Being the “innocent friend” is people constantly making headcanons about you and acting like they know you more than you know yourself

Like why am I “asexual” because I’ve never had a boyfriend and why do I “hate talking about sex” when I’ve never said that

With my “friends” im the ‘mentally unstable’ one. My old friends worried ANYTIME I had a drink or a smoke, if I cried they’d make me promise not to kms or hurt myself, they’d say they don’t feel comfortable leaving me alone, anytime I talked to a guy they’d always tell me I should cut it off bc im not stable enough for a relationship. I tried to kms like 9 years ago… yes im depressed but im not actively falling apart?? Hello?? I’m actually fucking okay??

OMG YES! when I lost my virginity and told my friends they stopped talking to me for a bit and when I asked what was wrong they made a big deal saying "oh you were such an innocent person who was scared of having sex and now you completely changed I'm worried" like what??

Like yes I get being concerned for ur friend but I’ve done nothing to warrant such behavior from them?? Never have I hurt myself in knowing them, nor have I abused substances, like yeah I go on a bender once every few months but who doesn’t?? I mentioned once abt how I sometimes feel alone and all of a sudden im a suicide risk and they can’t be themselves around me anymore 😭 like grow up we’re adults here
