Just got out of a toxic friendship. It was the best decision I’ve ever made

I ended a 14 year friendship with my best friend 2 years ago. I had the decency to tell her why in an honest way. She had nothing to say other than “Sorry you feel that way”. Her response showed me exactly how she felt about me and I knew from that moment, I made the right choice. Thank you for this video!

I recognize myself as an "Unaware" I try to help but everything I do tends to make it worse.

i just dropped a toxic friend two days ago and it feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders

I used to be the Unaware friend, but overtime I'm so glad my best friends didn't dump me and actually helped me see that sometimes I was going too far. Yeah they may have knocked me upside the head a couple of times for it but they're honestly helping me grow and teaching me how to be a good friend. I'm trying my hardest to give them that kind of care in return, though I know I suck at it sometimes 😂

I would strongly recommend against the odd belief that all relationships have to end with some sort of formal discussion. Particularly with someone like a user or a faker, its best just to fade or simply become "busy" so that you no longer have to deal with them. This person doesn't deserve to plead their case, they will most likely use this sit-down to take their final digs at you and attack your vulnerabilities.

Very toxic things toxic friends do or say (no matter if they are unaware, users or fakers): 1. *We are friends - you owe me to do this for me!* You don't owe them anything. Tell them that you have your boundaries and therefore you can't or don't want to do certian things for others. After telling them they might say, that you are selfish but remember: Putting you wants over other persons needs is selfish. Putting your needs over other persons wants is self respect! If you currently can't meet your friend because you need to take care of yourself (whether it's mentally or physically) YOU TAKE GODDAMN CARE OF URSELF HOE 2. They dare you to do things that you don't want to do. You don't want to drink alcohol? You don't want to date that person? You don't want to go to a specific place? A real friend accepts your boundaries, even if they don't understand them, A toxic person will dare you to do things, that you don't want to do, either they are threatening you, or using specific phrases like ''Oh come on, you gotta try some new things!'' 3. They don't respect your privacy You have the right to have a privacy and it's secrets. You don't owe a friend to tell them personal things just because they are your friend. If they dare you to tell them something you are uncomftable with, they are clearly crossing your boundaries! 4. They hurt you on a regular basis and don't care about it To be honest, we all do things that are not okay, but it's totally natural. But a toxic friend refuses to apologize for their mistakes and toxic behaviour! Even worse, they might be mocking you or using common phrases like ''Dude, it's just a joke!'' Even when they know, that they've hurt you badly. 5. They freak out when you call them out on their toxic behaviour and deny everything Yeah, the title is saying it all 6. They threaten you on a regular basis 7. They tell lies behind your back 8. They only text/call you when they need you. Look out! I hope, this helped.

Toxic friendship even when you realize it’s not good for you it still hurts to leave.

I was literally thinking about this yesterday and needed advice

Actually my "friends" don't clarifies as these types... They simply constantly ignores all my tries to make our bonds stronger. Also they don't give me anything beside our laughter... And really often forget about me...

What about the person who is always there for that toxic friend? The one who always is their buddy, the one who will listen to their school drama, and will help them through their problems? Because that's what i am to everyone I know at this point. I give up everything just to make sure that they are happy. But they still choose their school friends over me. Lol I'm coming on the internet to complain like everyone else.

When you're a popular, you have *all* of these friends.

I'm a bit scared I'm becoming the unaware friend, people tend to come to me to vent or for advice and over time I've become a little nosy. I'm a very blunt person so I often I say things that come off as rude.

If everywhere you go smells like crap, check your shoes

I'm selective when it comes to friendships. I got out of several toxic ones once I learned they were users and fakers. I cut them off after graduation because I refused to be their doormat for one more second. Their requests became overwhelming and ridiculous. I started to build resentment. My judgment was so poor that I thought the people I hung out with at school were good. They started only talking to me when they needed something from me. Don't say yes so often that people start taking advantage of your kindness and using your good nature against you.

I was friends with a guy that fits the description of “unsure” at first I just accepted him for who he was, then realised our relationship was toxic and cut him off. Haven’t looked back since! Great video.

I choose very carefully people who are my friends, so it takes verry long time to make friendship with me, but then i am sure they are not something like fakers or users. Its better have few friends than those toxic types.

I just cut off my toxic friend and I'm scared of how she's gonna act when school starts back because we have a lot of classes together and she was one of my only friends.

I looked this up because she I don’t feel like she cares as much as I do and she proved that today.

