I miss you
The story
I know it might be stupid, but I personally care a lot and think they matter a lot in my life if they come into my life, and if they get into my circle.
First of all... Its about online friendship haha... I know they are very easy to loose, but I dont know, this time, its quite hard to get over it.
I met him in a game called whiteout survival which is really toxic in my opinion xD
We were, and we are still in the same alliance. We became friends like that.
We had that very close friendgroup happening there, and we played a lot of games outside of whiteout survival.
League of legends, goose goose duck, sometimes just fun vc night, etc.
They were all in a same country, I live in the other side of the world. So we got some timezone issues.
But him, he works at night, so when hes off work, then its also evening for me.
So we used to play a lot of games together. almost every night, after work, till 6am when we were in a flow xD
mayhem aram night, palworld, terraria, portal,... we went through a lot of games.
For some months.
It was funny days. haha maybe my sleep schedule was not happy with it, but it was indeed some great time.
Someday he came in, and told me that his coworker quit. So he had some hard days doing his work too.
And we played more and more less together, cause he was tired.
it has almost been a month now. since we played something together.
I dont know if he has some time now, or its him just being very busy.
And of course, like I always do... I started overthinking.
thinking things like:
Did I annoy him too much?
explanation: He mocks me a lot so I take it as a joke and mock and annoy him too..lol And I sing while vc sometimes... rip.
so yeah...
usually it was him asking after his work if im ready or down for some games.. and Id wait for that msg.
because I have no idea if hes back home or like that because he has his discord status as offline.. rip
and mine online so yea
and idek, idek if he still wants to play game and stuff like that
im just confused, missing those gaming nights, all those mockerys etc...
Our state in whiteout survival has been shaking, which made us think about quitting. I asked him one day about his opinion in this situatuion, and he said he would quit. I told him I would too. (at that time) But we are still there, active, working together, and I dont really want to, until my friends quit. (Then I really dont have any reasons to play it anymore...) but yeah. As he is busy, he is still playing but comes in game like once a day or so.
We wont even have common stuff anymore which held us together, Im afraid if im loosing this friendship.
I got his discord and chat, and I know he would answer me, but we dont really dm unless its about games. yeah.
Im confused, missing him and those games, and I just dont know.. I dont know!! lmao

man, i get ho frustrating it is when someone goes from being in your daily life to pretty much radio silence; those late-night gaming sessions can create such strong bonds, and when they start fading away, it leaves you feeling all sorts of confused and a bit lonely.
have you tried talking to him about it directly?
man, that sounds hella rough!!! time zone differences can be killer on friendships; especially when you really click with someone and then life just throws a bunch of obstacles in your way. i've been there too, waiting for that ping or message that's not coming makes it hard to not spin your brain into overdrive?! seriously, it's frustrating when you only communicate through games... might help to shoot a quick dm; maybe he's not realizing how much it's affecting you. either way, remember you're awesome and these things suck... hoping it smooths out for ya!
I understand how close online friendships can get. However, it's possible he just needs some space or time for himself right now. Sometimes people get busy and their priorities change unintentionally, which isn't necessarily a reflection on the friendship you both share.
It's totally understandable to feel that way about online friendships. They can be such a big part of your life even if it's "just" gaming, especially when you have those consistent late-night sessions together. It's like you've built this unique bond over shared experiences in virtual worlds and games. I used to have a similar friendship from a game called Rust, and when we stopped playing together as much, it left a hole for sure.
Could be just normal life stuff pulling him away or maybe some other interests getting his attention. It happens! Maybe try reaching out directly to check in? Just a casual "hey how's it going" without the game context could make things clearer without the wait for post-work gaming invites. I've found keeping an open line of communication helps, even if it's not always smooth sailing or feels awkward at first!!! 😊
You seem really worried about this change, yet maybe he's genuinely caught up with work and life. It's worth considering that not every decrease in communication means something is wrong.
It's tough, isn't it? Friendships can feel so fragile when they're built online. Maybe just give it a bit more time and see if things naturally fall back into place. You two seemed to have a great connection, and sometimes life just gets in the way temporarily. Perhaps you could send him a message about how you’re feeling, keeping it light and casual. It might clear up some confusion!
you sure he's busy?
yeah lol he was not playing any league games
hmm, maybe just give him some space for now and see if he reaches out. sometimes people just need a break or get caught up with life stuff. but if you want, maybe drop him a casual message to check in?
it's interesting how sometimes online friendships can feel just as real and meaningful as those offline, even if they're based around gaming. i guess it's easy to fall into overthinking when you don't hear from someone as often, especially when your communication was built on routine. but have you considered maybe sending him a message to check in and see how he’s doing? maybe it could help clear things up a bit instead of waiting for that game invite. 😅
It's understandable feeling disconnected when one friend changes a routine that's been consistent for so long. But maybe he doesn't realize it's causing distress for you on a personal level, especially if logs in at different times due to his schedule shifting.
It seems like he might be having a tough time managing things since his coworker quit. I suspect there could be more going on than just being tired, but who knows? Maybe try reaching out again casually and see if he responds differently.
feels like you're just stuck in the dark waiting for him to reach out.
perhaps you're placing too much weight on this friendship. online friends can come and go more often than those IRL. he might just be overloaded with work or other commitments, but that doesn't mean your friendship is collapsing. keep in mind people have their ups and downs; it's normal for interest to fade or shift over time in the gaming world. if it still concerns you, maybe drop a casual message outside of gaming context without expecting anything in return immediately before jumping to conclusions about what might be wrong here...
maybe just chillax
could it be he's really just super busy right now?
sounds like a tricky spot to be in; i'm not sure about this, but maybe he could just be really overwhelmed right now with work and life in general.
this all sounds a bit much. maybe you're overthinking it? i mean it happens to everyone but worrying too much sometimes causes more stress than needed imo.
Perhaps there's nothing wrong at all.
...i dunno... what if there is something he's dealing with?
You know, it sounds like you're letting your imagination run wild with this whole thing. If he hasn't outright said he's annoyed or doesn't want to game anymore, why assume the worst? Sometimes people just get caught up in their own lives and work and stuff. It's not always about you. 🤔 Maybe try shooting him a quick message. Keep it simple and see if he's got time for a chat or a game soon without making it too deep or awkward; no need to overcomplicate things, right?
y cant u jus ask him urself instd of goin thru all this mess
sounds like an overreaction tho
