Ok if your introvert friend tells you “you don’t count as people” you know they will ride or die with you for life. Not counting as people is the introvert Platonic friend equivalent of getting married.
My SO once told me that “time with you is basically me-time” and it is the most beautiful thing and the most sincere form of ‘I love you’ I’ve ever heard.
i want to add to this though that im not sure you can like, work at not counting as a person to an introvert? at least sometimes? for me its always been something inherent to the person, something i couldnt control or choose. ive known lots of people i really liked! but couldnt spend more than a half hour around. it wasnt anything they did specifically they just happened to be draining. some people just happened not to be? from what ive gathered theres not much to be done about it unless the draining person wants to rewrite their personality but that probably wont create a healthy relationship.
so like, if youre draining to an introvert, please try not to take it personally, it wasnt their decision and if it was they would probably love to be able to hang out with you more! they just cant.
