Whatsapp Both of us wrong? Dry texting

Post image

Idk even know how to explain without a essay, but she is my friend from highschool until now, she's mostly someone who's stressed, sometimes its overbearing ngl, I voiced it and we were still cool, she stopped voicing about 85% of it and irl we be talking about lots of stuff. Lately she has been dry texting, so the vibes is a bit off, so I guess I returned the favour( I guess im overthinking and being soft).

Idk you get the energy you give. And obviously it goes both ways. If you wanna salvage the friendship you could put in some effort but if you don’t care then don’t. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I dunno. I think if your friend almost exclusively thinks negatively it might help to model more positive kinds of conversation. She might need a little help finding shit to talk about because her brain's exclusively run on negativity for so long. That helped/helps me a lot, as a negative person. Just need someone to help set the vibe.

Or... it's possible she's shutting you out. Either to punish you or because she's hurt. Might be worth just asking her. Like a lil check in.

either your friend has no issues with it, and gets from you doing the same that its fine with you too. if i were you i'd make longer replies and talk about the elephant in the room (why is she doing it) if he keeps going

Honestly this seems dry at face value but it's not unsalvageable - and between two close friends, probably not even a big deal. After they answered yes, if you followed up with "want to chill?" or "game tonight?" or whatever activity you both like, I would just assume its two bffs texting.

If this was a dating app convo? Yeah f that.

(This is how my texts went with my closest friends throughout my mid-20s. )

A "Yo"

B "sup"

A "Reach tonight?" 

B "down, will leave soon"

A "kk"
