>>306437I did, a lot of people actually. Most notably family.
Have a pretty bad family background, don't wanna detail too much, father was abusive, divorce, live with mom.
I permanently cut contact with his side of the family for good reason, not just his actions.
Ended up "forgive and forget" reconnecting 10 years later, but after some time I just cut contact with him again.
My sister reconnected too and since then does anything for his approval, kinda insane.
Either way I couldn't handle the constant drama it caused, or the constant unwanted hour long phone calls or prompts for interaction.
Haven't talked to him for many years again now.
I cut contact with my sister for a year and a half too for the same reason. Reconnected, but a couple months ago just told her to fucking behave, keep me out of drama with mom and family.
I don't care for them really.
I just can't handle the stress of all these pointless, frivolous nonsense they can get worked up over.
Honestly? If I was in my fathers shoes with succubi like this around I'd have been a fucking drunk abuser too.
I can't take repetitive topics, people getting worked up about literally nothing and expecting, demanding you to care. I can't handle gossiping about randoms or family.
I don't care about politics, I don't care about succubi or family. I don't care for shit.
Why the fuck should I get panic attacks because mom or my sister is venting to me about eachother over some perceived slight that once I realize what sparked it I wish I could give them the Bart Simpson treatment… (Since you posted homer)
I don't wanna see 1000 photos or videos about my sisters son either. I don't care.
Let's not forget all the mandatory bullshit if you have family like somehow a birthday every other month or "namedays" (absolute retardation) christmas easter all kinds of bullshit.
All of it with some excuse to meet up and "catch up". Stress over getting presents too. I hate it.
For random people too.
I don't like keeping up with "acquaintances" so I regularly purged all contacts after graduation or job changes.
Flat out told some people on the street I don't really want to chat or "catch up" and they should leave me be.
I don't have the mental fortitude to be prompted randomly anymore and play along. I clearly explained that I wasn't trying to be hostile either.
Since they knew me as the weird loser to begin with they accepted.
TL:DR; Yes, I do cut contact with people as much as I can reasonably. I don't have the mental fortitude to handle all the minutia of social interaction. Neither do I care to.
I'm too mentally fragile and I'm not really wanting to change or "improve" on that front either.
