Gaming has been a blessing in terms of making friends. I have these people around me, we try to cheer each other up and spend time together, but I don’t feel like I really know anyone or they really know me.
My friend recently broke up with his girlfriend, and he’s having an incredibly hard time. Sometimes we just play Terraria so he has some company. He tells me things from his childhood that made him so insecure about losing people, and I just… try to be nice about it? I could share my own experiences but I don’t say anything. I don’t ever say anything to anyone. My own feelings are so weird to me.
I don’t know if it’s just depression or my last relationship, where feelings weren’t logical and the facts were all that mattered in conflict. So I learned to shut up about my feelings.
