The main three reasons why I don't get sad when I lose a friend and what's expected versus what happens

Reasons I don't cry:

1. I don't build a strong friendship often

2. I subconsciously know they aren't my friends

3. I pay attention to the negative reactions when I talk to them.

The expectations

1. Expected to cry and get mad and feel guilty

This doesn't happen tho unless you been friends with them for years. Half the things me personally realized when I was in elementary school till current day is people can have a habit of lying regardless of age unless they choose to not(we lied as babies), people's views can change rather quickly as well, once you notice this you won't cry or anything.

2. To talk bad about them or fight with them

Now this happens often with friends they argue cause no one sees eye to eye. When you can't get along or agree with them you are sometimes expected to argue with them and yell basically just making it worse.

3. To feel lonely

You are never alone when you think of it losing one friend doesn't mean you have no friends there to support you.

The reality

You get sad but half the time you wouldn't cry about it, you'll just talk to someone else about it or just forget about it and move on if they weren't one of your best friends. People come and go but when it comes down to it it's hard regardless. At some point you understand that not everyone of your friends that smile at you are your friends and you don't lose friends you just understand who your true friends are.
