  • As the years go on, my friendships seem to dwindle. That could be for any number of reasons, but perhaps it's a normal and even necessary part of life. Everything is not meant to be eternal, and that's ok.

    Im 21, had maybe 4 "friends" in high school, and I use quotes because I never hung out with them outside of school. I have 4 contacts in my phone, just immediate family, I'm broken, and I've almost ended it a couple of times. I never thought it could get worse, but my god, it doesn't stop getting lower. Seeing these types of videos helps me to try and keep going.

      Hey Sal, I definitely understand how that feels. I moved states in middle school so going into high school I never felt comfortable because I thought everyone already had “their” friends. I eventually found an amazing group of like 8 kids. One girl ended her life our senior year of high school, 2 girls spiraled into a dark depression and have been in and out of treatments, and 3 others moved to separate states across the country. I only talk to the last 2 friends from that group and other than family they are the only 2 people in my phone. I’m only 20 so I can’t give much life advice but I understand how you feel to be broken. I’ve failed out of school, struggling to pay bills, find a better paying job, and can’t seem to hold on to any type of healthy relationship. Everyone I know sees me as the most bubbly person on the outside because I don’t want them to know how I really feel inside. I tell myself that tomorrow could be the day I get my big break and that it will be worth going through all the tragedy. All I can really say is plan ahead for you future but take life day by day, you will never see a rainbow until it storms and the harder it storms the prettier the rainbow will be. Please keep your head up and stay strong!!

      Going off what the other person said, everyone has their days that can stretch on for weeks, months, etc. Really, the most important thing to do is to keep pushing with hopes for something better. You can't give up this early; you've just started. I'm only 19 myself and about to turn 20 in half a year. I've been a marine for longer than I've been a high schooler, so I've had shittier days/weeks/months than the majority of people will ever have. I try not to make friends, but somehow always attract them in the weirdest ways. 😅

Yes, this is an everyday guy (looks to be in a good state) venting and has a ton of views, rare but it does happen to people here and there.

Maybe whatsoever is harsh, but there is no direct connection, they just both happen to be independently "true". Sorry.

    i’m glad you’re speaking on this. i’m new here, but i’m 34 and have no friends, no real relationships that are mutually respectful or supportive, no connections… for a lot of reasons. most of the real homies passed away, friends who didn’t deserve the title, friendships that fade over time. it’s pretty hard to face not having anyone left in you’re corner, especially in a time in life where it’s hard to form friendships- with other impacting factors (like i’m autistic, and won’t mask to hang out with someone).
    but im glad more younger people are being open about it, i can’t imagine going through my 20s without people to share experiences with, places to go form memories, realize what makes a true friend too. the world has changed and the impact on human connection is a problem if you ask me… we all need someone, we’re social creatures at our core.

    Thank you for sharing this. I am a 30 year old woman, my friendships have dwindled down and I no longer care. I have been protecting my energy because a lot of people are not rooting for you. I want to be focused on the goals I've set for myself and that requires working in silence. You will find people who match your energy and are on the journey you're on. It requires being patient, selective, and the relationship needs to be consistent. I am no longer running after people for attention, acceptance, or to be loved. I've done that majority of my adolescent years. I've always cared about what people thought of me. Use this time to find a small community of people to have some social life. It can be as simple as joining an adult sports league, outdoor activity, artistic circle, then come home and focus on yourself.

I was never the type of person to have a lot of friends but life and negative experiences made me a much more reserved and private person. It's hard to find people that are really interested in who you are as a person and what that means. Most people nowadays are fake and do things to get something and im not down with that.

      Friends are definitely necessary. I mean why else would people make video's expressing these feelings? It's not as if this video is a testimonial for succes. Friendships can lead to a more healthy/wealthy life because friendships can often lead to opportunities for jobs, relationships, entertainment, and overall better self-esteem as a consequence of mentioned opportunities. It is a lesson I had to learn myself and I'm glad I pushed myself to reach out to better(!) friends. Cut ties with your bullshit friends, those who f*ck with you, take too many dr*gs, those that space out into fantasies to much, and those that stab you in the back.
      People attach too much meaning to the word "friend". A friend does not have to be "your life-time" buddy and knows áll your insights... I met someone on a vacation who I will probably never see again, but we clicked so well, I will not hesitate to confidently call that person my friend. If you f*ck up with me, your not my friend anymore... So what I learned is that the word friendship is way more fluid, fragile and short-termed than I thought before. Don't raise the bar so high, or else friendships will always be this unreachable deep battle.

    You're not alone!!! I definitely can relate. To be perfectly honest I just gaven up on it all now, try my best not to think about it anymore.
    Don't get me wrong, I get on with lots of people that I come across on a daily basis. I tried to keep myself busy by running my charity on Thursday which filled any void and which given me some comfort.
    I think Lord made it like this for me. So, that I could focus more on him. To show me where my focus should be. So if I get friendships I'll probably know how to appreciate it.

