Why bother?

I keep my circle small for a reason, I don’t like people. The one person I’ve been friends with for half my life, who I’m always there for when they’re always feeling down about something, chooses to try and bring me down and make me feel like shit too just to make them feel better, make me the centre of a joke at every opportunity. I guess there’s a reason why I don’t confide in them, like they confide in me.
