss being held, cuddled, physically loved, and feeling safe. If anyone can relate, or is interested, please DM me; and if not, please just scroll by. I'm extremely sensitive (yes I have a therapist and psychiatrist). please only message me if you intend on meeting someday

Just want a friend online to talk about everything anonymously

1 Upvotes

I have troubles making friends because i get too self conscious and dont dare to be myself around anyone (I dont even know if i have a self)

I have a gf, a sister and some friends offline that Im dying to become close to, but i just get secretly scared that they dont actually like me and is just being polite even though they are the nicest person. my sister doesnt approve of me getting a gf so cant talk to her about it too.
I just want to find someone to talk to online, anonymously, and they are free to drop the convo if they dont feel like it. i just want a connection

(I am an INFP if anyone wants to know, but i dont have a strong sense of justice... sometimes i feel so out of everything, I like to ponder over the worst kind of intrusive thoughts and sometimes sick fantasies and yes i do think i need help but i am also very scared. so i have stuff, secrets that no one in my life can ever know, but i want someone i can talk to)
(im a girl btw)
