Resolution
I need some advice before the New year. Every male friend I've had literally disappeared from my life either moving away, died, gone to jail or married and began this new life. I didn't know it until much later so it felt as if I was ghosted, I felt abandoned and unwanted.it triggered a lot of undealt with childhood issues, I tried not to take it personally but how could I not? It just seemed easy for people I loved to walk away without a explanation. I took self inventory just to see my part in the breakdown, it's always been lopsided with me accepting less while giving the most, I thought because God filled me I was supposed to deplete myself in giving to others so I could be refilled by God but all that did was make me empty and drained. I wasn't giving to be refilled I just thought that's how it worked because that's what I saw. How do I now cultivate healthy friendships where I get as good as I give? I don't want to repeat old habits that no longer serve me.

I think it is difficult to know what a relationship will be and just say to go with what is comfortable...
Hey brother I'm always looking for new friends and people to talk to.. send me a message if you want and we can hook up on email or facebook or even discord if you ever wanna just sit and talk. I know it's not the same as having a face to face friend but I find it's better than having no one at all..
Thanks my friend
