Someone once asked...

“I feel exhausted. There are two persons whom I consider as my friends. I reach out to my friends all the time and none of them reach out first to me. It wasn't used to be like this. At the start we used to talk a lot and it was fun. But now, it feels like they just use me for trauma dumping. I don't mind them sharing their woes but they should atleast listen and show some care when I share mine right? I come excited to share something that I have experienced and eventually the topic shifts towards them again. Life gets busy and I am at an important period which will decide my future career. Sometimes I may not respond to them all the time, how will it be my fault for not doing so? You're not even thinking anything about me. Ik they aren't selfish and I feel guilty thinking like this but.. like I said I'm exhausted.”

Someone answered with kindness...

Hey! I feel like you should for now focus on your career as you said it is important period going on, trust me on this no person can ever be there for you and i know it hurts so much when you have given your all but next person doesn't care or provides same interest. Also i have been through the same in my college life i had friends but afterwards i got to know them making plans without me talking shit about me and one friend just got distant like no bad things but no talking or sharing problems and all that at that time i was preparing for some exams and things got worse after but that time i realised no one actually stays wether you give your all to them they won't cherish that so it's better try to be Just like them. don't be available for them all the time,set boundaries and try to focus on yourself . Hope you get all you want in life....
