people that complain about being lonely but then fail to maintain conversation or end up ghosting you?

the title already describes what’s on my mind. this is a little bit of a rant.

I think it’s seriously pathetic. peak victim mentality. I’ve met many people that do this but most recently I came into contact with someone that saw a post I made on this subreddit. THEY reach out to me, we bond over shared struggles and then ghosted. a few days go by and I visit their profile to see if they’ve been active worrying that something has possibly happened to them… only to discover they’ve made several new posts in various subreddits describing how much she’s struggling to make friends online… that she’s often subject to people either ghosting her, finding her too needy, not being accommodating of her needs. I actively facilitated and met those requirements but you ignored me? HUH? 🤣 so stupid

It’s just a tedious repetitive cycle. I’ve come to recognise how a lot of people that are lonely, have come to such a predicament because of their own actions. whether knowingly or unknowingly… and this is coming from a lonely person with no friends. If you cannot commit time or energy to sustaining a conversation why bother complain about your circumstances?
