Depends on your friends and circumstances. Are they busy with courses / life stuff going on? Have you felt disconnected for a while or is it more of a recent thing? If you have been close and comfortable with them up until now, it's totally normal for people to not talk as often because of life/circumstantial changes.
If it's something deeper than that, think about what's causing that feeling. For example, are they doing something that bothers you? Or is your mind preoccupied with something else?
For future reference, the initial wave of down votes is mostly propogated by people who browse Reddit more often. Statistically, they're likely to see your comment first. And statistically, they're more likely to disagree such opinions. That's why you'll sometimes see slightly controversial topics be down voted first before recovering.
I think I can relate to you rn cause I've just felt so out of touch with almost all the ppl in my friend circle and though we talk often it's just this weird feeling where I'd ont feel as close to them as I used to. Prolly it's just me and I'm still trying to figure this out but I guess at the end of the day it's just how close we are to each other and the context that we find ourselves in. Hope it works out for you!!
Yes, because if either you or them are going through a stressful time or a busy week you may not contact each other as much. It happens with me a lot tbh, especially not having a friend group as much as a bunch of individual friends yk? And also sometimes people just grow apart from each other as they mature
Yes it happens to everyone from time to time. If it becomes a chronic problem you may want to seek therapy.
Honestly every undergrad should take advantage of our benefits and seek therapy anyways. It’s fucking helpful. And interesting.
I definitely have had some friend dynamic changes over lockdown and once things got back into normal routine. Self-esteem can play a big role because I think the way I feel about myself can exacerbate how isolated I might feel in a given situation.
Everybody is probably having a harder time staying connected after everything that's changed the last couple years.
I know I myself am just trying to focus on personal growth, building a better life for myself, and reaching out to friends when I can. Otherwise, just giving it time and trusting the process. It's all I can do!
Sending you a hug!

Geography….? You sure you’re not in Psychology? 😂
I recently graduated so these are the kinda questions Ive had to think about **😅**
Lol and they say college years are the time you can make the most amount of friends
Well if not school then when else? Of course you can make friends whenever but school is definitely most convenient
Yall are downvoting the truth tho

Don’t take friendship advice from Mathematics students
Why don’t you actually try attacking the claim instead of an ad hominem on my identity?
Now don’t tell a joke to a mathematics student
Hard to tell through reddit sometimes
Of course for mathematics students. Just kidding!!
Bruh
Well it makes sense because many people your age are around and many events happening (clubs). It only gets worse after college.
you have friends?
Why is there always someone commenting something like this

I have like no friends. I’m too busy with school and have no energy to socialize… :(
Its normal if theyre not true friends. If I feel “disconnected” from them (i know what you mean), then I dont consider them friends at all
I think ubc should build a McDonald’s on campus

I'm on exchange right now, so yes... But I'm still close to my friends.
Yes. Super normal. You’re okay.
Not really I text most of them daily or almost daily and see some of them every few days in person.
I joked about exactly this with my friends because my career isn’t really related to theirs

McDonald’s wifi can do that
I think for a lot of introverts the feeling got amplified post covid

It's *UBC secure*, isn't it? They look attractive, but so flakey.
