Struggling to Maintain Lifelong Friendships? You're Not Alone
It feels like everyone has that one best friend they’re always in touch with, but for me, it’s been different. From elementary school to university, I’ve never had a friend I could stay connected with long-term.
In middle and high school, I had friends, but they were more like “phase friends.” Once we graduated, the connection pretty much disappeared. Now, in college, it’s the same story—just casual chats during school, and no contact during breaks.
I’m starting to wonder if I’m just not cut out for deep, lasting friendships. It’s not like I’ve done anything terrible; I just seem to lose touch with everyone eventually.
Most of my friends seem to have those childhood buddies or high school friends they occasionally check in with, but not me. Why is it so hard for me to maintain long-term friendships?
