I want to make connections and form close friendships. I also want to spend my time alone and not talk to anyone. Kill me.
Friends that like to ritualistically check in all the time find me cold and aloof but I can't function that way, and I've driven myself crazy in the past trying to force that kind of interaction. I just want close buds that don't care if it's been days or weeks since I last said 'hi' and are happy to roll with the same irregular type of contact. It's not that I don't care or that I'm not prepared to step up and be there when people need me, but the notion that you're a rubbish friend if you don't hang every week, text every other day or whatever just doesn't gel with me and it never has.
There has to be other people that want friendships like this right? I'm lonely and feel like I'm drifting away from myself.
