Friendship Feels Like a Full-Time Job 😅

Ever had a friend who made you feel more exhausted than a Monday morning? That was me and Lily. At first, I thought I was just being dramatic—maybe I needed to loosen up. But then came the constant late-night texts, the guilt trips when I wanted some alone time, and the nagging sense that I was always disappointing her. Hanging out started to feel like a chore, not a choice. After missing one too many family dinners and venting to my brother, I finally told Lily how I felt. Nothing changed. So, I did the unthinkable: I stepped back. It hurt, but honestly? I felt lighter. Now, I’m learning to enjoy my own company and choosing friends who actually make me smile. Sometimes, the hardest goodbye is the one that sets you free. 😌 #ToxicFriendship #SelfDiscovery #LettingGo
