the reason why i'm here is because i want to feel less lonely
this self loving journey is so difficult:( i prefer to post a thread than chat, it's better when ghosted on a thread than ghosted in chat with listener
I guess. I understand when you said about ghosting. I feel same way. It takes a lot of encourage to msg or post thread and if got ghosted. The sound comes from my mind like "As I said this will happen" . And I guess it's fear of abandonment.
@affableThinker7619 i feel you, i think i have fear of abandonment too. i'm too scared to find new friend, becauss at the end they will leave
@hopefulencounter
Regarding the ghosting, as a member you should have the option to report a listener if needed. Ghosting through chats should not be something that anyone experiences, especially on this site.
If you've considered group support, we do have quite a few group support chats. They're in the other tab on the left side if you're on desktop (I don't use the phone app, so I couldn't tell ya how it looks there). Generally, you'll get pretty quick responses there, though those are largely intended for members.
@comfortingmusician08 there were some listeners that only replied shortly too, like when i told them about my long story, they only replied with something like "ok"
i never reported those listeners , i understand maybe they're busy. but i'm even sadder after that
maybe i'll join group support again someday, thank you for your advice
@hopefulencounter Yeah technically site recommendations (last I checked quite a while ago) tell us that we (listeners) shouldn't take more than 3-4 chats at a time. Simultaneously, I think if one is going to volunteer their time to help others here that they should focus on that ; from your experience that doesn't sound like the case unfortunately and I'm very sorry to hear that.
I periodically hop on this site and my inbox is open for chats at the time of this message. I let folks know when I need to step away and also encourage leaving messages, I always respond later when I can.
@hopefulencounter
We are here for you. You're not alone.

@trueconfidant123 thankk you, this makes me feel better

@hopefulencounter
Yay, I'm so glad ! 😊
why do i feel like you might be a person who gets me? i do have some friends and i talk to them at schcool and places where we have to be, but whenever i'm not around it feels like everyone forgets about my existence im no ones priority friend nobody has texted me in over three weeks now because im on summer holiday and everyone has their own life
idk maybe im just weird and its normal to be by yourself all of the time and not tink about what your friends might be up to or ayse I'm just really unimportant

@hopefulencounter Hey 🫂
I hope you are alright. The ditchers, hope they are not leaving midst something very important, have nothing to do with our worthiness. Thats very rude, but put the blame on them not you 🫤 No matter what, we are our lifelong friend, so we need to give ourselves enough support to stay above the water 😊
You are the best dont think that way💗
@AlishbaFarhan I hope I can be my best :'')
You can do it🌸🌸💗💗
