Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : That title makes me sound like the biggest douche of all time but that’s really about the long and short of it.

I have several friends who I don’t see often due to our separate lives, but we all share a text group chat together. Often I will be bombarded with messages expressing endless love and adoration for the entire group even though, at least to me, many of the people in it have become like strangers to me simply from such long time apart from most of them. I refuse to express that love back because I don’t want to lie. I shared this privately with one of the people in that chat I remain close to, and she told me it was “incredibly fucked up,” but I just can’t bring myself to agree.

Am I the asshole?
