Am I cursing people to lose their job?

Am I cursing people to lose their job? I am in the C level division at my work in a small group of 50. I am in a admin role and have no one under me, so I tend to get closer to coworkers cross functionally. However the last 3 coworkers I have been fairly close to at work have been let go one at a time over the last few months. I obviously know it’s coming, and have to be confidential. However why does it seem everyone I “click with” gets let go? Am I cursing these people somehow?

    I'm sorry to hear this unusual coincidence is happening. Is there a pattern in why these specific people were let go?
