I think people have just become more isolated or busy since COVID the world just lost how to connect and social media is making us not to want to pick up the phone regularly to speak or even send a regular text or meet up. I think this is happening to many people

I have this with a friend. I've been trying to see her for over a year. She rarely reaches out to me, and from what she does say in messages, she is struggling, which I can empathise with but I feel totally shut out by her. I'm at the point of giving up but I really miss her. It's so tough knowing what to do

You’re absolutely not alone. I’ve lost many friends and it’s really shattered me x
