Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

just two stories to hopefully help you. tldr is time and self-improvement/self-care.
first rough break up. they weren't in my life but always in my mind. that sort of thing. even with new relationships.
6 years went by. i grew a lot. marx, chomsky, lenin, bakunin, pannekoek, etc.
randomly at a house party they were at. a group of us were sitting talking everything going on in the world at the time, local election, etc. they kept interrupting the conversation with their friend to talk about shallow boring nonsense.
needless to say i realized they were... not special for me anymore and frankly just fucking lame.
second hard break up i kept them in my life as a friend. big mistake, whatever. honestly they were just using me for company until soemthjing else better came along. whatever. i was at a music festival with them and the festival was fucking wild and fun but they were so pissy the entire time. i was like, "wow this person actually sucks holy shit."
