Well, that hasn't happened to me because my squad is pretty much so tightly-knit, it's impossible to imagine we'll ever split. 5 years and still going strong; that's something.

No, I'm just terrified by the fact that my friends are going to grow up, get engaged, and leave me behind while I'm still the social awkward I am. If that ever happens I think it'll be another trauma.

im probably the master of losing friendships

my parents are somewhat popular in my town so when i was a kid i had huge ass reputation because of that, i knew sooooooooooooooo many people in my town but i never really cared about it or pursued it and mostly took it for granted,

then due to circumstances and family being lame i left my town for a year and when i came back all my friendships were sort of destroyed (with my neighbors etc they made circlejerks while i was gone), so i just fell back to the internet mostly.. then .. i made a fuckton of friends on the internet because of my personality, i also had my own guild with 30-40 active ppl at the time (which changed so in reality way more than that probably)

at some point i had over 300 skype contacts from people i "knew" but i've always preferred small circle of friends and shit and never really pursued people or friendship or anything so it all died out, in the end everyone stopped talking to me (I stopped talking to them also) and the only people i talk with that i know for awhile are 1 guildie that i know for over 10 years now (online), hes literally the only guy i talk to (well few more chat me up here and there but we're super distant with them i doubt itll last) and one of my neighbors who lives in another town and only comes back for few days every few months

friendships that last years literally gone in a split-second decision.. i don't really regret it tho, its kinda complicated to explain, most of my friends grew up and abandoned me sort of while im still stuck in the same place and i can't blame them and the other half were wrong so whatever, being wrong is a sin.

i mostly get sad about not meeting the people i want rather than losing most people i know

I had what you would call a squad. There was 9 of us and we always hung out together and did everything as a group, and then during one summer break when I wasn't in the city they got into a fight (I still don't know about what) and the group split in two parts. When I came back the whole thing was already finished and I stayed in one of those groups because I was closer to its members. We're still best friends, and we still don't talk with some of our ex-friends from the second group ._.

I also lost a lot of internet friendships. I meet someone, we skype (camera, mic...), get to know each other really well and then I just end it all. Dunno why I'm doing that, it's infuriating.

Losing friends? Ohohoh, I'm really good at this shit.
People come and go and shit moves on and I just don't care.
I have fun with the group of firends I form over a certain period of time, certain situations arise and the group just can't function as it could anymore, I don't mind it and everyone goes their separate ways.

It's in my nature to not bother much over anything so I guess that's why I don't try to fix anything and just leave it. I know I'll make some new friends one day, anyway.

Well, to a certain extent, it's natural. People grow up, settle down, get careers and have families. When that happens, people just grow apart. The smaller your group of friends is, then I guess the more you'll feel it. But everyone's group of friends shrinks as time goes on and everyone's priorities change.

I found that children are the thing that does it the most. You all have kids at different points, they take up a lot of your life and if you don't have them at around the same time it pulls you apart. However, new friends appear when your kids go to pre-school and school, because you have similar aged children and your kids become friends.

Not realy i still have my group of friends, and i'm happy with that.

Except for my ex bestfriend, after a while me and my other friends realised what kind of guy he realy is, he would constantly try to steal your girlfriend behind your back and other bad stuff.

Good riddance.

When I entered high school, a friend I had since elementary school suddenly decided I was too nerdy and started to hang out with the cool kids. I didn't really try to get him back, but a few year later when we met again, he was somehow cool with me again and regularly met up to play videogames and stuff. Now I don't really talk to him anymore, but I have him added on Facebook and check his stuff from time to time.

Most of my other real life friendships were lost because I moved to Sweden on my 18th. Online I've had a few times when I had friends I could get along with pretty well, and then suddenly they disappear for long periods of time or start acting different and our friendship breaks kind of out of nowhere. But that's online for you, you never really know what those people are like in real life.

One group used to be huge but now half of the people vanished. We all got enlisted, and a year or so ago two guys started fighting. Serious fighting, threatening to sue each other over bullshit. Now we're smaller and no longer have this sense of fun.

With the other group, I just got nothing to do with. I care about anime, books,video games, music. They care about, what exactly? I hear about how terrible lefitsts/liberals are, but that's it. We don't really talk about things and they don't want to do new stuff. I don't have much to do there anymore.

Have you ever found yourself joining a small group of people and calling them your friends? Or your squad? Or something like that? And then, time passes by and somehow, you don't really care about them anymore. If so, why do you think it happened? Is it because you didn't put enough effort in keeping up with them or you started realizing that they're not worth it anymore?

I've been through this my entire life. I find a group of people, somehow they either break up or I break up from them. I've been doing the latter recently because I joined two small groups last year and we bonded over our hatred for another person. I guess that wasn't enough to make our friendship last. Eventually, I started disliking two of the members in the group and now I rarely talk to them unless I have some interesting news (about a game we all play) to share with them. I just feel like they don't care about me and that everyone's drifting apart. I've always had another insecurity where they've made another group with the same exact members, minus me, to talk behind my back.

If you were in my situation, how would you cope with it? Would you try and mend the group?

