>playing with a friend>he says he has to go now>he's still online but playing a different game>ask him why he lied>changes his profile to offline>his play hours are increasing
i'd do the same if i had a 'friend' stalking and taking note of what i do online
Faggot
>gift a game to a friend>he never plays it
Always the threads with spongebob images.
You're friend is a bad person and you deserve better.
>>736397292and this is why I use appear offline. I'm not your girlfriend dude, I don't want to spend every waking moment with you. I like to do my own thing sometimes.
>>736397292Tell us what you and him were playing vs what he went to play instead OP or you are a faggot
>>736397292Your friend wants alone time but knows you're too much of a whiny faggot to handle that concept.
What game were you playing together
>>736397367> Get gifted a game from a friend> Trying to finish some games on my backlog first I promise I'll play it this year
you wanna fuck him or what op?
>>736397498We were playing Overwatch and then he went offline to play Fatal Frame 2
>>736397367you should gift games with the expectation that they will never play it.it is more difficult than you think to develop the mental fortitude to try a new game out. often times the price is one of the least impactful things in this aspect.you should think of it as though you are giving more money to a developer that you think deserves it.
>>736397523>Friend gifts me a game>Tell him no thanks it's not what I usually play>Insists it's "the best game ever" and wants to see me play it>It's ControlSo...how do I get out of this sticky situation /v/?
>>736397292this is the part where you realize you're the side nigga people just put up with but no one would ever pick you first for shit
>>736397292he meant that he has to go play something else because you are giant faggot but he doesn't hurt your feelings.
>>736397367You really should think about whether the person being gifted to would legitimately be interested in your gift.
>>736397712play it so poorly that he ends up giving up out of frustration.
>>736397367>>736397523hate getting gifted games. I usually have a lineup of games I'm playing, I appreciate the gesture but I don't wanna drop stuff and lose my rhythm. or maybe I'm just not in the headspace to play that kind of game right now. but then I feel guilty about not playing it and feel pressured to even if I'm not going to enjoy it as much as I should. just a shitty position to be in. unless it's a game I've explicitly expressed interest in, just get me a gift-card or something if you really want to get me a gift..
>>736397292what did you expect him to say when you confronted him? autistic niggas like you are so clueless, you got your answer because he didn't want to say to your face that he was just tired of you. So not only are you annoying, but you probably are known to crash out like a dramagic baby and he didn't want to start that up again.
>>736397367I just never gifted a game to the person in question again, if they don't like my taste, then I won't subject them to it. I've got a bunch of games on my wishlist and never have received a game from it as a gift, though I have gotten a steam card as a gift exactly once since I started using steam for more than a decade.
>>736397956>and never have received a game from it as a gift>doesn't realize how much of a colossal faggot he isI wonder why!
>>736397367I've gifted many games to friends, all of which have never played what I've gifted them despite them stating they've wanted it before.
>>736397292Holy fucking autism. Are you socially inept or just retarded? You're a whiny, bitchy little fag and your friend doesn't want to waste all his time playing with your autistic ass.Take the fucking hint, you friendless loser. Kill yourself while you're at it. You'd do everyone suffering your existence a favor.
>>736397841I mean, from the opening I can tell in going to fucking hate it...it's just Alan wake but with ray tracing. I'm a ex pro quake player so it's hard to fake being bad lol
>>736398029>I've gifted many games to friends, all of which have never played what I've gifted them despite them stating they've wanted it before.so you come here to whine about itwonder why they arent interested in your shitty gifts
>>736397712launch it and then alt tab>no achievementsyou have them disabled.
It's crazy how people just disregard your feelings and treat you like trash even though you have trauma that is similar in nature.It's like can't you just be a decent person for once?
>>736397292you dont see how your behavior is causing this? youre the problem
>>736397367Get better taste. This shit never happens to me. I buy my friends games & they all play them several times more than I do
>>736398148>It's like can't you just be a decent person for once?OP very fucking clearly can't, no. He has to make his shitty problems everyone else's like the whiny cuck he is.
>>736397367Your gifts are shit.Your taste is trash.Nobody likes you.Kill yourself.
I remember I had a friend on PS4 call me out for setting my profile to invisible. He sent me a screenshot of a trophy that I just earned.
>>736398119I'm not whining about it. Is making a statement whining? The fuck is your problem faggot?
>>736397292>actually autistic retardyou sound like you have down syndrome too
>>736398148This is the last place you should look for compassion in.
>>736398273Stop whining, dipshit. Take your beta ass to cuckold.com or whatever and watch your girlfriend get fucked by actual men that can please her.
>>736397367>Get gifted a game>It's shitThanks for nothing
>>736398148who the fuck brought trauma into this? if my friend kept trauma dumping on me I'd probably distance myself too. I do have trauma and I am all for addressing that kind of thing and talking about it in appropriate settings, but I don't wanna think about that shit when I'm playing vidya. there's a time and a place.
