in school, im friends with the ones that i can relate with most, which means more possible interactions. we would also interact online. in the internet, i find quite a lot of people that i can chat with, could say a lot of friends made along the journey. but unfortunately for me, the friendship doesn't last long, not quite, as most of the time they are just playmates. i wouldn't say i don't have any friends on the net, we just rarely chat. on the other hand, i chat with my irl school friends at the very least once every 2 weeks, normally a few times a week. oh yea i don't make friends, we just happen to talk/chat, and at some point found our similarities and become friends. but sometimes you just gotta strike a convo to get started btw when you say 'they leave for circumstances outside my control', most of the time, like me, they probably just got hooked to a new game, addicted to consooming content and just straight up forget about what fun they had a little before. also be careful with the word control as you dont wanna use that directly on anyone, seriously, no one likes micromanagers ight thanks
