I Feel Me And My Friends Grew Apart

looking year to year, I notice I was friends with a certain person at first, then I wasn't a little later on. Some friendships just don't seem to work out, and won't work out for whatever reasons. And that's okay.

As life goes on, you discover yourself. Cheesy, but true.

While discovering who you are as a person and what you want or need from life, you start to discover who doesn't fit into the equation. Sometimes it's people you are kind of close with and can easily remove from the picture, but other times it's much more complicated.

You may be friends with someone for many years, go through a lot of stuff together, and then realize that they are also discovering his or herself. They may end up liking things or people that you don't.

And if you don't want to be involved in all of their new interests, especially if they start to turn into a different person because of those interests, you need to do what's best for you. In some cases, it's okay to be selfish and may even be better to be.
