>>524368875Most people know several dozen individuals, many more than humans are made to live with and maintain relationships on. The ideal is 20 total people you know that includes family, friends, acquaintances and enemies. Modern society is so broken by Rat-Park esque decay that most people just stop trying to talk to anyone outside of those they interact with on a daily basis. That number is already too high for the human brain to properly interact with so it's normal for them to just ignore everyone outside their immediate vicinity
>>524369052i agree, but I don't mean I follow hundreds on social media - I just waited for family and a few friends to wish me a merry Christmas.I know people are busy, but
>>524368875im sorry i know that feeling sucks. on the positive side it keans you are proba ly the glue in your social group and can pretty much dictate who gets included and excluded and there is a lot of power and agency in that. some people just talk to people who take the energy to talk to them and dont have option or will to maintain friendships
>>524370205I mean, it probably means they don't care about you much but I guess what I mean to say is - don't take it personally
>>524368875Merry Christmas
>>524368875Time to go full Machiavellian OP
>>524368875How old are you?I'm mid 30s and didn't get any messages sent to me first either. The last 3 months have been horrible for me bad depression. I get the feeling my family doesn't care about the weird cousin/nephew anymore.My parents didn't even do anything for Christmas. They reheated some of my BBQ I made 2 days ago It's really kind of rotten probably going to ignore them next time they ask for a favor.
>>524371942>>524370617>>524370561yes. >>524368875violence is the answer , nothing means anything anymore. I'm dead on the inside. I can't feel anything but disgust, there is no point and it only gets worse. I'm going on disability and calling it early retirement, maybe I'll subscribe to PewDiePie? I already miss the red hats. I want to feel alive and have purpose again, but this is all bullshit hoping for shit. no, violence is the answer and you deserve a decent high score. make them pay.
