I (23M) have had all my relationships slowly fade away.
I broke up my friendship group because one guy was using women and playing them around. (One of those women was also a so called sister of one of the guys in the group). I stuck to my ethics of it being wrong and me and my bestfriend broke up from it.
My relationship of 2.5 years ended in 2024 due to her moving abroad and others things (anxious avoidant loop)
I broke up with people who i felt were hurting, using or not the person I would want to be with (in terms of being a good person or not).
I formed a friendship in my current city (mumbai) which i am very happy about.
But i also just lost 2 more friendship because they were conflict avoidant and not doing right by me. I know for a fact my decisions are right but I feel so tired of this.
I feel lonely, I want to have friends/friend groups. The relationship ending took a big toll on my self esteem which i worked back. Whenever I reach out to people, I feel am reaching out to a wall. Just no connections.
My hobbies are reading books (i host a book club), working out (7 months in after a 1.5 year hiatus), jogging, watching creative/essay videos on YouTube, cooking.
I know for a fact that I am an amazing friend but I just feel so broken with the things in my life. I have had so many personal achievements in 2025 but socially things are so damn bad. #relationships source
