LPT: Anytime you feel bad about not reaching out to a friend in a long time, just remember that they also havnt reached out in an equal amount of time.

This is why I stop reaching out to people.

I stop liking being around them.

It's usually because they have a bunch of complaints about how I haven't been meeting some requirement I didn't know I was supposed to be meeting.

If there's nothing new, there's nothing new. I don't need to be chitchatting about nonsense to make someone feel "up", and I certainly don't need to hear about how disappointing that is.

The saddest truth is that I'm always relieved when they finally stop texting and inviting me to brunch.

It isn't that I'm depressed, either. I still talk with the people I like. We hang out all the time.

These hangers on though holy shit
