Welcome to the club.
I was going to edit the post but now that you're responded, I'll create a new reply. Lol.
Well, it's because of various factors. I've been estranged from real life friends... well, not because I've fell into some argument with them, so my choice of word is pretty bad in this case. It's just so happened that early on, my way of doing things changed (let's keep it vague, but these friends are not the cause), and I stopped having contact with them as a result. I opted not to create any personal social media accounts to keep in touch with them because of privacy concerns.
In regards to those on the web, well, of course, I've known many throughout the years since 2010, however I can't think of anyone as a true friend even though I appreciate their presence. Everyone I know is more of an acquaintance. I feel that I have more of a "solitary" lifestyle on the Internet. I still talk to two of the first YouTube users I've met properly in that year (2010) today. I happen to meet people and be friendly with them, but it's almost as if they have no interest to talk to me back. I often have to start personal conversations with them first rather than the other way around. Now, I know I'm not entitled to anything, but I feel if that they wanted to be real friends, then they could try doing that. It's like they aren't interested as I just mentioned. I feel like I'd remove them all from contact lists and not lose anything of value. I'm not generalizing anyone on here, by the way, since most of you are on the same Discord servers I'm in and I find I prefer group chats (or Discord servers in this case) since anyone can join in conversations at anytime. For more than almost four years now, I've been trying to get people's attention to talk to me privately on Skype and other services, but it ends up badly.
Then there are some in which I've ran into problems with privately over the dumbest things on the planet (trivial matters) and apparently I get to be the one at fault because they are "oh, so perfect" that they can do no wrong, removing me, unfollowing me, whatever without warning. You name it. A group of chatters got worked up over some status messages I posted on Skype, not knowing they could easily remove them in their feed. Someone else with the same damned issue came up a few months later. So while a person may seem friendly on the outside, he or she can become a real pain to deal with on the inside. So eventually, I get fed up enough of these, and I move on because it turns out people who do that never wanted to be your friends anyway. They'll live a miserable life in the end.
That's what I think about it all.
