    They don't always start out awkward do they? Nooooooo. Course not. That'd be too easy. They start out real good then everybody goes their seperate way for a bit, or maybe you just disappear for a while.

    It's usually the second for me, but when I come back around, I always find myself having trouble resuming some of my frienships. Even here. Since I've been back there are names I see everyday on my buddy list that I don't really talk to. It's never personal.... just awkward. Like you're gone forever and all of a sudden a whole world of shit has changed completely, ya know?

    I dunno....

    I don't know this feeling... I don't have friends :(



    actually I grew up with my best friend and she moved for a few years and we talked to each other a year ago and it was just strange... But we got over it...

    i can disappear for a long time and come back and talk the same to my friends are i would if i saw them everyday. maybe thats just me.

    my friendships only get awkward when friends want to be more than friends and i dont.

    mostly people aren't my friends unless i feel comfortable enough to send them a nip pic out of the blue. otherwise they're people of interest who may or may not work out down the line.

    Your friends must really like you.

    Ruski, I didn't mean ALL of them by any means. haha. Just every now and then one or two fall out and I don't understand.

    Actually, I do understand. I just stop being a good friend. :confused: I don't understand how the whole thing starts though.

    exactly...

    A lot of the "friends" that I use to have all went their way and we just drifted apart, we tried to talk and it just was pretty pointless.. Things and life change and so do people...

    I guess. I just take it hard, I suppose. I try to consider myself a man of loyalty and that just doesn't feel loyal. Not like they did me wrong or we just don't have fun any more. I just look at their name in my phone and leave them out when I text and call etc. It's weird.

    i have a family event later in may i wish to god i could get out off which i have done many times before but this time an aunt who lives very far away is going to be there so im more or less forced to do the awkward situation thing for the day. it will be hell for me. i used to be close with many of my cousins but its been so long and we have nothing in common. i might fake an epilepsy attack and go to the hospital instead i saw a girl do it to get out of a fight once its all i have.

    This kind of shit happens in real life so I'm assuming it could happen here too, although it would be disasterous to lose a fun friend. I think I have some good solid ppl I can count on though... even a few years down the line.

    Perhaps we change in the meantime, while we don't talk to one another? Maybe. I don't know, I don't usually have this feeling... Maybe once in a while, like when I haven't seen my best friend in some years and I gave her my email address to her parents when I met them unexpectedly and she never wrote to me... there I know, something's definitely changed... She's been living abroad for some good years, that's why we lost touch with one another.

    I have two friends I can stay out of touch with for a long time, like years, and when I see one of em again it's just like it always was. I had another friend I thought was like that, but when I came back after a year anna half, something was different. awkward, I guess.

    The most awkward friendships are post-relationship ones, arghhh.
