in all honesty, i think it was a good for me to leave behind past friendships i had. especially since most of the time i felt as if i was just there, not as a friend but as someone they needed when no one else wanted to be (if that makes any senses?). it had made me realize that i never truely had a close friend the same way they did. of course, i will always cherish those memories we made that made me feel as if i actually belonged. but now i’ve come to accept that being on my own is actually best for my mental health. as cheesy and cliché as it sounds, i am actually content with being alone and am currently focusing on doing better for myself. yeah, i may be struggling at the moment with life and getting situated, but i know that i can get past these obstacles the same way i have done before.
