Expendable

I think about all the rude things that have been said to me by people i cal friends and ask myself why i put up with it , why am i so weak and insecure i hate to say that maybe they were never friends to begin with, friends respect you and i often feel a lack of respect from the ones i keep close

I can pour out my heart and they don’t care , well one in particular i honestly think I’d have to die to feel appreciated and that’s something i hate to say

Isn't it better to be alone when the company is that horrible, these people are obviously not friends, don't call yourself weak you're not the problem here they are

Deep down i always feel like that’s very true , but being friends from childhood always seems like it means you’re meant to be friends forever

I know I don’t deserve the treatment but I’m always scared to let go

in reply toPizzaparty

Well then I'm really sorry for you. Best of luck

You’re right about what you said before i just never wanna admit the truth about these people

Yes...instead of using the word "alone", I'd say it's better to be without a toxic person in your life.

Yes , I’ve made excuses for this person for a long time

in reply toPizzaparty

Time for this person to be ousted into the toxic friend pile and for you to pat yourself on the back for having the courage and strength to do so. No more excuses. Block and no more contact no matter what. It has to be a clean cut..and YES you CAN do this. 😊⚓👍

Then it's time since you've brought it up.

I heard somewhere about a statistic estimating that, on average, 50% of any one person's friends don't like them. A bitter pill, and why I've become shockingly stringent with my "friendship-selection-process". It involves applications, background checks, documents filled out in triplicate and by hand, appropriate sacrifices during the equinox, all basic and rational stuff, truth be told.

Lol I understand, the crazy thing is I’ve been friends with these close people from childhood, we weren’t around each other always as kids but we always met up at different points in our lives then we got close

The person isn’t all bad but definitely has a lack of respect for me , im just the type of friend who’s loyal so they never have any fear of me cutting them off

I'm Enigmaticide's best friend and he's right. It's a rigourous process I've been the only one to pass the tests and fingerprint process plus he asks for letters of recommendation..kidding ..however very correct answer in that you must be very careful in who you meet and spend your time with. Get to know them slowly. 1 step at a time. Nobody's perfect but they can be a perfect friend for you.

Oh this is a great question for me as I have tons of experience in disloyalty of friends. I have some insight into being great at pushing people away before they leave me. When I was diagnosed with chronic painful syndrome because I had been easily triggered by symptoms at that point, I had lots of cancelled plans I had to call off at the last minute at times. They thought I didn't want to be bothered which was painfully untrue. Some friends who are truly friends have been there and back with me. One from kindergarten and one college. I've also met 2 lovely new friends during this coronovirus outbreak when I did a bit of shopping & dropping off some needed items for them because they couldn't get out. I also met a very special friend as well.

When I worked I had lots of aquaintances and so called friends and we went out all the time after work.

Let me share some wisdom I've learned inmy life., it's not quantity it's the quality of friends. 1 loyal friend beats the pants off 2 lousy one's.

All my best. You have a friend in me 😊

Funny thing is I don’t have a slew of friends I literally only speak to 3 most of the time but the closest one , i often feel like she doesn’t like me deep down o

in reply toPizzaparty

That's okay. I have few friends. Why do I want lots of toxic people calling themselves my "friend," when they're fake. I've learned a lot through life and I would say I'm pretty wise since I've been through this. Put your energy toward the good friends and be thankful you have no toxic ones...toxic friends are not healthy for you ..you're too good for that, we all are.

😊 My best😊
