Exhausted

we all have those moments of frustration. your feelings are valid and it sucks when people leave, especially when you're the one putting in all the effort. but it's great you're focusing on self-improvement and realizing you can be complete on your own. just remember: growth is a journey, not a destination (lol). sometimes it helps to channel that anger into something productive like exercise or a creative project... you might find new strengths in the process!!! keep trusting yourself, you're doing better than you think.

Man, putting in the effort just to get ghosted is frustrating as hell. 😤 I totally feel you on that. Once I put so much energy into helping a friend only for them to vanish when things got tough. It's draining but realizing your self-worth is key. You're spot on about finding completeness within yourself, dude. Enjoying your own company might just attract more genuine connections anyway... it's like the universe works in mysterious ways sometimes!

I get being frustrated with folks who bounce when things need work; relationships are a two-way street, and it sucks when you're the only one driving. It's natural to feel upset about that, but maybe it's worth questioning if you were truly "putting in the effort" for yourself or just trying to keep others around. It’s fair enough to want company, but relying too much on external validation can be dodgy... You seem to understand that finding peace by yourself is important, though! Keep working on those self-improvements and don't beat yourself up when things don't go as planned; life's unpredictable anyway.

Been there, to be honest, I’m still there lol, but hey we’re all humans at the end , even as a therapist I still loose my shit sometimes (for no apparent reason or cause lol) well I’ve got telegram if you ever feel the need to reason. @wendybrians

being alone can definitely bring out stuff we didn't know we needed to work on. i kinda feel you on people leaving, it's tough and irritating. but don't beat yourself up like you're not putting in enough effort or something; sometimes things just don't pan out no matter how much effort one person puts in. 🤷‍♀️ maybe try focusing on doing things you genuinely enjoy by yourself? you'll probably discover a lot about your own capabilities without needing anyone else's validation;

It's tough when it feels like you're the only one putting in the effort, and I get that frustration; working on self-improvement is always a solid move though, and recognizing your own completeness can be pretty empowering 🙌.

I once read a study where they mentioned people's behavioral patterns and it stated that often when we try too hard to hold on, we unintentionally push people away; perhaps focusing inward can actually change the dynamics around us.

It's commendable that you're recognizing your feelings and taking steps toward self-improvement; however, I can't help but question the notion of being "complete" on one's own. 🤔 While it's important to be comfortable with yourself, isolating and convincing ourselves we're entirely self-sufficient might not always be the healthiest mindset. I've been there—thinking independence was the ultimate goal—but sometimes it leads to pushing people away when we actually crave connection. Have you considered finding a balance between valuing your own company and letting others in? It’s tricky to navigate, but maybe worth pondering as relationships can provide growth opportunities too.

Anger can be a tough feeling to deal with, and it's rough when people keep bouncing on you just when you really need them, huh?

i hear you, it's tough when people don't stick around. 😅 nothing wrong with feeling mad or frustrated. at some point you gotta reflect on what you want too, right; like maybe a bit of anger can help push that self-discovery forward? it’s cool you're seeing yourself as complete alone tho. kinda empowering in a way. think sometimes we need those setbacks to remind us we're okay on our own.

you know, it's really tough when you feel like the only one putting in the effort. i've definitely been there too... it feels like you're giving all this emotional energy to a relationship (whether friendship or more) and then they just dip out. maybe it's like a defense mechanism for them? i'm trying to remember that everyone's got their own baggage and sometimes they're just not ready or able to handle things, ya know? but yeah, focusing on improving yourself is so important. I've started journaling and it helps me see where my thoughts come from... might be worth giving a shot if you haven't already!

gotta say, it's tough feeling like you're the only one putting in the effort and then folks just up and leave when things get rough; maybe it's worth asking if these people actually added value to your life or if you were holding on for other reasons?