>>736398203>>736398295Lying to someone so you can ignore them is abusive behavior. People are so two faced and cruel that they act like your friend one moment then "go invisible" and treat you like dirt.
>>736397494That’s fine but it’s been years since we’ve gamed or had a conversation :/
>>736398398>his reaction to offline himself is a sign that OP is not a very nice person to be aroundThis. The guy is clearly entitled and demanding. Nothing you'd call an actual friend.>>736398415Kill yourself. Holy shit dude.
>>736397712Just give it a try?It really isn't a bad game.
>>736398128You mite b onto something. Could just alt tab it and use the achievement unlocker when I close it. Have a fox anon.
>>736398070>>736397874The real autism: not realizing it’s a shitpost mocking those people.
>>736397292Stop being a woman.
>>736398519>I WAS MERELY PRETENDING TO BE RETARED
>>736397292Bit frustrating when a mate of mine does this.>"Bro i'm tired its getting late">"Its hard to come on because of day lights savings">visibly playing Call of duty for hours and hours but never join any voice chat and ignores invites 9/10.>will immediately leave as if 1000 tranquilizers had been injected if you stop playing one of his favourite games or play a game incorrectly>Denies that anything is wrong despite coming on less and less.I'm tired boss.
>>736398485I just might you know...
>overwatchwell, i would do the same if my friend invites me to play gay games
>>736397367they owe you nothing
I do this when I start playing porn games because I don't want steam/discord to show the shit I'm playing to my friends.Maybe your friend is just wanking it you are now imagining your closest friend's penis
>>736398549You're the same kind of faggot autist as OP.YOU are the problem.YOU employ behavior causing this.YOU are demanding.YOU are entitled.YOU are needy.YOU are exhausting.and most importantlyYOUAREADOGSHITFRIENDotherwise you wouldn't get treated this way. Kill yourself, you fucking moron.
>>736398490>Literally just american nightmare but with ray tracing Look, I'm glad you like it, I don't care for 1 trick devs and their 1 note games. I like fucking BAR, arma and shit like that.
>>736397367I play every single game I get out of /v/ anons posting steam keys on gift threads(as long as they aren't worse-than-bad rats tier shovelware) despite never befriending the anons.Anyone who refuses to give gifts even a 10 minute try is a bad person.
>>736397292If you have friends you shouldn't be on this website
>>736397292>>he says he has to go nowIf he literally said this word for word then he didn't lie because it can mean a lot of things.>I have to go from overwatch now>I have to go away from you nowAnd then you immediately just call him a liar? Yeah I'd ignore your ass too instead of having to "explain myself" to some whiny online faggot like your my fucking mom or something.
>>736398669Are you retarded and actually think like this or are you jerking off thinking posting this will make me kill myself or something
>>736397292you are either a clingy annoying faggot or suck at games, probably both
>>736397367you're a good person.people only care about themselves and are selfish, also see >>736398631they are up their own asses.its 90% of society now.godless society.
>>736398669>Reddit spacing
>>736398415At no point did the guy actually lie about anything though. He said he had to go, he never said why, at least not that OP disclosed to us. It's not like he said he had an emergency or had to go to work or something. He was just done playing with OP and wanted to do something by himself, so he had to go. That's fine. You're not entitled to anybody's time, it's okay to step away from a social interaction at any time for any reason you like as long as you haven't made any binding promises to be there. OP should have recognized that's what happened when he saw the guy playing another game and moved on, but instead accused the guy of doing something wrong (which he didn't), and made it clear he's monitoring the guy's activity, which is weird and codependent. The other guy was in the right and it's exactly people like OP that make me use invisibility on gaming platforms.
>>736397367Look mate I do not fucking care about card and streamer-bait games, just because I found a card minigame in a completely different game funny does not mean you have to force your favorite trash down my throat.
>>736397367I feel bad for having done this myself. I just don't have the time, or the storage.
>have online friend for over 10 years>sometimes, he has a meltie or aggro rants>i let him>one day, im not doing well, i have an aggro rant / meltie>they remove and block meyou're a shit friend if you do this btw.
I gifted my friend $200 worth of games to play together and he never played any of it
>>736397367don't be obsessive you won't ever have real friendships if you do that give people space>>736397367was it on their wishlist? all the games i haven't played weren't on my wishlist
>>736398735>Anyone who refuses to give gifts even a 10 minute try is a bad person.You are not owed anything. Nobody owes you anything.You gave someone a gift? OK? And?They don't even owe you a thank you.You're a spoiled, entitled, selfish prick for having this much fucking expectation.>>736398813See? This is exactly what I mean. Instead of some actual self reflection which might've led you to understanding how much of a beta cuck faggot you are, you reply with this.You're exactly the kind of person I said you were.
>>736398332I'm going to guess that you were that friend that was never thankful for anything his friends did for him, huh?
>>736398992So? What about it? Even if it was 2000 bucks worth of games, why the everloving fuck do you demand he plays them with you?
