toxic friends and your experiences
i know people fall out with their friends, but i lost most of all mine. only ones i have now are recent (i don't have any old friends that i've know for longer than a year). reason being is that i dropped them because i believed i was toxic (i was 13/14) and i dropped them when they were being mean/lowkey bullies (cringe but being fr. also talking sh1t about their own friends and their appearances bc of how insecure they were, i couldn't handle it because once I spoke up and told the person they ALL including the person i told isolated/ignored me).
i recently reached out and apologised, only half way to realise to myself why i dropped them.
im work best alone, but it hurts when i get purposefully isolated/ignored. but i don't mind being alone. I want to hear other people's experiences

However she would always pull stuff like that then somehow turns me down..s...... reply
I dropped someone because they thought they were all that and a bag of chips. I knew them since kindergarten and dropped like that.
I dropped another person because i realized I was jealous of them and so created a situation where I was mad at them and gave myself a reason as to drop them. Thank god pandemic hit because I didn’t have to see them...... reply
Because of the way I was raised (always listening, never talking about myself, never speaking up) I was a real people pleaser. I would always ask questions and give advice to friends who would rely on me but they would never ask anything about me and I never learned to talk about myself but only listen. Then those "friends" accused me of being a ba...... reply
