If people stopped inviting you, that’s feedback too. It’s just the quiet kind.
REFLECTION
REFLECTION
Nobody sits you down to explain a fading invitation. It just happens, and the silence leaves you guessing, which is why it hurts more than a direct conversation would. Sometimes the reason has nothing to do with you: groups drift, schedules change, people get busy. Sometimes there is something, and it is usually smaller and more fixable than the story you are telling yourself.
If you want to know, you are allowed to ask one person directly and kindly. You can also be the one who invites. Either way, you deserve people who want you there, and looking for them is not rejection.
Whose invitations to you quietly stopped coming?