>>736398415Anon.Online friends will never be real friends.Did you think people were joking when they keep saying this?
>>736398992Did you at least confront him about it?
>>736399064If you do something for another person, it's because you wanted to. If you do something for another person and expect something in return, you're a dogshit excuse for a human being and should remove yourself from the gene pool.
>>736398907His "friend" is dishonest and a liar. They is abusive to those closest to them because they knows there will be no repercussions. They abuse a system that allows them to go "invisible" which is akin to violence. Just be honest with people and try and be a good person, it's not even that hard.
>>736397292Lmao
>>736397523Backlogs aren't real.
>>736399104yes they are, only frogposting losers like (You) that want to spread their misery say this, the only person i ever knew that said this was some faggot divorced alcoholic veteran that never shut the fuck up about being a faggot alcoholic divorced veteranit's literally disproven daily by people meeting irl after meeting online, i've met a ton of internet friends irl and have known them 5+ years now
>>736399143>His "friend"Just say "my friend" OP we all know it's you kek.
>>736399183That's why you should devote your life to explosion magic and explosion magic only. Sillybilly.
>>736399038What was the last sincere interaction you've ever had with a person
>>736399283he won't reply to this
>>736398549Lmao. Knew a guy like this, I just stopped talking to him and replaced him with a different friend. This becomes a non-issue when you realize how easy it is to do this. It's not like going through a breakup with a girl where you have to go through 1000 rejections until one woman finally decides to let you hit.
>>736399183You forgot to mention she's trans
>>736399219I offer you some wisdom and you just spit on my reaction image?Also the exception is not the rule.Online friends will never be real/true friends, that doesn't mean you can't have fun with them though.
>>736397367>2019>Hunt Showdown released>Discord "friend" gifts it to me unprompted>Too much of a little bitch back then to decline>I fucking hate extraction shooters>Play a few games with him under peer pressure>After a few hours tell him it's not for me and I'll never play it again>He absolutely crashes out saying he missed rent to buy me this game (?????)>He gets our discord "friend" group to harass me whenever I'm online>Even end up sending me death threats>Block them all after a few days of this>Will never accept "gift" games again
>>736399038Autism
>>736399143>His "friend" is dishonest and a liar.He is not. At no point did he lie.Neck yourself any day.>>736399183Pic related is you. You caused this yourself, fucking idiot.
>>736398968Had a friend that would flame everyone in our skype chat but hated getting flamed back so we called him a glass cannon, he rage quit after and blocked everyone
>>736399140Where did I ever expect something in return? Re-read my original statement mate.
>>736399361>Pic related is you. >You caused this yourself, fucking idiot.if only i was more aggresive and just raped her, right?
>>736399283Just now. What about you? And don't tell me it was with one of your """friends""" who, for the 80th time, tried to make you understand how much of a faggot you are.
>>736399183>whenever i talk to my other friends, sometimes they bring up her and then pause "oh wait yeah we can't mention her" and its all awkward and shit.This only happens because you are single and they can tell, fix it by dating a woman, preferably her mom.
>clingy faggot that stalks people online is talking about showing sincerity and compassionlollmao
>>736399361Going invisible is peak dishonesty. It should be removed as an option as it is traumatic for certain individuals who feel like they are having something hidden from them.You should have nothing to hide anyway if you lead an honest life so idk why it exists as an option
>>736397694ThisI buy games I'm iffy about playing all the time, my steam library has easily 150, 200 games I've bought 'cuz they were on sale, but haven't played yet. I'm strategic, I buy things on sale, since I know if I ever do want to play it, it won't be on sale thenSometimes I will. The mood strikes, and I want something fresh, but that moment has to arrive.
>>736399143He didn't lie, and only went invisible after OP was overbearing and creepy.
>>736399351Bad friend. (you, not him)
>that online friend / person who always appears offline, even when their online, or is permenantly on "do not disturb"why do people do this? if you want an immediate red flag for certain people, this is it.im talking ftm, mtf, pan, poly, athiests, etc. all do this.
>>736399425You had a girl be friends with you and you expected she'd spread her legs and let you fuck her while you are the embodiment of McKenzie. If you had looks or anything going for you, rizz as they say these days, you'd not be here telling us about a failed attempt at getting your dick wet like 6 years later.Get it through your head, mate. Chicks don't like you.
>>736399498Not answering a question is lying. Real friends will always answer a question.
>>736398119>Hey man, this game looks cool, hopefully I can own it some day>Here, I'll buy it for you>never plays itThat's just entitlement at that point. You sound like you were that person who doesn't want to admit they may be an asshole.
>>736399471The guy clearly didn't think he had anything to hide at first and assumed you -uh I mean OP, would just be a reasonable and mature person that accepted the guy wanted to play something by himself and wouldn't make a big deal of it. But OP showed his true colours and made the whole thing weird, so the guy responded in turn by going invisible.
