Didn’t know this was such a shared experience lol. After COVID subsided I literally could not get a single friend to get the fuck off Discord and outside to go on a hike or anywhere. Decided I’d stop trying so hard, quit using Discord, and waited to be invited to something. It’s probably been 3 or 4 years now with no contact from any of them.
I am simultaneously disheartened and reassured by the amount of people upvoting my comment, yeah – I may be alone and slowly going mad, but at least I’m not alone in being alone and slowly going mad.

Having friends is overrated, but probably good for mental health
