I just went searching for a picture to show my boyfriend and I completely lost track of what I was looking for because I found old screenshots of texts my "best friend" sent me during the time I was moving down south. It's baffling to me for more than one reason. I, first of all, completely forgot just how mean and rude and hurtful if all was. I mean, I remembered it wasn't pleasant. But to read this shit again and to see just how nasty someone I loved treated me at a time when I needed them most is just crazy. And it's even crazier that this was not how the friendship ended. Because somehow I STILL valued it. But the friendship ended about a year after that. Or so. And it was because I called her out on treating me badly and trying to put me down. It was the first time I ever did it. I was just defending myself. And it wasn't mean or nasty. It was just something that had to be said. And I only even said it cause I had a little liquid courage. A little. I wasn't hammered. So I remember it all. And instead of her wanting to fix it, she told me to just not be her friend. Then began to project her faults onto me. Nopeee. I got out of her car and that was it. That's the last time we spoke. Ever. But, because I'm still a caring friend and can't just throw people away, I texted her. I still tried. Because I cared. But I still got nothing, thankfully. But her decision, I can confidently say, definitely was not the best decision for her. However, it was the best thing for me. Mean, toxic, and selfish people are not something anyone deserves. I've been at peace with all of this for almost a year now. But I'm so glad I was able to read those old messages, because it really reminded me of what a good friend I truly was and how mean she was to me. And I really have just so much to be thankful and happy for. And I can't look back and think any of that was my fault. The only way it could have been prevented it is if I just kept letting shit slide. And I'm glad I didn't. She was mean and I thought I needed that friendship. Clearly not accurate. Great friends. Amazing boyfriend. Wonderful family. A beautiful home. Happiness and love. I have it all now. I've come so far. ❤️