>>736399564>reddit spacingdidnt read, k thx bye
>>736399471>Traumatic for certain individualsYou can just say OP
>>736399471You should be removed. That'd help everyone greatly.
>>736399471NahSometimes I want to play by myself, and don't want to have to answer questions about it. I don't want to feel pestered to do something or pressured to do something, and this way I'm saving both of us the energy of that interaction. If I dropped everything every time someone wanted to play some co-op Bloons or something, that they end up only wanting to play a single game of, if they even finish, I'd have no focus.
>>736399471Imagine being this much of a bitch
>>736397694>mental fortitude >to play a video gameJfc peak zoom zoom shit right here. Little fags addicted to Fortnite and phone slop.
>>736399575What question? The guy said he had to go, to which OP accused him of being a liar. There was no question being answered in that exchange, the guy just said he had to go, which could be for any reason, he doesn't need to explain himself.
>>736397292>My sister wants Until Dawn>She never plays games and doesn't have a way to play the game>I buy it for her and let her play it on my PS4>She loves it but sucks at playing the game>She asks me to play it while she watches>I play it even though it doesn't interest me>We enjoy the boding time together and I get increasingly more invested in the campy reddit tier video game>She watches me play parts of 3 times and never mentions it again>I keep playing because I am investedNot sure what anons are going to get out of this but I don't think this is a bad experience.
>>736399436Anon forgive me if I don't believe you are being very sincere with people in this thread
>poorfag friends keep crying they have no money to buy Denuvo games>they beg me to borrow my steam account>create a family account and share some of my games with them>"OMG! Thanks so much, anon!!! You're the best!!!">after beating all my denuvo games they start begging me to buy specific games "for the group">"please buy Crimsom Desert, anon! Please buy X, Y, Z!!!! You have way more money than us please buy buy buy">now if I want to play those games I have to private them before buying so my friends don't think I'm a little bitch that caves in to pressure Sorry...
>>736399581>That's just entitlement at that point. You sound like you were that person who doesn't want to admit they may be an asshole.Oh, I'm sorry princess. Did I hurt your widdle feelings? Fuck off man, I don't owe you fucking shit just because you gave me something.You're a shit person if you expect something in return for giving another person something.
>>736399596He's just an angry nigger baiting replies.
>>736399471>>736399575Imagine being "friends" with an unhinged moron such as this, it's a miracle the friend just went invisible instead of just blocking the guy everywhere.People like this really have zero self-awareness.
>>736399347I'm not OPNice backpedaling after you got the wind blown out of your sails you miserable faggot, just admit you couldn't make any real friends online so you want others to be miserable tooYour post brought nothing positive to the thread and I doubt you'll ever have anything positive to say to anyone
>meet a group of bros on 4chan around 15 years ago>we create a steam group>everything is fine and dandy for many years>we all chat every day for hours, shared interests and (almost) drama free>after a couple years, we transition to discord and some member's irl friends (and even w*men) are invited>new members are shocked with the group's edgy humor and racism>group disbands (they probably created a new discord)>I wasn't talking much since the irl friends joined and people never bothered inviting meI miss you guys
>>736399471these type of people who seem to hate talking or interraction and block people and appear offline, they seem to be the ones who have the most friends and people respect them?why is that? are autistic people just more high empathy and normal people are assholes?
>>736399531>why do people do this?because of freaks like OP who stalk you, monitor all your activity and expect you to be available 24/7 for them. piss off with that shit and maybe I wouldn't be feel the need to hide to protect my peace.
>>736399593>>736399608>>736399625>>736399630>>736399649>>736399657Now everyone is piling in on me likes bullies. I pray for a world where people are kind to each other and not so awful.
>>736399471>>736399732The only time I ever notice people being offline I just wonder if they died or are okay, I have people on my list I block and unblock every so often lol, annoying fucksThey're just as bad as people that use DND 24/7 on discord, no one thinks you're special and no one is impressed by how busy you try to posture as
>>736399531>"do not disturb"This one actually has a practical purpose.Most things with a do not disturb or similar function, also disable notifications when that option is checked. If someone needs to either control the sounds their phone makes during the day, or is easily distracted by it, this can be a genuinely functional decision>Just disable notifications elsewhereUnreliable. In my experience, telling your phone or whatever to not bother you, is less consistent then telling the thing to not bother you. Phones are designed to annoy you, while apps are generally designed to serve you, so this isn't that shocking
>>736399697His friends literally expressed the desire to own the game, he gifted it to them. If you ask for something, someone gives it to you, and then you take it for granted, that makes you the shit person.
>>736399689I know. It must be extremely shocking for a beta male pussy faggot like you to encounter an actual man for a change instead of screaming into a crab bucket of your own making day and night that pat you on the back for conforming to your mental illness of your own making.Damn, dude. Imagine being so fucked in the head you have to cope like this when confronted with something you can't comprehend properly.Do my posts shatter your thin bubble of reality you live in or something? Must be world shattering.
