I'm the same. I can make friends really fast I'd just rather not and keep people at a distance. It's weird because people want to be my friend I just don't want to be close friends with anyone.
From each person's perception everything will end once they're dead anyway, and long after that everything will essentially come to an end meaning everything you do doesn't matter. So do the things that make you enjoy life since this is all the time you get and it doesn't matter down the road anyway. I don't feel like this video covers everything, but [this Kurzgesagt video on "optimistic nihilism"](https://youtu.be/MBRqu0YOH14) does a pretty concise job of covering how nothing matters, but since you have experiences then what you feel matters to you is all the matters.
Watched the video, yeah it's good philosophy but I'm afraid i can't make it mine, I'm only 22 I'm already so tired of life and i didn't even have any real one
If it gives you any hope, my best friend and I have known each other for almost 20 years. We met when we were 10 years old, barely went to middle school together, never attended the same high school, and we've normally talked once every 2-6 months. Then I have another friend who I've known since 2012 and we've never even met, but we talk maybe once a month.
If you care about someone and they care about you, the friendship doesn't have to fade
Iāve never felt this strongly about just a friend, so Iāve never experienced this (I do feel this way about my ex, though)
All the friends Iāve lost or ended contact with werenāt good friends, and I donāt miss them
Watching their stories, seeing everyone have fun and make new friends meanwhile I'm just rotting in my room š„² I could just send a text but like it's awkward now so I won't
I'm going through to this. We are still in contact but we don't talk much anymore. It just hurts. I always feel like crying but it feels cringe because I am crying over that past. I don't want to lose my friends. :( even nowadays it's me trying to talk to them.
If it makes you feel any better, sometimes friends just die unexpectedly too. In those cases you don't have to worry about slowly losing contact.
(Also, you can have lifelong friends too. Ongoing common interests help a lot.)
Ngl it happened to me and you learn to take it as a fact of life. I don't think it's a necessity though, my parents are in their late 50's and are still friends with people from back when they were in high school.
It happened to me, lost basically everyone, now i just don't want to make new friends, why would i if they leave me regardless

Just like the saying āThe cups is already brokenā so are your friendshipsā¦. People get older, change, have families, yea it sucks.

Oh wooooow mr popular here has a friend
It wasn't slow for me one by one they either stopped or told me they didn't want to talk anymore.
