this is kind of a long rant so yeah- - - - ok look in the past few months, a lot of my friends have been leaving (often times they come back, but still) usually, they leave because: a) they feel like they're being ignored/no one is talking to them b) they're bored c) all their friends are leaving d) they aren't important i'm going to address these points one by one a) if you feel like all your friends are ignoring you, they are most likely not doing it on purpose. i try to talk to each of my friends once week, BUT I HAVE A LOT OF FRIENDS. IT IS REALLY HARD TO KEEP TRACK OF YOU ALL. I LITERALLY HAVE A LIST. i have lots of stuff to do other than scratch. i don't spend my whole day here. please reach out to your friends. they probably haven't forgotten about you. they're just busy. besides, this is a weird and difficult time we're in. there may be unseen difficulties or situations that are stopping your friends from reaching out. b) if you're bored, come to me! i can give you project ideas or talk to you or whatever. c) i'm sorry that your friends are leaving. just don't lose hope that they may someday return. </3 i'm always here if you need to rant or talk. i've lost friends before. it's very sad, but the sadness won't last forever. i promise. <3 d) you are important to me. i care about you. you make cool projects. you are amazing. honestly, i'm angry that so many of my friends are leaving. it's their choice, but i feel like mostly they leave because no one talks to them. i wish i could talk to all my friends all day, but i can't. and i can't do all the work. if you want to talk to friends more, you can also go to their profiles and say hi. i feel like sometimes i'm the only one in the friendship who is trying to hold the friendship together. i can't do that. it hurts when i have friends who leave because no one was talking to them, even if they didn't try to start up conversations. i want to be your friend. i just need you to meet me halfway. a friendship works best if both people are willing to reach out to each other <3 also- if you're going to leave, that's your choice! but i highly recommend letting your friends know. don't just disappear randomly out of the blue. i love you all
i just wanted to say that this has been going on for a while, but i sort of reached a breaking point when i discovered another friend was leaving because they were being ignored.
