Do I suck as a friend????

Hello, I’m starting to believe that maybe I’m the issue when it comes to friends. I think I’m just very oblivious, but most of the time my friendships just die out, and I can't help but think it’s my own fault they do. I really don’t put forth a lot of good friendship qualities; I’m kinda just a person. If you let me be your friend, I’ll just stick around you until you show me you don’t care about me anymore. Usually, friendships only last around a year to maybe 2 years for me before the other person gets bored and just ditches me. The thing I don’t really get is I’ll just let it happen, won't even bat an eye; it’s just a "oh, we’re not talking to each other anymore, alright" which sure could be a good quality to have, but like, sometimes it’s just like what did I do wrong? I thought we were cool? It seems like maybe I was meant to be alone, which kinda sucks to think about since I can't act like I don’t get lonely; everyone gets lonely but I don’t know this is kinda random but I wanted to talk about it since me and an online friend just randomly stopped talking to each other and it made me wonder about this again.

i’d say your passiveness is a double edged sword here. you don’t force friendships that are fading, but you not batting an eye would most likely seem like you never cared about the friendship at all. i don’t think you suck as a friend, but that ‘hanging around waiting for them to leave’ is something people are probably just mirroring. maybe next time when people start to drift away, ask them directly about it and don’t be a bystander to your own friendship fallout. everyone gets lonely, so don’t sweat it. the fact you’re questioning it proves you give a crap anyway lol

I believe people who question themselves about being the problem are hardly ever the problem
