I‘m semi avoiding IG bc there’s this person who dmed me wanting to be friends, and I was down to get to know them, but then they just started being indirectly guilt trippy? And idk what to do :,D
Like they were like “yeah people are always so busy 🙄” or like “people always take advantage of my kindness” or like “I hate liars, liars are the worst type of people” (the last one said after I took a day to get back to them after I said I’d message them when I could :/ )
Oh and I had made a joke and said sometimes dming people is hard bc the convo gets dry immediately, and they were like “or they leave you on read, like am I boring or something lol” like I-
But like idk I don’t wanna stop messaging them after I said I would try my best to not take advantage of their kindness, and I feel bad because they obviously have insecurities and issues regarding internet friends, but at the same time they seem to be “projecting”, for lack of
better words. Like they had said they sometimes overreact and are working on it, but these comments just make me uncomfortable :,)) but idk what to do because I don’t know how to go about telling them to stop, and I don’t want to tell them I don’t want to be friends because I
don’t want them to have another reason to not trust people. Idk I feel like they don’t understand that while I’m being nice and friendly, we are not friends. They’re making these comments to me about other people or past people as if to make sure I won’t do the same to them
Like I agree sometimes people aren’t the best friend wise sometimes, but they really seem to have issues with this, and they need time to sort through them. Idk if that’s inventive but talking to them when they make those comments makes me just feel so stuck
I sort of want to tell them to stop, but like Idk how I’d go about that, but I also just don’t really want to be friends with them at this point jgnfdndj but how the fuck do you tell someone that without them feeling like shit? I don’t want to just block either, I feel so unsure
IMGNSKS I HATE IT HERE I don’t want to be their friend bc they seem a bit toxic, even if unintentional, and if they hate me they hate me, but like I said, they seem to have issues with this so if I do what they’re so scared of happening, they’re going to take it as an attack on-
themself. Idk I guess it is? But like I’m not trying to be mean, they just don’t seem like a person I’d want to be friends with if they’re going to make comments like this. Like I barely met them and they’re already projecting. I feel bad but like I don’t owe them anything??
I told them I’d be happy to get to know them, and that I appreciated them reaching out to me, but we are not friends, so it just makes me uncomfortable that they expect so much from me?? Idk fhdjdk
Idk if anyone will read all this, but thank you if you do :,] I guess this is a vent? LMAO idk I just feel a bit stuck but I’m sure I’ll figure something out
