Anyone ever feel like a background friend? Like you have friends and are in a friend group but there always someone in the group that somebody else likes more? Lmao
Like you aren’t anyones ~favorite~ friend I’m the group. You’re kinda just the universal friend https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Loudly crying face" aria-label="Emoji: Loudly crying face"> And you know a lot of people in a lot of different ways but you never make deep connections with them. It’s always just like small talk and you guys are friends but not really
And like every interaction you have with people, whether it’s a work or class or whatever, stays within that setting and just doesn’t expand? Idk it’s so hard to explain but I know there’s someone who understands what I’m saying?? Lol
I’m not saying I don’t have close friends and what not because I loveeee my girls sm. But still lol
I see people talk about their college friends and how they are the best type of friends and I’ve met some amazing people in college but I haven’t made like a suuuper close friend. In other words, I haven’t just hung out with someone I met in college just for ... fun.
Most of our conversations are limited to like our class work, or organizations, or whatever. And they are amazing people, but our relationships typically stop there. And even at places I’ve worked, my coworkers would always be like best friends and hang out outside of work.
And that just like... didn’t happen with me. It could be because of how busy I am so I’m not blaming it on anyone https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="šŸ˜‚" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy"> but it’s still a weird feeling.
All in all, I absolutely love the people I have met in college they are some of the most amazing people I have ever met and I wish I could expand some relationships I have made. I want to have the experiences where we take road trips and discover new shops and all that https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="šŸ˜‚" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy">
And my childhood friends, even if we don’t talk often, are always going to be my friends nmw. And my girls now (from high school) feel like sisters. They are the best group of girls I can ask for. So I don’t discredit the relationships I DO have at all.
Ew I just realized I changed my mind mid sentence in the first tweet of this thread so now it isn’t grammatically correct and now I am upset
