Be careful whom you hang out with, because your friends says a lot about who you are. It says what kind of person you are, and who you will/have become. You cannot say that you are the same person after hanging out with your friends for a long time.
I started hanging out a lot with Tanya as mentioned, and I slowly started to become like her. Insecure, an attention seeker and a boy obsessor. It took me such a long time to get out of this cycle, and it also took me a while to realize why and what had gotten my personality weak.
You are able to choose who you want to keep and shut in your life. Remember to always keep the people who actually appreciates you and who affects you in a positive way. I know that most of you guys have friends that are toxic and mean, and I know that some of you are also aware of this.
I also understand that it can be difficult to let go of your toxic friends. But if you don't let them go, you won't be able to open the door of blessings and happiness. You will find new people, you will make better friends, you will be happy you will become a better person. But you must let go of the toxic people in your life first, they have no impact in your life. You are just destroying yourself for free by keeping them.
Let's take Travis as our second example. He is a terrible influence today, why? It's because he didn't want to let go of his toxic and bad influenced friends who are in a gang and does/sells illegal stuff. He kept telling me how they had been friends for a long time and how they felt like a family to him. He also mentioned that they weren't as bad as they seemed and that they cared for him, although it was far from the reality.
Because of this, he was never happy. He would come home late because him and his gangster friends would either have gotten into trouble, gotten into conflicts with people or often start a fight with others. He even has several criminal records thanks to the "friends" that "cared" about him.
Choose intelligent friends and you'll become intelligent, choose positive friends and you'll become positive, choose criminal friends and you'll become a criminal. The choice is up to you.
