Fam all everyone talks about is mundane stuff. I don't pick up my phone because I know I will be stuck on the phone for 30-90 mins talking about stuff I don't really care about .No one ever calls you to see what you wanna talk about, they call you cause they have some stuff to tell you whether they are complaining about something or just some stuff they care about but you not so much.
:ehh:
Agree with this post. this can go either way. I know people that are too socially awkward to talk to and others that just aren't interesting to talk to.
I know this personally because i went through a dramatic shift in my late twenties. I went from hanging with the boys talking about life, women the usual shyt. now i'm at the point where i hang with a lot of business types discussing new ventures, brainstorming product ideas, all things finance & investing and recently geopolitics.

When i try to go back to the old friends, it's a pain in the ass talking to them because it's as if there still about the same petty stuff we were into in our late teens i.e. chasing women, getting money ( with no clear defined plan mind you) or blaming the world for there problems when everyone around them knows they are the sole cause of there problems and that they just shift the blame (no accountability).:snoop:



So i can kind of understand that people would prefer to ghost rather than interact as it's an easier solution. remember when given, humans almost always choose the path of least resistance.:yeshrug:

This. I can’t stand nikkas who act like bytches and get upset if you don’t answer their call when they feel like you should (no shots at you OP). I’m a grown ass man who has responsibilities and pays his own bills. I don’t owe anyone shyt.

Fair enough but it in my case I may call once in awhile, and the folks I'm reffering to ain't busy like that these folks are glued to the damn phone everyday, I also got responsibilities but I'll still make time even if its brief 3 minutes.

Something that has become evident to me since the 2010's but during 2019 I've been interacting with a ton of people due to a specific career that I'm getting in that requires to networking and socialising with people. The flakyness is off the chains.

1. Why are motherfukkers scared to answer the damn phone when you call? These weirdos ain't even busy or occupied sometimes these buggers will answer the phone just to say that they'll call back but instead you get a text many hours later, almost always you'll get a motherfukker that won't even call back or even text.

2. Motherfukkers these days aren't ashamed of breaking promises after making one with you, though they expect you to do your part for them. I grew up to keep my word when I agreed to do something with or for someone, however if I knew that I couldn't do something for someone I'd say "No" as It's fukking disrespectful to say "Yes" then not doing the thing you promised.

It's either folks got extreme tunnel vision with their phone or people have become socially awkward most likely because of these smart gadgets being the root and lastly folks lost integrity.

Then they see you in public and act like they didn't do shyt wrong to you :francis:

Exactly, I reconnected with a childhood friend a while back, grew up with this kid, our parents knew each other, even after all the years my mum would ask about him if we still in contact.

I had to ghost him though because he would ring me every other day and be on the phone for an hour minimum moaning about something. Whether it was past and present relationships, regrets he had and exes he was missing or a current ting doing him dirty. He would talk about things he was insecure about constantly and no matter how much advice I gave him we ended up back talking about the same things. It became so draining to have such negative conversation over and over again. Something I even mentioned but it still didn't stop.

Add that to the fact that it never mattered what I wanted to talk about or had to say, after the typical 'hi, how you been' there was never an interest in what was on my mind. I'd try and steer the convo in other directions and he would either just completely ignore what I said or entertain it for a minute before going back to his stuff. Reason why everyone loves a good listener, people just wanna get their stuff off and it's forget everyone else. He bumped into my cousin recently and went off on my cousin about me being a snake cause I don't stay in touch despite being old friends, but he can't recognise his own faults.

There's so much stuff I have to say, stuff that haunts me. Waaaaay more stuff than the vast majority of the people I ever meet and the vast majority of people reading this I can promise you that, but I don't tell people because I can recognise when someone doesn't really care too much or want to hear it, why force it upon them? I made a thread on here where I was speaking about things I have gone through in chronological order, but I couldn't do it the way people wanted me to and people complained so I stopped, cause what I was doing is not what people wanted. I recognise when people don't want or care to hear what I'm saying, I don't get mad, I just don't burden them with it, why can't others do the same. So many of my friends and family know nothing of the stuff I spoke about in that thread and the ones that do know very little

Bruh its crazy, society is literally getting more pussified, weird and socially inept. Like someone said the OGs and older folk on average are far more socially intelligent than these young cats.

I got a half bro who is 20 and this nikka has the social skills of a 13 year old, like when you talk to him its like talking to a stuck up thot who aint contributing shyt to the convo.:gucci:

Then the increased amount of weirdos both online and in real life had to have triple since 2010. Maybe because im just more aware than I was a decade ago but on god folks be doing shyt that has me scratching my head like why.:dwillhuh:

Social media, phones/computers really making people braindead :francis:

1. I’m burnt out from talking on the phones for decades. I’m good for five-ten minuted talking. Truth be told I don’t even like texting that much. I’d much rather chop it up in person and hang out.
2. I can’t relate. My word is bond.
