Discussion Do you also burn your emotional bridges?

I didn't even talk to my best friend anymore, which well, it makes me a little sad, if I could relate to the recovery I could talk to him again, but what's the point of showing up? I'm not going to be comfortable and also if I finish CTB I want it to have as few memories of me as possible. That's how it is with most people, why betray their trust?

Their lives are better off with me a distant or long-forgotten memory.

I just phase out of people's lives and sooner or later the bridge disappears. I don't even need to burn it. I'm just a speck in their lives so it doesn't matter at the end of the day.

Honestly, I'm easily forgotten so don't have to do the burning. With my online friends, I just slowly disappear until they forget about me. I used to have a bunch of online friends who I talked to every day, sometimes for hours a day. But now I only talk to one, and that's maybe once every couple of weeks. It does make me sad, and I kinda miss the old days but I can't go back to that. I'm not the same person they met 5 years ago.

And for my real life friends? I don't know what it is, but they leave me after a while anyways. I don't know why. I'm autistic, it's probably something I say or how I act or maybe something I don't say or do. No one will tell me what it is, so how am I supposed to change? I give up trying to make friends in real life, it's easier for me in the end.

Last time I attempted to ctb, I tried to cut off my family and even my dog. I hated myself for it because I could see that it hurt them, but I thought I would be dead soon, so it didn't matter anymore.