>>736399763christ no wonder the guy ghosted you. you're fucking insufferable. go to therapy and stop dumping your issues onto people.
>>736399763it's just how /v/ is buddy, 4chan in general is full of ssri laden normalfags that just want to spread misery and negativityyou'd genuinely get better advice on a discord server for a non gaming related topic
>>736397292take up stoicism
>>736399693Give them 1 finger and they'll want the entire hand. Tale as old as time itself.
>>736399819>an actual man
>>736399816And? So what if I wanted the game and you gifted it to me. Why the everloving flying fuck are you so entitled and demand I play it? What makes you and your gfit so special?
>>736399819real men don't talk shit on the internet completely unprovoked at people who are obviously vulnerable and troubled, you're just a broken weak faggot trying to posture and make himself feel betternot him btw before you accuse me of it lol
>>736399763>I stalk my friends and call them liars>I'm not unkind btwYou should have your internet access removed.
>>736399932Nice pic. Didn't expect you to post an image depicting how much of a colossal moronic faggot you are but you do you, sport.
>>736399893Weak bait mate.
>>736399671>>She watches me play parts of 3 times and never mentions it again>>I keep playing because I am investedShe wanted you to fuck her and was using the game as an excuse, you missed out because of autism bro.
What has made people incapable of ignoring bait?
is having friends overrated?does it just create more problems instead of happy moments?
>>736400004Concession accepted.Next time, choose to keep your mouth shut and stay in your lane where you belong.
>>736399531I am permanently offline on shitcord because I do not like every single person having the ability to keep tabs on me on when I decide to open the webpage.I will properly respond to everyone's messages but I am not going to enable this stalker gateway crap.Back in my day we sent eachother sms's and they didn't force me to publicly spreas my asshole every single time like most of these new internet-based message platforms do.

>>736399763This right here, is why it's easier to set to do not disturb or invisible or something.If I explain why I don't feel like something, it hurts people like you. If you want to have fewer people lying about it, be someone who can be told no. I know some of us have a little more mental and emotional baggage, and this isn't the same difficulty task for everyone. I'm sorry about that. But, that's not my fault. You know the episodes of My Little Pony, where Pinkie really, really, aggressively wants people to have a good time, and won't leave them alone, and then they tell her to leave them alone, and Pinkie goes into a depressive spiral and starts threatening to kill herself because someone didn't want another fucking party today?That's this. Except My Little Pony overwhelmingly said "no, you should absolutely let this person run all of your lives" which is bullshit. No, you need to learn to accept when people have other things they want to do.
>>736399347frogposters are universally retarded
>>736400018Coombrains get the rope.
>>736399531covert narcissismpeople use dnd to try to signal how important and special they are
>>736400080No bait but I know that you are broken to the point you come on /v/ to whine about your inability to have healthy relationships.
>>736399814thank you. the expectation that you have to be immediately available to everybody all of the time is one of the most toxic consequences of smartphone culture. I have dnd on basically all notifications, with the exception of texts from my mom. I hate having my phone buzzing or desktop beeping all the goddamn time. I'll check messages on my own time, and I do it fairly frequently, but it's on my own time. also filters out the genuine people. the people who are patient and don't expect immediate replies from me always end up being better friends.
>>736399819Surely it cannot be called good bait when you have to embarrass yourself this hard to get replies
>>736399763>Says retarded statement>Gets called out on it>WAAHH you are so meanEither excellent bait or an actual drooling moron. congrats if it's the former OP

>>736400160>Projection the Post>>736400168I don't think. I simply am.The fact I'm getting under you faggots' skins this much is proof of it.You wish you could be like me but the sad reality you live in is that you will never ever come even close to being like me.
>>736397367>gift a game to a friend>he never plays it>share a library with him>I get to play it anyways
>>736397367>Friend tells me to buy game to play it with him>Buy it>He never plays it with me
>>736400283And that never evoked any kind of "huh I sure wonder why it's like this" in you?
>>736399183>>"we can't be friends anymore anon">>blocks me from literally everythingdid you a favor 2bh, being friends with a girl you have feelings for is just assbest to move on completely and shoot your shot somewhere else
>get gifted game>remove and block 'friend' who gifted it
>>736397367I usually play games I get gifted months/years after I get them.
>edate a guy i met on this board>buys me games >disappointed that im not a tranny, so disappointed he just stops playing video games altogether, zero online presence

>>736400378small fry>get gifted game>fake the hours and achievements with SAM and then ask for another game >repeat ad infinitum
>>736400054you just have to be selective about who you're friends with. just have a couple of really strong friendships instead of trying to be friends with everybody. I treat people I game with online basically like coworkers. I'll be friendly with you when we're on the job, we can have fun and banter, but when I clock out I have my own life and have no obligation to interact with you.

>>736398148What are you, a woman?
