After becoming more Aware my energy is just too sensitive and manny of them are no longer in my life. Yet here I am still seeking approval. I think staying home for 11 years as a stay home has drained me emotionally as well. I didnt get to really enjoy my teens as much from strict parents and got married very young and had kids didnt even really enjoy my 20s either. Im just surrounded with disappointments too. I guess I am hurt inside. So I feel lonely since the people I want to have bonds with disappointed me severely. Yea expect less I know but Its not so hard to be kind and supportive.

Oh boy, same. My ‘friend’ has told me some really heavy stuff, which is enough to scar a person’s reputation for life. Yet, I didn’t repeat a single word to another soul. But, during a time when I was going through a very challenging time in my life, I confided in her some things, a few weeks and months later, her family knew about what I said, as well as mine. I felt so numb. I felt so stupid. I felt so dumbstruck. How does a person with so many skeletons in her closet think it’s okay to casually share the challenges another person is going through at a difficult time in their life? She is actually bipolar, not just saying it as a curse word. So, my fault was I trusted a bipolar person with my sadness. No shade on bipolar, but def shade on my friend. I am now trying to rebuild the damage this person did to my life. She is completely oblivious to what she did to me, and continues to try to come back to my life. I am half tempted to curse her out and be rid of her. But then I remind myself not to bring myself down as a person to try to get revenge on a person with very little redeeming qualities about her. Her punishment is really her own damn life. She has no good friends. Her childhood friends abandoned, not at all surprised why. Everyone else she tries to make friends with takes advantage of her and disses her because she doesn’t know how to have healthy boundaries and gives an energy that manipulative people would easily try to take advantage of. And the two other close friends she does have are all married and moved away, and I’m going to guess, probably people who don’t think too much about her. I have allowed myself to let her walk all over me for so long because I always felt bad for her, that now, I almost wish others would continue to insult her so that I get my revenge. I no longer give to others in a way that would make me feel bad for over giving. But knowing what I let her get away with still hurts my self respect. I quite detest her now. She doesn’t deserve my kind of loyal, steady unwavering friendship in the slightest bit. Hopefully someday she will get hers. She apologizes frequently because she is beginning to realize all that I’d done for her, put up with for her and I guess how much she took all that for granted. But I’ve reached the point where no apology is going to work. I’ve reached the point where I can forgive, but there’s not going to be forgetting. I have reached my limit with her, and she deserves to see the reality of the nature adult friendships, and how ill-prepared she is for it, though she pines for it so much. I’m very annoyed by her now, can’t stand her, but pretend to be nice for civility’s sake. But she realizes what’s up. I don’t have any patience for her anymore, she tiptoes around me to try to get me to get emotionally involved in her drama series of a life again. But, I’m done. Can’t fool me twice. I let people have their consequences now, though it seems hard. Consequences make people grow up. And if there’s one person who needs that, it’s her.

@Alixa Maldonado Don’t be discouraged sis! I had a similar situation with a wonderful friend of mine. The enemy was trying to attack me with feelings of jealousy towards her! It was bothering me so bad because I didn’t want to feel that way towards her cause she’s a wonderful friend I want to keep. The Lord eventually pushed me to talk with her about it. I was so scared she would be upset but she was soooo loving and immediately began to pray with me and started binding the enemy! I was sooo happy and I’ve seen God brings us together closer and closer and I can truly say she’s my sister and I love her! I’ve still had to pray against those feelings! It’s a daily surrender but I’ve given it to the Lord and I know everyday he helps me! So I pray this encourages you to not give up! Give it to God and trust that he will work it out and transform you! Just because you’ve dealt with this doesn’t mean you are a bad person don’t allow the enemy to condemn you because there’s NO condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Unfortunately as believers were not exempt from temptation but we have the Holy Spirit to help us overcome the enemy! The Lord has given us the power to trample on snakes and scorpions and to defeat the power of our enemy Satan so nothing shall harm us( Luke 10:19)! be encouraged sis! ❤️

