I love how she acknowledges the importance of online friendships, as so many times I've been told that online friendships are just "fake ways of getting affection", but I genuinely think otherwise
I have a friend that I used to be incredibly close with, we had similar interests and became really close during covid and in 2021. Then during the summer of 2022 he got his phone taken away in July and hasn't gotten it back since. I noticed it before but in the past whenever I opened up to him he would not even sympathize with me, he would automatically make it about him and how his life is way harder and worse than mine. It felt pretty shitty and then when he got his phone taken I had so much more freedom, I didn't realize how controlled and caged I felt with him. I have been civil with him and I still have friendly conversations that always somehow get to him calling me offensive things and then complimenting, it doesn't feel the best. Not to mention he told everyone my secrets that I told him to not tell anyone. Now he is trying to become closer to me again and I am obliging him, but I don't want to be his friend. He constantly makes me feel shitty and uncomfortable and acts like he is the victim, it's bs. Thankfully, he is transferring schools next year and never misses the chance to tell all of our friends that he will forget about us once he leaves. I don't know how to end this friendship throughout the rest of the school year but I am out of therapy right now and with him trying to get closer to me... it's definitely putting a strain on my mental health and my physical health as well. Thank you for the reassuring video, it kind of solidified my thoughts on this friend and exactly where I want my relationship with him to go, thank you!
SARAH!! so nice to see another upload from you! your videos are always the best to watch, they just feel like a chat and they always bring me a lot of comfort!
Hello Sarah! Perfect timing, literally perfect timing! I've been struggling alot with a friendship brake up since a view days ago and this video really helped me see what has gone wrong between me and that person. I'll try and talk about the little mistakes that became bigger and bigger with that person so we hopefully don't hate eachother anymore :'). Well not hate but it does feel like that :(. But over all, thank you for helping me and alot of other people that have suggested this subject. It means alot!
can you please cover overthinking relationships/love? One thing I always tell people when they have an interest in people (I really don't like the term crush I think it's outdated) is to go for it no matter what because no matter the outcome they can learn from the experience. But right now I of course am interested in someone, I don't know if I'm in love with them or not, I enjoy spending time with them so much, but I really don't know whether or not I should make a move because I'm terrified of ruining an amazing friendship.
mrs. simons!!!!!!!! thank you for this video! it helps so much, and it gave really good insight into how to approach different things! i love your content, and thank you so much for making this! i also love the new intro and the images!
Friendships are difficult, some people stay and some people go. I recently stopped talking to an online best friend of 2 years because my mental health issues was hard for her to handle, with her saying that I ruined her vacation. I feel bad tho bc she went to high school with my older sister so she blocked my sister too
I listen to Katherine Ryan's Podcast every week and she's mentioned this saying a lot "Friends come into your life for a season, a reason or a lifetime"
I love how she acknowledges the importance of online friendships, as so many times I've been told that online friendships are just "fake ways of getting affection", but I genuinely think otherwise
i feel like platonic breakups aren't talked about or taken seriously enough, this was really validating for me, thank you
Words can't describe how much I love you and tommy you are both so sweet
Love the point about how a break up in friendship isn't treated as seriously. We should be able to grieve and mourne someone we loose :)
as someone who is in the process of cutting off a bad friend, this is really helpful and meaningful, thank you Sarah ❤️
She posted !! The queen posted !