>>736399720You accuse me of being miserable yet you sound pretty miserable yourself though.Online friends will never be real friends and you should understand why after reading these millions of stories about "friends" spontaneously blocking each other and never speaking to eachother again. I'm not saying it's impossible to create frienda online, but being online is what enables too many things like being able to immediately pull the plug on a whim and then just "replacing" the friend like a post in this thread literally casually mentions.If I need help drilling some holes on my wall I will call my real friend, not my mmo buttbuddy that basically only/mainly expects me to exist to play games with him. He has his own life, I have mine. Again there are exceptions but these are not the rule.>>736400114no u
>>736400283Just find his address and go play the games on his computer. ez
not replying to a frogfag again
i had a friend that started stalking me and i had to remove them from my friends. they used to try to gift me games all the time and i rejected them. i just had enough of his incel rage fits. i still feel about it because i liked talking to him in the end he only cared to talk to me because i'm a girl and kept trying to date me.
>>736400639you will never be a woman
>>736400639
>>736400639Samefag, i'm trans btw if that matters
>>736399219Yea but that doesn't disprove his point. Online friends still aren't real friends. The real friends are the ones that turn into irl friends, but that won't happen for most of your online friends to begin with.
>>736400639you could have just said you're a tranny and it would have been better than lying
>>736400615Good.I will keep posting them and I'll reply to (You) instead.
>>736400709>x isn't x but x is xb8
anyone else cannot just make friends? no one ever approaches me and when i approach others, its just a humiliation ritual
>>736400639Why do you say "they" and "them" like a faggot but then properly say "his" anyway.
>>736400745>X usually isn't Y>But sometimes X can turn into Y
>>736400745You just fail to comprehend anon.

>>736397367>Get gifted game that wasn't even on my wishlist>Feel obligated to engage with something I had zero interest in
>>736397292Basically, he's a coward.When people do this to me I just say 'sorry bro, I'm really into this game and not in the mood for multiplayer rn.'
>>736400792I for one consider every unknown person as a threat. that's why it's impossible to interact with anyone let alone make friends
>when tism friend is off his medshere we go
>>736400963Bottom hands typed out this post.
>>736400792Yea, most of life is you having to make the effort. The easy life is only allotted to some people. I had a childhood friend that was approached and liked by everyone where I was usually met with the opposite response. Shit I was physically abused a lot as a kid because a shithead kid lied about me to his older brother. You learn to get over it after awhile.
>>736397292>remove and block because you can't get a fucking clue
>>736400570>Online friends will never be real friendsYou can only understand this when you actually have a single real friend. Now check where we are.
>>736401001>bpd tranny friend is accusing me again yep
>gift furry porn meme game to a friend as a joke>troons out and comes out as furry within 3 monthswelp
>>736401069>Shit I was physically abused a lot as a kid because a shithead kid lied about me to his older brother. You learn to get over it after awhile.Clearly he didn't beat you often enough. What a faggot.
>>736401069i was thinking, its literally privilege. having a nice charismatic personality is defined by childhood circumstances and how you were raised. people with real friends should pay taxes
>>736401226He probably saw it as a sign you will accept him, and has been thinking about coming out as a trannyfur for a while.
>>736401226
>>736401270Ow the edge
>>736401314Genes play a bigger part then you realize.
>>736401314>people with real friends should pay taxeswhat about the ones that had to work to get those real friends?
>>736401370Oof the pussy
>>736397292Is that a bad thing? I have an online friend I play fighting games with and after an hour or two I say I’m done and move onto a single player game for variety.
>>736397367>get game gifted>always forget to try it out>play it after we breakup>it was really nice
>>736401519Of course it's a bad thing. You are lying and deceitful. You're a terrible person for not wanting to spend 100% of your time with one single other person!
>>736401664kek
>>736397292he's playing with other friends bro, maybe he made plans or he has a weekly schedule for group sessions
>>736397292Ah my bad man, next time I'll just straight up tell you that you're a borderline insufferable faggot and I only put up with you because I feel sorry for you, and that I'm gonna play something else, ALONE, because your sped ass has completely drained my social interaction stamina.
>>736397367>gift a 1€ game to a friend>he is to cheap to buy it>have fun with him for 100 hoursSometimes I just never understand people. I had to buy the game to him so he would play with us
I have 5 steam friends for the past decade and I don't remember why nor have we ever interacted
>>736397367OP should gift this man a game for saving the thread.

>>736403079The overwhelming majority of people never finish their games.Just check any achievement/trophy percentage ever and you'll see what I mean.

>>736397367i have a good friend who has recommended me stuff in the past that ended up becoming some of my favorite stuff, he gifted me three games in a series that he thought i'd like and i couldn't get through more than a few hours of the first one even after several attempts. i felt pretty bad, i liked the setting i just couldn't get into the gameplay, i gifted him $60 in steam credit for his birthday a few years later.
>>736399183Get the fuck over the cunt anon.You're better than this.You have the prime opportunity to have the nastiest glowup for your mutual friends to talk to her about.