That last one whewww...it hits home. Had to end a friendship with someone I was friends with since I was 12. I kept questioning if it was the right decision but my life is honestly a lot more peaceful without them. I felt like everytime I made a choice about my life I'd have to explain my reasoning to this person lol. I'm glad to be in a different season now

9:53 I don’t think anyone exists like that. I feel like if someone is insecure enough to degrade anything about another person are most definitely not strong enough to own up to embarrassing cowardly ass behavior. I have never met a person yet that’s willing to admit they’re jealous and be honest when called out. It’s so freaking weird, who has the energy to be the hating type of jealous. Whenever I’m jealous I admit it and I provide compliments along with it. Help me be like you friend and not in a using way, but I like what you’re doing friend! ❣️

I’ve had the issue with #8 before, but I was the person who never shared about myself. I always felt like every second was about her and that I was just there for her to vent to, but when it came to my life I had no energy left to talk about it. It was not a 2-way street because she was always pouring out to me and using up my energy, but never asked about me and my life. I sat and listened to her complain about everything. I tried to communicate with her multiple times why I was struggling with our friendship, but nothing much ever changed. It was an emotional energy drain. I eventually ended the friendship and feel much better for it now, but I worry that she never fully grasped why I wasn’t happy.

I had a friend who when a colleague was describing how supportive I had been she had a look of disbelief on her face and she kept this look throughout the conversation. However, I am only now realising how envious she was and I did not recognise and the subtle ways in which she would put me down. It culminated in her betraying me badly, which we got over to an extent but she has said some things recently that reinforced what I was seeing. It is fortunate that she has not contacted me for 2021 so there is no requirement to have any dealings with her.

Everything you said 1 through 10 relates to me I have some friends like that and family mostly friends. I had one guy friend who wanted my company but he would never wanted to go out he always wanted to stay in. He would always brag about other female friends that comes over his house and would tell me oh we went to a restaurant we walked along the beach. So I did bring it up and he tells me oh next you come over we can go out. Never did. This was going on for about a year. Then one day text me a picture with a girl a selfie picture and I didn't reply and then I stopped calling him after that. He kept calling me I told sorry I can't come over anymore you have to many people coming over to your house and he was getting sick and so was I.

I had a friend do the subliminal judging thing. That was the final straw. As soon as we got off the phone, she made a subliminal status. That’s not the first time she did that too.

I had a friend do the very thing to me about belittling my accomplishments. I recently made the decision to return to college. My friend and I were having a conversation about the difference between my grades at 19 and the difference between my grades at 44. When I pointed out the differences my friends responds was what college isn't for everyone. I see how much I have grown as a person when I'm not going to do is measure myself against people that don't see the growth in me. Lately I haven't talked to her as much because talking to her really drains me. I am really struggling on how to end this friendship because in my heart I believe she does not have my best interest at heart she only wants to measure herself against me.

I felt as tho some people were not being real with me but when I tried to talk to best friend about somethings I was noticing -- she just ignored me. People often get the wrong impression of me anyway, but I think my closest friend thinks im just gossiping but im seeing REAL SIGNS. She just doesnt respond or provide feedback when she normal does about anything else. I didnt think she would misunderstand because i thought she was my closest friend but after listening and reflecting it may be more than that. It's a good thing i don't mind being alone so im just going stay to myself for awhile.

100% accurate. This year I understood very very well how detrimental is a fake friendship, even a family member, it is sad but true. And you know? Let's once and for all put down to earth and re-evaluate the idea that it's ok to always impose an opinion over what the others are doing. Critiques and judgement about the hard work of others is despicable. It is supposed to be a friendship, not a competition. A friend isn't a judge. It's ok to get feedback, but what makes an actual feedback is the advice about how to make it better. But the jealousy doesn't match with the feedback, only with the judgement and critiques. Positivity isn't always flowers and rainbows, is being a *conscious human being*
