I'm absolutely horrible at updating. Maybe it's because a have such a normal, boring life. :) Anyway, so what's going on with me? Not much out of the ordinary. The main issue I'm having right now seems to revolve around friends and being let down one too many times by people I care about.
I mean seriously. My (former) best friend gets a boyfriend. I'm fine, I like him, we talk a little, she and I still hang out, everything's great. She dumps him five months later. Okay. No biggie right? Only she swears off boys, only to jump into another relationship less than a month later. This time, he's The One. Psh. Five months later, they're over. Her decision once again. Once again, she swears off boys. This time, I don't find out about her new boyfriend until they've been dating for almost three months. Am I the only one to think this is odd? I'm supposed to be her best friend, right? She and this guy are completely, head over heels in love with each other. I mean, they were talking marriage. And guess who got thrown aside? Yep. No more phone calls, texts, emails, visits, etc from my supposedly best friend. I tried to shrug it off. I mean, when you really find The One, you're supposed to want to be with them, right?
Well, yeah, obviously. I just don't think everyone else should be cut out of your life just because you have a girlfriend or boyfriend. Anyone agree?
Idiot boyfriend number 3 breaks her heart. Guess who she runs to for comfort? Yep, that would be me. She cries and begs me to forgive her for ignoring me for a full year. I can do that. I'm a nice, loving person, and I genuinely love her like a sister.
Only she goes and does it again. This time, I don't think I can forget. She's hurt me one too many times. This is really just the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back. Know what I'm saying?
So I have one best friend who chose her boyfriend over a lifelong friendship. My other best friend thinks she's pregnant and is threatening to run away as soon as she finds out. Yet another close friend decides to lie to me continuously over the course of three months. Kind of disappointing, don't you agree?
Don't get me wrong. I'm really over all of this. I have plenty of other friends who treat me better, after all. I'm really not venting here, just trying to sort through my thoughts.
I really do have the most amazing friends in the world. <3 Sorting out the true, stick-with-you-through-thick-or-thin, always-there-for-you friends who really love you from the fair weather friends is just a difficult process sometimes.
So here's to all the awesome friends I have, both in real life, and online. I love you guys! <3
Love,
