The line in the song Creep that hits the hardest is, "I want you to notice, when I'm not around".
Be the change. If you think of your friend, give em a text even if its just a quick "Hey. Thinking of you. Love you, miss you" whatever
this is tantamount to changing who you are in order to find out how people feel about you
That's not necessarily a bad thing. Especially as one could just as easily spin this in a more empathetic light: in acknowledging one's own desire to be seen, we can realise that it's likely that many other people feel similarly.
