So I am a junior in high school. You know how you get your “BFF” in pre school- elementary up until high school? I can’t believe I’m saying this but I recently let go of my “BFF” and I’ve never felt better. That person was very toxic for me. I had put up with this person for my whole life and I know people change when certain stuff happens in their lives but she would take it out on me and make me question my worth. She would often make me feel ugly and insecure about stuff that I liked. She had gotten mad at me because I had gotten into honor society and I was really happy, and she called the whole thing stupid. I would always tell myself i would stop being her friend but I could never really bring myself to do that. I admit it hurt me a little bit but I’m happy i had made the decision to finally tell her. I feel like weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I’m happy again and I’m hanging out with people I would’ve never thought I’d be hanging out with. I’m not looking for pity but I just want anyone who is dealing with a toxic person in their life to know that letting go of that person may be better in the end.
