My thoughts on friendship

I've been misunderstood by some people for things but almost every ended friendship of mine... They've tried to come back and be my friend again. But I have to respect myself and boundaries. Depending on the situations.
Otherwise though, my best friends have been my friends almost my entire life lol i love them with all of my heart for sure
I guess I'm one of those people who has a lot of energy so a lot of people can read it the completely wrong way and I can be very overwhelming and exhausting for people I guess.
So when I'm faced with those people it's like okay. I guess I'm bothering you. I'll just leave

And then they end up missing me and trying to be my friend again. But I'm like no, no, my feelings are still hurt lol

There's more details but that would require me to write a full novel 🤣

And that sounds like I'm not admitting my own faults but I'm aware of them. I'm probably a lil more aware than I should be of them. We all make mistakes right but also not everybody is meant to be your friend. Being occupied is one thing of course but if someone’s purposely picking and choosing when they want to treat you like a friend (or at least treat you like a person) then that’s one-sided and a one-sided friendship isn’t a real friendship. And I’d rather have only 1 friend that I can trust 100% of the time than 100 friends I can only trust 1% of the time.

Agreed. I’m sorry people have treated you this way. I’m still working on that one friend, but whoever it is, they’ll be worth waiting for. My fault is that I’m quick to write people off. If we’re developing and then, all of a sudden they don’t have time for me, I’m perfectly fine with it; moving on. I don’t get my feelings hurt and I won’t waste a whole lot of time on that person in the future. Just the way I’ve always been