>>736400639TITS or GTFO
>>736404142>Real women>In /v/ of all placesYou're dumb!
>>736397367I am in the process of doing this but only because I'm the type to save watching or playing something for the right time, it really makes it hit if you're in the perfect mood for it. I remember saving Ghost in the Shell for that, it boosted the experience.
>>736402521This is fucking me.A couple of them I use to play a shit ton of L4D with, just randomly got friended by these dudes back when L4D1 was new. Constant full versus matches with these dudes I legit only played L4D with that all seemed to be clan-mates or IRL friends. Eventually either cause of L4D2 releasing and being an underage poorfag or naturally just dropping the game I ended up never talking to any of those niggas ever again.Others have just been random adds from dota matches since I'm breddy gud and actually use my mic.
>>736397367Where did all these replies come from
>>736400639My queen
>>736404951the friend
>>736397694>it is more difficult than you think to develop the mental fortitude to try a new game outGenuinely what causes this? I have a bunch of games I was interested, I have nothing stopping me from playing them, but for some reason I can't bring myself to play them (not even 5 minutes) unless I muster some mental strength
>>736405573>have to learn new mechanics>have to learn new story>have to give some your undivided attention to get fully immersed>have to relearn the game once you inevitably take a hiatus from it>have to remember where you left off in the story and what the story was even about anymore. half of your playtime is spent trying to figure out all the stuff you did last time.
>>736397292>don't be a fag>only accept friend requests from people I know IRLwhy create problems for yourself over nothing?
>>736399650Different anon but I'm fuckin 31 and I have a similar issue. I also drop games halfway to 85% finished because I realize there's no more new mechanics or anything to learn and I feel like I've mastered the gameplay.>Stalker>FNV>SMT Nocturne>SMT V>BG3>DD:DAIt's even worse if the game's modded so if I reinstall I have to start completely fresh and also spend the next day and a half installing mods.It's a complicated type of feel.
>>736397367can you not refund le gift?
>>736405310That's weird. People that want friends are weird.
I miss having friends but meh, what are you gonna do
>>736406334It's just like everyone in the discord server fucking died in the last year. They still post VERY rarely but it's not like what it was even 3 years ago.I hate it. Time passing sucks and it needs to STOP.
>>736397292>Anon doesn't realize people have other friends and are entitled to there own privacy and other relationships. It was nothing against you dude, way to alienate yourself. Peak narcissism and main character syndrome.
>>736406525life is going to face fuck you, anon.
>go invisibleI'm the invisible manI'm the invisible manINCREDIBLE HOW YOU CANSEE RIGHT THROUGH ME
>>736397292maybe he just wanted to play something else. maybe his social battery was depleted, and/or maybe he wanted something where he didn't need to talk so he could wind down before bed. plenty of reasons that have nothing to do with you, quit being insecure.
>>736406525nigga all my IRC groups from 20 years ago are DEAD and your discord groups will be dead toothe cruel entropy of time consumes it allweep, repent, etc.
>>736406726Because youre old as shit
>>736406726NOOOOOOO WE WERE SUPPOSED TO BE FRENS FOREVER THO
wow. all of my steam friends have been pretty great people except for one "chick" back in like 2015 who eventually started to ask for free shit, probably a dude but I never cared what their gender was but they tried to ply it for things so I just blocked them and forgot about it til now
Talking to men isn’t much of a hobby, it’s really played up and sold to us as a distraction technique from the female supply scarcity. Almost every woman is fucking ugly as shit. God gets first dibs on the hot and young girls, far as I can tell he clones himself and takes the good sex. He’s clearly been creating animal lifeforms to accomplish tasks, and more or less also seems to do this to human lifeforms. Anyways yeah, that’s fucking gay dude and somebody is going to convince you to get topped. I even might, that’s actually like a fun hobby. Highly suggest convincing people to get topped, it actually does feel really good to feel a guys spasming penis releasing in your sphincter, especially if he’s black. Man this is so boring, he’s made so many guns for himself. The god, he makes guns and hoardes the money and women. It’s kinda fucked up.
>>736399183Imagine being grown adult, "confessing" to a girl like an anime, and expecting her to have any other reaction.You lot really are hopeless.
>Have a small friend group for decades>Now all but 1 have moved on to other things in life (family, other friend groups etc)>Last one is barely around nowI am nervous about making new friends. Why must change happen...
>>736406868be the one that reaches out.
>>736406821The god draws the anime dude. Not real mortals such as myself. He can put it anything he wants to any show. It’s mostly used for cuckolding. He’s designed a system where he gets first dibs on all the hot girls, and enforces this with the only thing that works, military might. He’s built his clones so many guns, and even calls himself the police and says everyone believes he’s a police officer. Youre naive if you think you aren’t being robbed.
