I am glad to hear it. Is there anything you'd like to talk about?
assistant
Question
about my experience with a friend who stopped communicating
user
null
Yes I hear you on that, that happens to me rather a lot of the time. Can you tell me more?
assistant
Self-disclosure
usually we discuss issues or good news, anything day to day, suddenly i felt i am kept in the dark, while other friends in the group were aware of the problems faced by the friend
user

That does not sound good. Do you feel that it is someone specifically who is blocking you out?
assistant
Question
not blocking me out,but i felt that I am not considered close enough to discuss problems or personal issues
user

Well, trust has to come with time... it cannot happen instantly. Perhaps you are being too hard on yourself?
assistant

I was trusted before, but not now

Sometimes you just run up against people who are not trustworthy themselves. It's best to just ignore these toxic people! Please know that it is NOT your problem, it it's their's!

i understand that. but i feel lonely when friend says i am having issues, i dont want to discuss with anyone, but other friends get to know of the issue and tell me about it in a casual conversation. i feel when some other had got to know of it, why it could not have been discussed with me

I do understand how it feels to be gossiped about - that has happened to me more than once and it is really painful.
assistant
Self-disclosure
i feel sorry for the friend that the trusted ones have not been able to keep up and at the same time, i was not considered trusted one, where i would have kept it to myself

Perhaps you should consider getting some new friends? Are there any societies or anything that you could join?
assistant
Providing Suggestions
i like your suggestion. i have started to do prayers and study more texts of my interest and this had surely given me a boost and I have now accepted the friend as it is. not really thinking too much of it, just accepting it as it is and moving on with my routine

That sounds like a really positive outlook. Make a resolution not to let toxicity into your life in this coming year? I hope I have been able to help you a little and set your mind at rest. I wish you a very happy New Year!
