I don't have a best friend

Everyone i thought was my best friend clearly feels differently about it than i did 😂
Not to be dramatic but having a best friend would probably be pretty cool

Artificial labels almost always do more harm than good. If you are happy with your relationship with these people as they have been going, then let them be what they are, without worrying about if someone is your “best friend”.

Also, not everyone needs an actual “best friend” all the time. For example, having a “best friend” if you’re not confident in yourself can sometimes lead you to doing things that are really only right for this “best friend”, but not right for you. This will in turn hurt you more than help you, as now you’re letting yourself get taken advantage of in addition to whatever else was already going on, and that will turn into its own cycle.

Don’t let these labels fool you and cause anxiety, they’re just society-created bs. Remember that everyone is in the same boat, we’re all faking it till we make it….some are just better at covering it up than others.
