Having a friend who isnāt actually your friend. Sure, you guys joke around, laugh, have sleepovers, but thatās only 30 percent of the time. The other 70% is them belittling you, making fun of you, controlling you, not letting you have any other friends, kicking you, locking you out of buildings, and making your problems seem like nothing compared to theirs. They will even scream at you, say hurtful things, and block your phone number, but they will eventually come back and apologize. They will say they didnāt mean it, say they are just having a hard time, and say they want to be friends again. You will forgive them, and this will happen again and again rinse and repeat. They will make it seem like everything is perfect again, and they have your back. But all of the sudden you do something to make them mad, and even if it seems like nothing, they will still hurt you. This is a toxic relationship, and you donāt need it. Donāt believe them when they say theyāll be better, because theyāre lying. They wonāt keep it up. They will only hurt you more, and leave you wondering what you did wrong. Donāt forgive them. Cut them out of your life because honey, you can do so much better. I can do so much better.
