Friend Has Lost Interest in Him

Ask Papabear - Sat 4 Jul 2015 - 14:27
Hello, I have a situation going about that I'm just not sure what to do. 

I have a friend (21) that I've met online on furaffinity, and while we haven't really met each other in person, we've really hit it on online, and almost talk to each other on Skype. 

Until now, I've always been there for my friend, especially even when he was going through hard times. But now, he rarely talks to me, and initiating conversation goes nowhere, where we only say a few sentences to each other... and that's it.

When I asked him if anything was going on, he mentioned how he can't really speak to me all the time, and how busy he is during this summer. That's fine, he's an adult and has his job to attend to, seems like no issue, right? 

But, on the popular digital gaming platform, Steam, I always see him either chatting it up with friends and even playing games with them. As for me, nothing.

When I asked again, I was told the same thing, and how worrisome I am. After this, it's been the same, him playing and speaking with his friends while in conversations with me, we can barely can keep up a conversation. 

At this point, I'm just about ready to just yell at him, but, what if he's right? Am I thinking about this too hard, or am I justified about being worried?

Dear Worrisome,

In such situations, Papabear finds that it is wise to listen to one’s instincts. I don’t think you’re being paranoid or overthinking the evidence here, which indicates pretty strongly that, for some reason, this person has become bored with you or otherwise lost interest.

In my experience it usually isn’t worth your time and energy to obsess about such things, to pursue them relentlessly, and to be otherwise troubled by them. Sometimes friendships work out, sometimes they don’t. Sometimes you find a friend for life, other times two one-time friends drift apart.

That’s life.

I see people do what you’re doing all the time, fretting about “What did I do wrong?” Well, probably nothing. Usually, the problem is the other person, not you. There’s nothing wrong with you, the other guy just isn’t A-list-quality friend material. You tried to reconnect, and you’ve been met with indifference.

He’s moved on, and so should you.

Blessed Be,

Papabear

So today at work i was minding my own business when suddenly I hear load laughing and yelling and I look behind myself and BOOM! 12 fursuited people flowed into to the shop i work at. They all wore crocodile or monkey suits and i thinks they were all trying to cosplay an old russian cartoon character s(http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2Z_KeDDlT7U/UtbPfUy_YJI/AAAAAAAAXY0/d-GuNKaJRB0/s1600/1289986425_00-06-44.jpg).

A question about 'sonas

Furry Reddit - Sat 4 Jul 2015 - 10:27

If I based mine completly off of myself (pretty much me as a Lucario) would I refer to it as myself or as something else? I feel like I should refer to it as myself but at the same time I see that most people don't...

Example: "He doesn't fight very much" or "I don't fight very much."

A wild FURRY appeared!

Furry Reddit - Sat 4 Jul 2015 - 08:45

Ayo! I'm Bottlecapn, now officially a furry! I've been lurking around this sub for about, oh I dunno.... 9-10 months?long before I made an account anyway I decided to join you guys because I decided why the heck not? I needed to meet more furs like me and get involved in the fandom. Plus, it's exciting to finally have found a place where I can be me instead of playing out my usual reserved persona!

Lemme tell you a bit about myself beforehand: I'm a guy, gamer (Hearthstone, League of Legends, Smash Bros.) amateur artist, chiptune fanboi, straight A's highschool student, and I have a tendency to blather on a lot to the point where what I'm discussing with myself is completely irrelevant to the topic at hand. I'm so glad I'm finally joining you guys and can't wait to meet you all! Cap'n out!
