Re: If you were 16 now...

... life a bit challenging as an adult at times. Plus, Im not sure I even knew the label ‘bisexual’ as a kid; I just felt what I felt. My parents had friends from many walks of life and they exposed me to the same, so I grew up very understanding and accepting of people. But at the same time, there was ...

Re: Friendships and when they fade

... Not to sound callous but im going to try not to lose sleep over it. Personally seeing my partner grow and flourish is beautiful and most of her friends have really appreciated seeing her blossom in to being herself and not being stifled. Its gorgeous to see and makes my heart dance.


Thank you ...

Re: Friendships and when they fade

Thank you. I hope to live well and be happy as the best “revenge.” One of my remaining close friends reached out to me the other day, and it was really good to chat and to feel valued.

I’ll always care about the former (?) friend who ghosted me. It’s just how I’m wired. We have a lot of history. But ...

Re: Friendships and when they fade

Me and my partner had an issue with one of her friends who we both knew well.

My partner has become more herself as we have been together and its lovely to see.

A friend of hers allegedly said something about me saying “it was all my fault” she had changed.

I don’t know for certain that its true ...

Re: Friendships and when they fade

I'm terrible at friendships and actually starting to wonder if there is something neuroatypical about me (Asperger's etc). I love people, care about people and think of myself as caring. But if I don't see or talk to you for two years I might not even notice. It's not deliberate, I just have a huge ...

Re: Friendships and when they fade

I hear you. I used to have so many friends in my early twenties...partying, having get togethers, going out and having fun. But as time went by, we drifted apart and now I don't have that many left. Currently I have only 2 friends that I know I can really depend on. My best friend passed away a year ...

Friendships and when they fade

I’ve been sitting with this for a while. I’ve always had close friends, friend groups, and a social life, but in my forties I have fewer friends now than at any other time in my life. In some cases people have moved for work or family. In other cases we’ve grown apart.

I still have several people ...

Re: Actually finding a girlfriend?


For years I have been so good at making female friends and also would hope they would lead to close friendships but now I think its also been me trying to find that emotional special bond that I have felt before with women I have loved. I have found it very hard to find that with anyone and I ...
