So when I was in High School, the 9th grade class went on a field trip to go camping. Of course, I never went camping before so I didn't really pack much of anything at all. (First mistake

). Luckily, I was close friends and neighbors with this cutie jock type guy named Chris and he leant me some of his clothes and he was willing to share his own sleeping bag with me for the night. Throughout the day, we bonded and did a ton of activities together and that was the point where I was so infatuated with him. During the night, we were in the same tent and sleeping kind of close to each other. When I was sleeping, I had a wet dream about him (

) and messed up his underwear. In the morning, I had morning wood and couldn't get it to go down. (

). Of course, we really had to wake up and go at that point, but I was just lying in Chris' stained underwear. When Chris woke up, I tried my best to cover myself up but it was pretty obvious. He looked kind of shocked and didn't really say much and left to wash himself up in the nearby bathroom. My horny ass teenaged self decided to masturbate to relieve the pressure and while I was in the middle of my session, Chris poked his head in. (

). He immediately went out of the tent and didn't return until like 20 minutes later so that we can tear down the tent and repack to leave. During that time, we didn't say much and left on the bus pretty awkwardly. When I got back to my house, I changed into my clothes and put Chris' clothes that he leant me into a bag and decided to just put it in front of his door for him to pick it up. I totally forgot that there was my dried you know what in it and it was a pretty obviously big stain. The next day during school, I tried to talk to him about everything that happened and just explain how I was thinking about this other bitch during the camping trip and that she and I made out briefly during the night and I couldn't stop thinking about her even in the morning. He kind of took that explanation and said that he understood, but I knew he didn't.

We kind of became distant after that and he's no longer my friend. But luckily, he didn't say anything to anyone, I hope. That's why I'll never go camping ever again...

Bounce

Yeah..

so many times actually

, but I always see the positive things in it because if I stuck with them I wouldn't have gotten to know the amazing people I am with right now

Spill sisTren.

Starstruck.

I wouldn't say "lost", we just drifted apart.

MusicLoverDude

I did lose a friend, but he was also my ex-boyfriend. You want to know more, just read my blog.

I'm fine with it though because I have nothing in common with him other than my Aspergers

Grumpy Gills

Yeah but then i found her in the wine section in whole foods

SkyN

Yes, so many years ago. She ended our friendship with no reason. After that, I've never had a friend again.

BadHabits

I had a best friend since I was 5yrs old and we were best friends for a long time. He moved house and we basically drifted apart and that sucked.

Stevie

Yeah. I feel like I did very recently, actually.

Mezter

A few. People change and so have I. I miss them tbh

Guernica

A lot. I literally don't have any friends left over from high school, all my friends now I've made in my 20's

Before I went to college, I only had one friend and he was my best friend. But after we started high school together, him and I just completely stopped talking or seeing each other. And it was awkward because he was in alot of my classes throughout high school and rode the same school bus as me. Are parents still keep in touch too. It's such a weird situation I try not to think about.

But I have plenty of new friends now so idc about him.

Haunter

Yes in HS, I was so shocked. My friend Rafael killed himself. Literally came out of nowhere. He didn't come off as depressed or anything. He didn't leave a suicide note... I just was so sad.. Because I seen this person every single day and he was always goofying off and never really quiet or seem depressed. I remember the I found out he died I cried. Just so unreal how someone you think you knew could be so depressed.

Awe that's so sad

HausOfGerard

Yeah, just recently actually. We just stopped talking, which seems to be the common thread between all of the friendships I've ever had.

Madam X

Yes, I've lost friends. Drifted apart from some too. I would say it is partly my fault though. I tend to push people away, even if I don't mean to.

Starburst

Every few years or so I find myself with a new group of friends. Their loss.

Ke$hamon

Always, I'm really insecure about it too. Friends drifting apart from me is one of my biggest issues and it always leaves me wondering why am I not good enough for them to keep me as their friend for more than 3 years?
It's hard for me to get close to people because whenever I do I know they'll just leave eventually and I'll be alone once again.

**** friends tbh.

Nathan's Nicely

My "best" friend. She completely disrespected me one day.

~mind you she had moved around this time so it became long distance~

I was going through a lot of family + health issues so I was already kinda M.I.A. But one week I didn't pay my cellphone bill / internet bill so I couldn't text her or call. She saw me talking to one of my friends online a week or so after I paid everything off and that pissed her off. (For those few weeks I kinda avoided her because all she did was complain about her privileged life. As somebody who was struggling a lot it sucked to constantly hear someone take everything around them for granted and complain)

She private messages me (not even texted) like:
Why did you ignore me and why are you talking to your other friends and not me?
(I didn't want to tell her I couldn't pay my bills because I was embarrassed) So I just replied with
She asked me why I was offline, and everyone I've been talking to are people that wanted to make an an effort to talk to me, and aren't so generally negative. I don't really need that in my life right now.. also I don't know why talking to whoever I want to talk to is a bad thing.

She got mad at me for not telling her why I was M.I.A for a week, and that ignoring her was wrong because she should be a priority

, and told me I OWED her an explanation.. because "when she went in the subway or away from home she'd tell me".

I never ASKED her to do that, I was fine not communicating her for a day or more if she was busy. I never thought she owed me any explanations because we both have lives and other friends.

It freaked me out because before this we NEVER argued.. yet it wasn't even an argument because she was constantly messaging me yelling at me. What ticked me off, because normally I'm patient in situations like this, is that she accused me of lying. I pride myself so much in not being a liar, so I take GREAT offense to that. I so badly wanted to tell her is this a friendship or a relationship? I don't owe you nothing. She went online after that conversation and kept indirecting me in Danish (which I obviously don't understand but the good sis Google Translate DOES!)

After that I realized it became too much trouble, and she turned out to be a completely different person than I expected. I deleted her number, unfriended her - but she went the extra mile to block me everywhere

but according to one of my friends she constantly asks about me still. What sucks about this is that a three year friendship went to waste because of some petty, possessive ********.
