I’ve always wondered why some people are seen as disposable to others. Like, how can someone wake up one day and just simply decide to never talk to someone again like they meant nothing to then? Has anyone have this experience? I know people come and go in everyone’s lives but it has always baffled me when someone drops someone at the drop of a hat, whether they entered a new relationship or something else. They may not even tell you if you did something wrong and if you see them with someone else, they seem perfectly happy and don’t seem to give a crap that they dropped you.

When this happens, it makes you question the whole friendship or even relationship you had with that person. Have you ever questioned a friendship or relationship with someone due to this happening? Like I mentioned, I know people come and go but I feel like even if a good friendship ends, they will not just suddenly disappear and pretend you never meant anything. They will still respect you and it may be more of a casual fade out. I feel like someone who just suddenly decides to drop you was never a real friend in the first place. What do you guys think? Just wondered.

Yes,
What you've just described has happened over & over & over again throughout my life.
Dating all the way back to when I was 12 or 13.
It's one of the reasons I really don't trust anyone.
I used to be happy & it didn't take much for me to trust you.
I miss that person ( meaning me).
All I can say is some people are like that. I sure would like to meet the other half who aren't heartless *****'s.
This will be a question I will bring up with the new therapist I'll be seeing next month.

Yeah I have trouble trusting people now too to be honest. I even start questioning if friendships are even real in the first place or if everyone just pretends to be friends. I know that sounds horrible but that is something I’ve started to wwonder. Now I can understand more why some people develop depression and anhedonia. I am curious as to what your therapist answer will be and hope your therapist gives a good reason.

I think that people like that are just stuck on themselves or may be sociopathic and feel no remorse for those that they hurt.