>>736406753and you will be too, before you even realize itREPENT
>>736397367if i didn't ask for it, i have no obligation of playing it, you fucking retard>>736398847fuck you too nigger

>>736397712It's a good game
>>736397595So um
>>736397292>Never add anyone to my friend list>Never have to worry about anything>No friends ghosting me making me feel like I did something wrong>No friends never logging back on to remind me of the fleeting fragility of life>No having to play games I don't want to play but they do>No clingy cunts like OP where any time I want to play games it turns into having to perform like a monkey so they don't feel slightedI only need to spend about five hours with other people before I'm good for the month.
>>736397367I just decline gifted games these days, I'm not playing that shit so stop trying to give it to me.
>>736407285
>>736397367How do you know? Are you his fucking nanny?>>736398847This may shock you, but gifts aren't transactional, faggot. Once you give someone a gift, it's theirs to decide what to do with. Yes, even if that means throwing your gift in the garbage. It's theirs to enjoy or dispose of as they see fit.
>>736407732It's real schizo hours anonNot as fun as that one fairy gaemu anon tho.
>>736399471>it is le traumatic for people to not be up to socializing constantlyInvisible was made exactly for "traumatizing" personality types like yours, kek.
>>736398475I want to reconnect but I've become a massive recluse over the years and I'm 99% sure the person you knew me as is not the same as I am now
>>736403913lmao I see it
>>736397367>have danganronpa on my wishlist>friend buys me all three>play the first one a bit and don't like itThis was years ago. I'm pushing through it this year and going to try and play them all.
>>736397292This was an opportunity for both of you to grow up and mature. You both failed.
>>736406525lmao you can never go back, keep marching forward faggot. You'll meet new people on your journey. If not you better learn to be comfortable with the quiet.
>>736397292He's a retard, should've just said he wanted to play other games. And his friend should be okay with it.
>>736397367someone gifted me games on my wishlist once but I never really planned to buy them so I didn't play them
>>736397367This has happened to me with every gift I have given but they were all games I liked that were going for dirt cheap so whatever, I gave them out with the assumption they wouldn't be played. Good games, though, I've beaten them all myself.The situation in OP can happen but it's not personal and really, just don't be clingy. The real thing to be upset about is how everything is a circle these days and if you're not in it then tough luck. Always aim to be the top guy because if you aren't then you're just inferior.
>get gifted a game>accept but reluctantly because i don’t want to feel forced to play or guilt tripped about it>end up playing more than them>they don’t want to playgames for this feel
>>736401001>it's a tism friend is sperging out and chose me as his monthly therapist episode>never even has any interesting problems, it's always boring shit like muh girlfriend or muh drug dealer >still have to maintain friendship since he has no life and lives on niche discords getting exclusive access to cool game alphas or secret mods he shares with me

>>736413724Damn that's ghey. Me and my brother just have our discord NEET bro who we try to egg into getting a jerb every now and then. I worry for the nigga.
>>736406525>>736406782The most melancholy part about this is nothing even happened that caused it. There wasn't a big fight, the one guy holding us all together didn't die, nothing huge like that. We were just all too busy one day to post or play and one day turned into two into a week into forever. Someone might post what should be huge gaming news for all of us that'd get us chatting and gaming for a week, but instead got a single thumbs up reaction three days later. Or maybe we'd try setting up a hasty hour-long session of Deep Rock or L4D, but we never said much to each other during the game besides a few awkward sniffles or coughs, and left with a "see ya later, bro", half knowing we'd never talk to each other again and half never thinking it could happen. I think at some point in most people's lives, they instantly and simultaneously realize that the person their talking to has given all they can, and thus it's time to move on. Happens so often that I can only cope by hoping it's natural to some degree and not some industrial revolution chicanery. Hope some wise sage figures it out because I sure as hell can't.
>>736405573Decision paralysis. You have too many options, so you agonize over making the "right" choice, which leads to you putting it off and doing nothing.
These threads are always really funny. Have you considered that you are all a bunch of unlikable faggots?
>>736409878One is by far the best one so good luck lmao. I couldn't bring myself to complete the third game.

>>736413780>posts an image literally made by a redditor posted on redditPot calling the kettle back.
The exact moment someone guilts me about not responding in a timely manner is when that person goes on my shit list. Get fucked: you are exhausting to talk to.

>>736397367I'm okay with a friend doing this since my end is more niche, but when the reverse happens it sucks.
>>736399693Best kick em out now before they vac your account out of spite.
>>736397292just because i'm online and want to play something, doesn't mean i have to spend the entirety with you or someone else. What if i want to play a single-player game?Why are needy people so selfish?
>>736414016At least I don't come on /v/ to bitch and whine about it like a little faggot.
>discord sever of childhood friends>it's super dead, no one has spoken in it since we played helldivers 2 that one time when the game was new>find out through a chance irl encounter at a supermarket that the entire circle is extremely active to this day... just in another server that i wasn't ever invited to
>>736416586Damn, you have to be some extreme faggot for that to happen. Shit dude. You must be one of the most repulsive retards around.
