I’ve read a few threads on here recently about people feeling bombarded by contact from friends. These friends that are trying to maintain friendships during this time and reach out when feeling lonely seem to be branded selfish. I am left feeling really confused. When did it become selfish to want to talk to your friends during hard times? Introverts would you really rather your friends didn’t contact you until the day we are released? With no idea when this ends... do you not miss your friends? I’ve been trying to understand the introvert better but people are very judgmental on here. I am new to mumsnet and wonder if people are usually so rude and dismissive or is this a lockdown change? Really questioning humanity right now. I just want to feel connected to friends but this feels like the biggest crime!
