Trying to have fun with friends on discord just feels hollow now and I’m giving up. I also stupidly reached out to the only “friend” within an hour drive and got excuses again so got to feel bad about that too. It hurts more to be alone in a crowded voice chat and to repeatedly try to get together with friends only to get excuses and never have them try to spend time with you than it hurts to just give up, stop trying, and just suck it the fuck up and accept I’m better off isolated. Fuck. Hate everything about existing more or less and I just want to stop.
I’m so sorry you’re going through this, and I hope you can find new things and people that bring light to your life 🫂 I went through the same thing last year with my friend group Discord server. I started to notice that I was the only one inviting them to play, trying to find games that fit all their random criteria, and then feeling terrible when I’d get every excuse only for those excuses not to apply to other friends. Recommend a game - no interest, another friend recommends the same game, all the interest. I eventually realized I was just at a different place mentally and emotionally and left. They’re still my friends, but being in a server that makes me feel alone just wasn’t good for me. Started putting my time into new friendships, but I’m just lucky these new people reached out to me because I’m incredibly shy. Gaming with friends is probably my favorite activity in life - not having that right now makes me sad, but I do now have friends to do irl things, which makes me happy. I don’t like reading, but I did start reading manga (all wlw/yuri) and would force myself out of the house to a local coffee shop to do that; that’s how I meant my new friends!
