Unfriendly Wednesday

Peoria, Arizona
September 5, 2018 8:35am CST
Actually, this Wednesday is going pretty well. I got 4 hours of sleep so I actually feel really good and I took a shower so I am wide awake and ready to get to work. But I did start it out with some sad news. A friend of mine from high school apparently unfriended me on Facebook and no longer follows me on Instagram. We were really good friends even after high school until around I moved to Wyoming and then everyone I knew did not care to know me anymore. She stuck around, but we barely talked. I tried to message first, but she was always busy because I get it we are adults. So I thought that since we were really good friends that she would message me when she wasn't so busy. But I guess that never happened because we never talked and I felt really bad about that. I don't know why I was randomly thinking about her, but I was and I wanted to see how she was doing and I looked on Facebook and she was no longer a friend on Facebook and that is really sad. I feel like a lot of high school friends just don't want to know me anymore and I'm not really sure why. I don't know if it is what I did or they are just adults now and think that the fat emo girl they knew in school isn't someone they want to know anymore because she is still the fat emo girl. I don't know, it is sad and I tried to add her back so I shall see what happens. Being an adult sucks. It is very lonely.

You are completely opposite from me. Because there are like three people I still talk to from high school. The others I just don't even care to know about.

Most of the people on my friend's list who went to high school with me, didn't even talk to me, we just knew each other and mostly anyone who I did actually talk to don't talk to me or are just gone. It's whatever though, they just can't face how cool I am ;D

I don't look forward people of the past, but it must be disappointing to see a certain behavior when you didn't expect it at all. Perhaps the adult thing is overrated and she unfriended you to see how you reacted, if you still care. Well, you know her better than I do. I don't pay attention to most of my Facebook friends, even if I haven't talked to them for ages, they're still there. Unfriending someone is definitely intentional. They either want to see how you react, or they're somehow annoyed by the content you post, if you do (but, in that case, you could always choose to not let Facebook show the posts, without removing a friend).

Well I didn't really give her a reason to unfriend me, other than not talking to her consistently, I just didn't want to bother her. I barely even post on Facebook, the only thing I do is my webcomic heh

I had someone do that to me once, and I have no idea why. I guess I must have insulted her somehow, but I can't imagine what it was..unless she was just cleaning up her friend's list. Sometimes people just pare down their friends.

It does suck when that happens. I have a cousin that not only unfriended me, they blocked me so I can't even message them and ask what we can do to reconcile. Yeah, all those things about how "cool" it is to be an adult is just a trap to get us to wish our youth away, then we get hit with the bills, the jobs, and all the other problems we didn't have.

I have one of those cousins as well, but I know there is no way we can reconcile. Most of my family is filled with hate-filled, conservative, racist, homophobic jerks, I rather not associate with them. They never really prepare kids with how much adulthood can suck, or how to make it not suck.