    I'm 30 and I have no friends. As I've grown and matured my standards for who I want in my life have tightened to the point where nobody's left. I don't tolerate phony people any longer. I would encourage anybody to break off their half ass friends. If any of your "friends" talk to you, and treat you in a way you wouldn't treat them. They're not your friend. Some of us are too compassionate and need to realize that compassion is wasted on some people. Took me a long time to realize that. Because there isn't a strong character and integrity behind it, all the fake love they claim to have for you doesn't mean shit.

      I can really relate. I will be 25 in december and as most people in the comments here i also dont have friends nor a gf and it doesnt bother me. I ended my friendship with last group of people i knew 2 weeks ago it was a guy i met in school when i moved to a new country 6 or 7 years ago and when i moved back to this country in January he introduced me to his gf and one more girl from their school and 2 weeks ago we all were about to move to a new apartment they found. Me and that dude were talking about start making music together because sometimes i make EDM music as a hobby and im still learning always searching for videos about music but idk what snapped in me and one day i texted that i will not be moving in with them and i kinda dont want to be associated with them anymore and mainly its because they dont do anything they just pretty much go to university and smoke weed all day and he never tried to even make music all he does is just saying if we need to make music get rich but never does anything. So i can really relate when i started to mature and have standarts the circle became very very small.

    Hi Zo, I'm 51 and losing friends is a normal occurrence. I've been betrayed early in my life by friends, so I started keeping folks at a distance. I have levels to people. There are acquaintances but few friends. Having friendships takes work. Sometimes one person gives more to the friendship than the other, but true friendships never die no matter how long your don't talk or distance. Having one quality friend is better than having 20 useless, selfish, narcissistic acquaintances. Be a good person always. You'll attract what you are inside eventually, but you'll definitely kiss a bunch of frogs along the way. Bless you for sharing your story. I don't believe we put here to be alone. Finding good people to do life with is hard, but don't give up.

      My advice is, work hard, and do great things, and become friends with others who are also grinding, it happens when you are grinding, for example, When I started leveling up in my gym and training, i started gaining more friends, (not alot ) but a good few quality, 1 by one over time, because I guess when you are healthy you attract other hustlers to be friends. the same thing with other areas in life. Family relationships signinficantly improve when you take care of your addictions and just live the life you are suppose to live, even if it's hard.

    I'm 30 and I feel the same. My guesses are:
    1 - We've matured and learned that not everyone was a "friend", we just happen to be around each other for long periods of time.
    2 - Work really consumes people. Social life takes a toll when after graduation, going out stops being fun when you are constantly tired.
    3 - Social media has people only texting. We barely have real face to face humans interactions like our parents did.
    Lastly, society has changed so much. When I was a kid my little town used to be fun, regular parties and events happening throughout the year, there was always something to look forward to where you'd meet people and socialize. The last time there was something like that I was like 15, now not a single celebration type of thing ever happens. The fun town I remember is no more.

    My life peaked like 2 years ago - I had many good friends, spoke and played games with them every day. I had a girlfriend. I had a good job with a cool boss. Worked out, got slim. Got a nice haircut, clothes, fragrance etc. It was the best time of my life, I finally felt like I belonged somewhere. Then it all started to go to shit, my job changed, friends started disappearing one by one because of things in their lives, and even though I was always there for them, it turned out they were never there for me. I eventually broke up with my gf. Got fat again. Stopped caring about my looks. Have a job that I hate. And my life is just miserable. I can't even speak with anyone. I have literally no one. I never had many friends, but I never had ZERO friends. But at least I have a youtube comment section, where no one will ever read my comment, but at least I can rant and let off some steam.

    Honestly this is what comes with getting older; friendships become something you've gotta put a lot more effort in than when you were in school and was pretty much "forced" into a closed environment with the same people everyday. With life's responsibilities and just general adulting, it becomes harder to maintain them.

