Friends Start Feeling Like Strangers
Ever had that moment when you realize your friends are more interested in changing your playlist than actually listening to you? That was me last year, stuck in a group where my quirks were punchlines and my achievements were met with eye rolls. At first, I thought I was just being sensitive, but when I found myself dreading every group hangout, I knew something was off.
I tried to fix things—texted first, made plans, even laughed off their digs. But it felt like I was the only one holding the friendship together. The final straw? When I got a new job and they acted like I’d betrayed them. So, I started saying yes to new invites, joined a hiking club, and slowly, real friends showed up—people who actually celebrated my wins and let me be me.
Sometimes, you have to let go of the old to make space for the good stuff. Trust me, it’s worth it. 🥲🌱
