A “remote viewer” on YouTube was what finally convinced him

FML LMAO

Struggled to stay close knit with friend groups after highschool and college.

Always had a good amount of friends but always have been on the edges of the “friend group”

If I ever am invited out it’s usually last minute and I always hear about how someone else couldn’t make it. There’s always talks about previous get together that I never hear about, and group chats I am not a part of. So I just kinda assume I’m who they go to as a fallback lol.

It makes me hesitant to ever try to make plans myself or invite them out, because they usually already have plans that I am not privy to. I’m also getting married soon and it’s tough trying to pick groomsmen and a best man when I have not even been in most of their weddings.

They are all good people and I don’t think it’s anything personal. I always have a great time with them, but it does hurt a little bit always feeling a bit on the outside.

I get it at the same time, I left for college when they didn’t, so it just makes sense the dynamic would change, but I never have seemed to be able to get fully re-integrated.

29m who struggled to stay close knit with my friend groups after high school and college. I’m on the edges of a few different friend groups and it always puts me in kind of an awkward spot.

I’m hesitant to ever try to set stuff up anything myself or invite anyone, because they all have separate group chats and are hanging out regularly without me, so half the time they are already together or have plans which then puts them in an awkward spot.

If they ever do invite me, it’s usually last minute for something they all have been talking about for a while together, and I always hear about someone not being able to make it, so I just kinda assume I’m the fallback lol.

I’m getting married soon and it’s weird trying to pick groomsmen and a best man when I’m not even in most of their weddings.

They are all good people and I don’t think it’s anything personal, they just stayed in our hometown while I left for college, so I missed a big gap there and kinda have been on the outside of the group since.

My closest friends I made in college have pretty much all moved away, and those who stayed I didn’t do a good job keeping up with, and they have since built out different friend groups that I am not a part of.

I get it but it still does hurt a bit and seems to be something I’ve always struggled with, it’s not something I hold against them as it’s often due to a lack of outreach by me.
