Sigh, I AM trying... but I can't bring myself to do crazy things like running for friendships. Also, I had friends, they're either on the other side of the world or just around the corner but with kids, which feels pretty much the same.

100%....making friends as an adult is not easy. It does require so much effort and willingness to make it work.

Alguna vez alguien me dijo que las amistades de la infancia las teníamos por destino y las de la adultez por elección.

En mi regreso de Tijuana a Ensenada, por pandemia, fue difícil aceptar que viejas amistades ya no se sentían igual; tan difícil como aprender lo que verdaderamente significa amistad. Ahora más grande, siendo independiente, hice un grupo de amigos nuevos. Nunca había sentido una conexión tan inmediata y genuina, como familia, como conocerse de toda la vida. La vida adulta es complicada, pero las penas con amistades son buenas ¿o cómo era? ❤️‍🩹

totalmente, cuando perdemos amistades es difícil imaginar que podremos encontrar nuevas pero la vida nos da muchas sorpresas y nos mandas nuevas personas que como dices se pueden convertir en familia. Que bello que hayas encontrado tu nuevo circulo en el lugar que llamas hogar en este momento. Un abrazote Abigail y mil gracias por leerme. <3

Thank you for putting these feelings into words, these are very common, but no one talks about the friendships that get lost in our way of growing up and the silent pain that they bring

Your words are very powerful and encourage me to keep working on the friendships that I don’t want to lose 🥹💓

Love this! It can really be hard to accept the outcome of a friendship just not working out. but also you have to remind yourself that it can be a sunk cost fallacy. Even though it lasted years, sometimes that's just what it's gonna be no matter how much time you invested. It will just remain a memory where you've learned and experienced things so no need to beat yourself up for it especially if you tried doing what you can to make it work

exactly. it's better to let them go and remember them with love than staying in a relationship that no longer works out. thanks for this comment Carlos, it means the world <3

Wow, I feel like we are living same situations as I read through your thoughtful posts, I can’t help but get goosebumps. Im at the precipice of unfortunately outgrowing some of the longest relationships and friendships I have in life. I moved to the Dominican Republic 5 years ago, after falling love and having a baby while many of my friends are back home are leading very different lives. I feel like half my time is spent feeling fomo & the other half really happy I got out of NY when I did.

I have been practicing being more outgoing in the interwebs but will need to start getting out more. Thank you for providing a lil guidance on how to do so..