Discuss and share your friendship breakup stories. :'(


So friendships can be a trap especially online because people aren't always who they say they are they might seem cool or that you share things in common but as time goes on you find out things about them that makes you dislike certain things then you end up avoiding them all together.

I've had alot of different friends and I mean some I can just tell right away that I don't like things about them but I'm the kind of person that gives everyone the benefit of the doubt. Though if your a major douche canoe then your just asking to get blocked pretty much.

Because the only thing you have in common is the hate for someone that really isn't much of a foundation for friendship. Cause maybe they will patch things up with the person you all hate and then they turn around and start talking about all the things you said to that person and then that just turns into more drama then its worth too.

Over all out of all the friends ive made over my whole online experience the longest friendship i've ever kept with someone was 15 years without ever meeting them in person. But I only have really choosen a small handful of people who I consistantly talk with and want to be around because most people are only out for personal gain very few are ones you can call "true" friends but its not the amount of friends its the quality of friends :)

If this were an anime, I'd wreck them both and it would require the combined forces of Canadian Feminist, those two clowns and maybe magical mcguffin to defeat me. I would also wear a stylish cape and do the Ojousama laugh in Jojo poses. It would be awesome, I'd steal the show and get a spin-off.

I only have one real friend i've known for years and we talk everyday on skype, he used to live close to me but he moved and i was alone ever since. I still visit him from time to time though. We'd sit somewhere on the grass and smoke a couple of j's, talk about deep philosophical shit. Man i miss him already even though we always talk online, i just want to see him in real. He's like the brother i never had.

At school i just try to fit in and hang out with people that smoke weed and after school we do just that, so i can forget about everything and just let go. I don't consider them my friends though.

I imagine if this were a shounen anime, scavrefamn would be either the rower from Naruto, or one of the poorly drawn background characters in durarara.

I also assume, that if scavrefamn did happen to be in a shounen anime, it would called "boko no namae wa baka desu". It would feature scavrefamn being retarded and saying retarded things like "99% of my country watches anime" or "Your name is Ted you leftist tumblrite". He would go around confusing the words jealous and envious, as he just did, on his quest to beat the evil leftist feminist akatsuki shinigami Kuro chinchin.

It has been very entertaining, I tell ya!

I've had many sc. friendships that have just died in one night, BAM! It's very weird if you've been best of friends with someone and then the next day you don't even talk to each other anymore and you just wonder what the fuck just happened... that's one reason I don't want to have too many female friends, they really are devils in disguise. And guys are much more relaxed in every way and you can say WHATEVER without having to be afraid somebody's gonna be offended by something you just said. I tend to be that kind of a person who really doesn't think in advance and say stupid, VERY sarcastic and kind of insulting things to some people because I'm in a real comfort zone with them and they just lol it away. I actually asked my young lover the other day if there were many hoes using my towel at his place while I wasn't hanging out there. He was a bit confused for a moment but rofld afterwards pretty good.

I do consider my words very carefully with most of the people I'm socializing with but ... after reading what I just wrote I'm not wondering anymore why I tend to lose most of my female friends.

I just saw that (Ep7) , that's brilliant.

Anyway this anime has just the right level of cynicism that I needed to forget about mother f***ing Oreimo. But I struggle a lot to enjoy because it's just impossible for a cute female, or any female for that matter, to have the problems that Tomoko has. It just doesn't make sense... it's entertaining but it's just not believable. Women don't need social skills, they just need to exist, they don't socialize, they get socialized with.



It's so cute... but it's also so tragic, this is some of the blackest comedy I've ever seen.



She just wants to be petted !

Anyway I will check your recommendation once I finish this anime.

I tend to do this a lot. Find a group of people to hang out with and then slowly drift apart. It's usually because I'm only really friends with one or two people from the group and that isn't enough to make me stay. So, I just find another group.

If I were you I wouldn't worry about what the people in the group are doing now. If you drifted apart there is probably a reason for it, so it's best to leave it that way. Unless you live in a small community, there are bound to be plenty of other people and groups who would appreciate your company. So go out and find 'em! Or if you're just the best you can let them find you.

Finished Watamote. That was glorious man, GLORIOUS.
It became my #3 anime OAT.



Also, that was soul raping.... I 'felt' so bad for Tomoko but I guess that's the point.
I am positive that I am not the only guy that wanted to pet her and tell her "It's okay".
In a childish way; I wished she was real so I could give her attention and nurse her back to health.

It probably depends greatly from person to person... I love dark comedy, but even I had a *LOT* of trouble watching Watamote... I had to take breaks because it was so dark.






That being said, I loved it.
10/10. Would recommend, but with warning of extremely dark tone.


She's relateable for both otaku guys and girls.


I don't know about girls , females don't have trouble socializing because they just need to exist.

But anyway, I was able to 'relate' to Tomoko because I was once like her... when I was in my mid teens, I had 0% social skills, loved playing video games and watching anime... everything I said came out wrong and I screwed up pretty much any chance I had to make friends.

Then a few years later I somehow landed a girlfriend, railed her brains out over and over, gained confidence and became a completely different person. /shrug

ANYWAY, Watamote 10/10.
