A good friendship is where both put in the effort equally. I had a boyfriend once that wanted to take advantage of me because he thought I was an easy pushover. He was too cheap to even buy me a hamburger for myself, so he bought a big fat hamburger and split it. That's when I split! lol

I feel the same way. My loved ones knows that just because they don't have chat or voice contact with me , it doesn't mean I care less or love them less, it just means I need less socializing and more self care.

I ask virtually nothing from my few friends. I know better
