Low maintenance friendship works for me. I’m autistic & need a lot of time to isolate to prevent burning out. The friends I have understand this bc they also have their own lives. To each their own.

Reached out to my bsf of 10 years who randomly stopped talking to me for a month at a time. She told me “we’re just in different life seasons, maybe we’ll be back to chatting in 6 months” and that’s when I knew she had intended on quiet quitting me before I confronted her.

Yep. I stopped reaching out first, stopped making plans first. Been 6 months and surprise surprise haven’t heard from them. So no we’re not friends and I’m done chasing people

WOULD YOU STOP COMMUNICATING WITH YOUR PARTNER FOR 3-6 MONTHS?? Most of these people don’t even go a day without talking to their lover boy or girl and then have the audacity to call their friends needy or high maintenance !!!! the absolute delusion and hypocrisy 😍😍😍

Neurodivergent people and/or long term friends with kids can’t keep up with the demand. I can go for months without talking to my close friends and then when we see each other it’s like we’ve never not seen each other. Voice notes and slow conversations are my fave! I never expect anyone to get back to me by a certain time, unless i specifically requested them to. A phone call is for ‘now’ talking. Everything else is slow. People have lives.

They’re demoted to an ‘acquaintance’ after 2-3 months mate.

I totally agree with you. I’m tired of trying so hard and getting nothing in return. Tired of doing “catch ups” - I want to creates new memories together, not just have a 1-2 a year coffee with you, and no messaging in between. I’m just letting those people go now.

Absolutely. I can't stand this narrative "oh true friends can not talk for a while and then just pop up and start talking again" that is so disrespectful

Low maintenance is : not needing to message everyday not ignoring your friend. To have a village you have to be a part of a village I.e bare minimum celebrating friends birthdays, messaging them, celebrating any life event ( buying houses, renting a new place, new relationship, ending a relationship, graduating , promotions etc)

I mean, if you say so. As I’ve gotten older and friends move away, I’d still be there in a heartbeat if they needed me, but we don’t check in that often. Priorities shift as your life changes, you don’t love anyone less but other people in your life need more from you.

Random girls on instagram should not speak to me more than my friends, if I don’t pop up in your brain in 6 months you’re not my friend 😭😭 we need to stop catching up with our friends and start experiencing life with them!

Never liked the „they have their own life“ well but Friends ARE Life ! They should be part of my life - thats the point of friendships! Be part of my life - I want you to be part of my life !!!

Real friends are there at 2am in the morning when your life is falling apart, even if you haven't seen them all year.

Exactly this. And then they come back like they haven’t just ghosted you for 6 months. If that was a partner, you’d assume you’d broken up,no? 😅😂

Nah I think when youre 30+ you get it. Friends can have distance (proximity) partners, children, work, different friendship groups in their lives that ultimately sucks up their time.

I’m convinced that people use words like "friendship" or "love" inflationary to seem less lonely. Like in their head, saying they have like ten "friends" sounds better than saying they have one or two friends (or maybe none at all). I always notice that when someone calls me their "friend" after I treated them with basic human decency

Saya (Taylor's Version) :
I think it's important to have a variety of friends. I have one friend I talk to every other day and then one friend I only talk to a few times a year and both are close friends of mine. it's good to have someone you can talk to regularly, but it doesn't make someone less of a friend if we only see or hear each other 3 times a year.