    • @gilleschen7373
      @gilleschen7373 Před 10 měsíci

      ​@@kulolal Hey man, i'll be glad to share my story with you.
      I was always self-conscious about my body, being fat/overweight basically 90% of the time. About 4 years ago I was at my worst, I felt the ugliest, was the most overweight, quit University after 2 years because it was too hard and had to change to another University. Not much changed immediately after that, but in 2021 during Covid, I really went down a rabbit hole of self-improvement. At that point, I did not really have any close friends, I barely went out or even got invited.
      The past 2 years I have been fully focusing on grinding, improving myself and my mindset and becoming who I truly am. This meant a lot of isolation, which sometimes made me feel depressed - but I know I was doing something good for myself and that at the worst case at the end of this self-improvement journey - I'll have a better mindset, better physique and more confidence and love for myself.
      Becoming my authentic self meant that I began approaching people with a newfound sense of character, a quality I had lacked in the past - I actually felt like I had no character at all.
      Nowadays if we talked, you would probably not forget me very easily and see me as "that" guy. Approaching people with my now more refined and defined character meant that I now would only make friends who I liked and who also liked me for my now more outspoken and direct personality.
      I don't have tons of friends - I don't care about that - but I have 2-3 very close friends who I spend a lot of time with working, going to the gym etc.
      The essence of this may sound clichéd and unremarkable, but its truth remains undeniable - work on your fucking self. Find out who you are, what you are. Improve your mentality. Take care of yourself physically and mentally. Look clean. Behave like a good man. Dress well. Speak slower and more confident. Look people in the eyes. Walk around with your chest up and shoulders back. Be thankful to God.
      TRUST ME - it adds up. I had no relationship before recently at the age of 26 - and now I have found the love of my life.
      Life is undeniably good-perhaps almost too good right now for me. However, I remain mentally prepared to embrace the lessons that Life and God may still have in store for me.
      Whatever you do - live a good life. Become a good man. Respect everyone - but most importantly - RESPECT YOURSELF.
      I kept this story short, a lot of details are obviously missing, but I hope you get the idea.

      Going off OP, every time I isolate myself it takes a lot of time and effort to start reaching out to people again. Small baby steps, like remembering how to even just have conversations by tiny small talk with one person at the store counter or a dog walker etc.
      Stuff like looking up one or two of your hobbies or potential interests (anything!) and try to start slowly going to groups and testing it out. It’s awkward and draining at first but bit by bit you get into the swing of things.
      Initiating things with people who you’ve fallen out of touch with!
      Ultimately, isolation is torture for humans (that’s why solitary confinement in jail is such a punishment). Isolation severs our connections and makes us bitter, and while that hurt can be in response to genuinely hurtful things a lot of that times, isolation BLINDS us over time, and makes us more and more bitter as time goes on.

    so relatable, i've been on my own since my college days, and now at 24 i've noticed that as i've grown older, my circle of friends has significantly changed. i had friends from high school, but honestly, i never found much comfort being around them. letting go of these friendships was a decision i made, but it's difficult because of how crucial and unhealthy loneliness can be

      But man there is so much other things to life. For me personally I’m 21 right now and I slowly drifted away from all my friends from highschool. But it didn’t brother me or make me feel any typa way.
      My biggest concern now is what do I want to do with my life what am I going to do for a career.
      Cause at the end of the day nobody is going to be there for you when ur trying to earn money or make a living, or when your trying to find ur career path.
      Once you got all that figured out, if u still have no friends then start focusing on that.
      But for me personally friends are the last thing that is on my mind. I’m a lone wolf type. I’m not seeking friendships.

    Tbh i think as long as you have hobbies especially if they get you outside and you have self confidence being a loner feels like the most freeing thing ever. You can go into almost any social setting and just feel comfortable being yourself and people actually gravitate towards that confidence and sense of calmness.

      29 here and I have no friends. I am very much a “loner” personality. I like doing things on my own, how I want, when I want. I got family so that helps a lot. I also work 60 hours a week and get all the socializing that I require at work. When I’m not working I like being alone. I am friendly and make small talk at the stores or say hi to people I pass but otherwise I am very introverted and like it. I think society/social media makes it seem like if you don’t have friends you are the odd one. But you’re not.
      I do hate tho when people ask me who I hang out with or what things I do with others on the weekend. I don’t. And they don’t understand.

    I honestly feel the same. Had really close friendships with people from middle to high school. Like we would always hangout during the weekend or have parties with each other, always helping each other out. Then when they graduate it all changed. I would be lucky if one of my old friends even read a text message i sent. I honestly wish people who are in this same boat could meet up and become friends. Anyways thanks for posting. Videos like this make me feel less alone in this world. Theres only so much hobbies and grinding at work can do to fill the void of loneliness

    Someone once said "Friends are in your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime". Once you understand that friendships aren't the rosy concept purported by movies, letting people go and move on in their lives won't be as hard. I sympathise with your words, mostly because I was deeply betrayed in my youth, but I am working on trusting people again as I regard very few people outside of my family as true "friends".

You are being mean to someone just because of their faith knowing good and well this person is not the reason your acting like this. Don’t blame the actions of others on another just because they belong to the same group. I’m not Christian and i dont mind because its the internet. You reported him for trying to spread love to another person in the best way he can because thats how he grew up. And not only that but Christianity it the majority religion in the United States. You sound very hurt, hurt enough to report someone for a quote that is supposed to support others. If you dont like how Christian’s treat others then dont do the same.
