Why do people online say they want genuine friendships/connections but then ghost/block so quickly?

I understand blocking or leaving when someone is rude, creepy, or disrespectful etc. But I’m talking about completely normal conversations. Like we’ll just be talking about fav food, music and stuff and then suddenly they disappear or even block without explanation.

The ones that don't block with practically ignore until I initiate a conversation every single time

I’m genuinely curious why this has become so common. Maybe it's only happening to me??

I don't want to reveal too much but I'm just so tired at this point. Not exactly physically but mentally. I'm juggling so many things. I'm getting all my documents ready for college(already problems started occurring), paying in advance (need to contact with bank and get many things ready), doing work, studying(which I'm barely doing due to my stress and inability to focus. I'm scared that I won't be able to get into college. Being an adult is hard.

I just want to feel like everything is fine. I just want to tell someone all my deep emotions and cry my eyes out. I wish I had someone close to me right now to hold me while I'm breaking down. I'm so pathetic. I'm stressed. I'm mentally exhausted. All I feel like doing is crying and being on my phone doom scrolling and waiting for someone to message me.i just want to be done with everything. I'm a dissapointment to my parents.

I don't think anything is wrong with me cause I am able to smile through my day and act as in I'm fine. That means I'm actually fine right? I feel like such an attention seeker. People are going through so much worse than me yet I'm complaining
