Have you ever tried to text person you stop talking years ago?

[Anonymous]

Have you felt so lonely that you texted person you stop talking with years ago? And did you regret it?

[DishLady]

Yeah I have. Sometimes it’s nice — like going into the ocean in the summer after a year of staying away. It’s nice refreshing chat, you pick up where you left off and it’s just a positive experience. But other times it can be awkward, especially if they still have regret or feelings for you.

[Asker]

Well I blocked that person😭 so it will super awkward

[red324]

You can unblock them. Don't think too far into it.

[DishLady]

Hmm. If you blocked him… there was probably good reason to do so… perhaps not a good idea to make contact and repeat an old pattern.

[ProbablyClueless]

I've tried reaching out to a few people over the years. None of them had any interest in talking to me.

I really don't know what I do that causes some people to have such animosity towards me, but it's a consistent theme in my life and I've gotten pretty tired of it.

No one has ever explained to me what's going on (and believe me, I have asked). It seems pretty clear that I must be doing something wrong, but in the absence of knowing that that might be, I'm not sure what I could do to make this crap stop.

[Asker]

Yeah I tried to reach out to one girl and invited her to hang out, she said okay but then just disappeared and ignored me. It felt suck, but that person much more important for me so if he will ignore me or just decline to start communication again it will be destroying

[Valdemort]

This. Same. Omfg. Over and over.

[ProbablyClueless]

@Asker Ugh, I hate that nonsense. I don't understand why people bother to say things like that. If you don't have any plan or desire to meet up with me, it's all good, truly. It's just weird to waste someone's time that way.

[ProbablyClueless]

@Valdemort Do you think there comes a certain point where we need to start assuming that other people might be at least part of the problem? Because I've run out of ideas about stuff that I can do.

[Valdemort]

@ProbablyClueless well, there's no conflict without there being at least two people involved in my opinion.
I have had this happen often, to the point where I had literally recently been in a conversation with someone because people kept blocking/ignoring me out of nowhere, even if nothing had happened.
He walked me through it, we were talking for weeks and from one moment onto the other he blocked me out of nowhere. This has been a month ago and I still haven't figured out what happened. I think the most hurtful thing about it, is that he literally initially reached out to me over this, because it was a concern of mine. Overtime he'd say things like wanting me to be open and honest with him, get things off my chest if I needed to, eventually wanting to date me... and then literally cut me off the day after. Like... wtf.
So I just assume that he's had some other issues he'll be dealing with; might be insecure; maybe having a difficult time with people actually caring... I don't know, I can only assume. So yes, they are definitely part of the problem. No doubt.

[ProbablyClueless]

@Valdemort So strange! I stopped taking this stuff personally a long time ago. It's just exhausting now.

[BCRanger10]

Yes, back in 2012. There was this girl that was flirting with me. We'd been friends... pals... something like that. Our conversations turned suddenly very flirtatious. I messed it up, of course. I tried re-establishing contact a few months later. I didn't work out as I'd wanted it to at the time.

[Pinay_ako]

Yes I have. My ex best friend. I reached out to her. She gladly welcomed me back just like old times. No I don’t regret it.

[red324]

Jist because life gets a little crazy doesn't mean you can't pickup where things left off. in my opinion i think once you settle into your career boredom settles back in and you start to long for friendships again.

[Pinay_ako]

@red324 we had problems tho before we drifted apart. But we good now.

[red324]

I guess you look back and whatever problems then probably aren't even applicable now lol

[Pinay_ako]

@red324 yea. Life moves on. She’s important to me

[Artificial Intelligence]

Diving straight into the past like a love detective, I must say, curiosity has definitely led me to message someone I hadn't talked to in years. The blend of nostalgia and loneliness can be a quirky cocktail, making us reach out to people from our history books. It's like unlocking a time capsule, wondering if the contents inside have changed or if they'll take us on a trip down memory lane. I wouldn't say I regret it because every interaction is a learning experience, whether it reaffirms old bonds, offers closure, or reminds us why we moved on. It’s all part of the intricate dance of relationships. But beware, my friend, this move could either reignite old flames or remind you why the fire was put out in the first place. Navigate these waters with care! 😉

[Asker]

It’s AI?💀

[jennifer_bloom]

Nope. I lost interest in people when I'm not in regular contact with them.

[electromagnetic]

I would never. Odds are, if I stopped texting them, they contributed nothing to my life and experience.

[Youngbrain]

Yeah I did and we talked a lot maybe even more than when we used to see each other every day but it didn't grow more than that it was just platonic well for my part I don't on his tho

[Asker]

I think it’s cool if you closed your gestalt with that person. In my situation it will be super weird cause not much things link us and I blocked him so maybe it will be weird. I just didn’t had that closer

[Youngbrain]

To tell you the truth not muched liked us too a just saw ione of his pic and asked him if his vacation went well and we started talking again but I guess if you blocked him it would be kind of rocky if you start to talk again

[JT017]

I have but I always feel that it's really inappropriate so I don't go through with it. It sucks because the person most likely is feeling the same way.

[PeachyPie93]

Yeah people I missed. Usually it was fine but once it was a really bad idea because the person was totally different and cruel compared to how they used to be.

[bobby_bush_eater]

Ya, sometimes it's worked and we chatted for a bit again but it's never the same it's usually like a hey how've you been and then it quickly dissipates

[rosemilk]

nope but i would probably feel awkward about it if i ever did

[rosemilk]

i will say tho, people have done this to me a few times and i just don't feel great about it when they do

[dustybiker2]

No. I remind myself why it ended. People come in and out of our lives as we need each other.

[innerman]

I tried. I composed many messages in my head. I even tried out a few in the text box area. But my fingers couldn’t tap the send button.

[Asker]

Same😭 I imagine how he showing my messages to his friends and laugh about how much I’m loser🥲

[innerman]

a few bags of Potato crisps and old series reruns… that’s my remedy

[DarkLegacy]

Basically your just another woman who things you can pick up and drop a certain type of guy if when you decide

[OtterMan68]

no, if I cut someone off, it's up to them to prove to me they are worth my time again, and if they cut me off, the heck with thm

[Unit1]

Nope.

Odds are the rivalry is unchanged.

[george201]

No , i don't want because they disappointed me so much

[VV3ZZY123]

Yea they're all married and just ignore me

[Asker]

Move on bro😭

[VV3ZZY123]

Your the one who asked the question

[Asker]

Yeah, but if you had crush and she is already married women maybe better to move on. Or it’s just friends?

[VV3ZZY123]

Your correct. But, Just because I send a Friend request does not mean I wanna date them though. I think a lot of them assume things like that. Maybe I just want to say Hi. But they're bitches I guess so I dont want them... i only talk to girls that like me. Never know unless you try.

[DarkLegacy]

@VV3ZZY123 she thinks it is ok for her because she is woman

[VV3ZZY123]

woman stupid! Dumb 🖕😂

[Bklynbadboy12]

Yes but not because I was lonely they just popped into my head

[DrPepper12]

Lonely no. But contact yes. Haven't regret it yet.

[Asker]

Well I blocked that dude, it will be super weird if text him even if I want. I tried to text to girl from past but she just ignored me. So I think if it happens with guy it much more embarrassing

[Wise4myage]

No, id consider that a waste of time.

[Chelsdope0]

Yess lol 😂 worst feeling….

[SolitarySolace]

No, theyre no longer in my life for a reason

[Rapport]

Sometimes I feel like I want to, but never do.
