God I would kill for 2 real friends
Everyone is doing so badly this feels like a humblebrag
I'm pretty busy with work and family stuff, but if you're looking for a pen pal I'd give it a shot.
"Ew no"
Haha just kidding but making a point how most of us are our own worst enemy on this stuff. We want friends but don't make time for them.
Thank you! I knew I stole it from somewhere but didn't have a clue where from.
Ooof tell me about it that something I've done and have had done to me. I used to think friends are something you have, then a mentor explained to me that friends are an investment and we need to invest our time and emotions into them alongside that terrible thing...being vulnerable...I hate good advice
lol
Definitely. I have lost really solid friends over the years, because I don't put the work in. I'm actually not that great at being a friend to others, which I'm sure isn't super uncommon.
I will be your friend