Who needs friends anyway no friends no problem :)

There is a boy in my school. He is really sweet and nice because he wouldn't do any harm to anyone (he'll only distance himself from them if the other person does wrong to him). However, I treated him so badly a long time ago and I don't know how to say sorry. I really feel bad about myself, because he doesn't deserve to be treated the way I did. I'm often scared of social situations, so saying sorry costs me a little bit more than the average person. I don't want to be a bad classmate and neither a bad friend. What do I do? ;_;

Its hard to be friends with unaware types if you have depression .. They don't know their boundaries and its exhausting having to keep explaining stuff to them also its hard to keep the trust .

I’m definitely the “unaware” but I don’t start that way, i’m just always trying to help when friends consistently ask for my opinion. But then they get mad and say i’m negative or insensitive 😩. Why ask for my opinion if you don’t want to hear a truthful response? I never try to hurt my friends feelings; but some of my old friends would swear that I was just being mean 🧐. I’m not a therapist so from now on I won’t be giving my humble opinion. I’m not god so what do I really know lol🙈, all I can do is offer help and wisdom. I always ask for the same in return but I attract self absorbed people... I think I honestly only have one healthy friendship. I love the girl to the moon and beyond!

I went to a psychologist who later became a User. She wanted me to break all ties with my non-abusive side of my family because she herself had trauma with her own mother, but didn't bother doing anything about my abusive family or my school issues. She also wanted me to move in with my best friend or an institution. I ended up just stopping going to her...

I stopped texting my best friend first and we haven’t seen each other in a while now

This is all very true! I especially like the part where they talk about certain people who gravitate towards someone, who maybe isn't as good looking as they are or maybe isn't as smart or successful. When they stand next to you, they feel that it makes them look SO much better, which is a rotten reason to befriend someone. I know from experience that there are people out there who want to keep you in your place, or rather, the place that THEY think that you should be in. They will even go so far as to get ANGRY if something really good happens in your life or you achieve a difficult goal where THEY may have failed. They honestly don't want you to succeed and they want you to be...in their eyes, UNDER them status wise. That is usually WAY below their status in life, because if they fall down a little and you move up a notch, they will be closer to YOUR level and their ego would suffer a lot. These people are not just friends your own age either. I have even seen adopted parents do this to their own adopted children AND the spouses of those children as well. It makes them feel better about themselves and what they're not. Their pride comes at a cost...your dignity and wellbeing. Please distance yourself from those toxic types as they are EVIL!

I feel like almost every new friendship i make turns out toxic because of my anxiety and high sensitivity

I was best friends with a faker, for over 6 years. I didn’t realize it until last year. We started getting closer, but the more she used me the more angry I got. I could never have a problem with her or tell her if she was hurting me, or she would take it SO personally, and I’d end up feeling guilty, apologizing, and then suffering alone in silence. So a couple months ago I told her that the way she was treating me made me sad and that I thought she might be a fake friend. Of course she got angry, but this time I didn’t apologize. I held back but only a little. Now I see her befriending the mean popular girl and I honestly could care less if she goes through the same thing I did.

Sometimes I call my friendships toxic but It's because we tend to mock each other way too much and we make fun of tragic parts of our lives (my mother's dead but they joke about it, and other things), however, we support each other a lot and we help our friends anytime they need us, we're little assholes but we love that, black, dark humor

Okay I have a lil rant here about a toxic friend I have. Ok so this friend is just so in her head and she thinks everything revolves around her. All of my friends have issues and she never acknowledges it and instead just dismisses it and says her life is "worse" than all of ours. She complains 24/7 about her mom's and her relationship not being the best but let me tell you her mom is THE sweetest person out there like oml I can't even explain how nice she is and I know for a fact that she loves her and talks to her all the time but she's so stuck on the "my mom doesn't care" she doesn't realize it. And she complains about how she makes music and nobody likes it even though she had over 1k listens on one of her songs on sound cloud but she says "it's not enough" and it makes me mad, so all these people listened to your song and enjoyed it and you say not enough!!!. All of this is just the tip of the problem. Once she faked a suicide. One night she said she couldn't take it anymore and I was scared as hell, texting her, calling her no answer. Next day I go to school verge of tears and I try calling her and it kept sounding like she hung up on me so I asked my other friend to call her and she immediately picked up?? And later on she said "nobody was paying attention to me, I wanted attention" SO THERE'S PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT ACTUALLY FEEL LIKE THAT AND YOU USE IT AS A FORM OF ATTENTION!!!. Overall she just wants us to pity her and give her attention and without it she just makes up a bunch of bull crap to get it. There's so many other things that she has done and I just can't take it anymore. I'm a nice person and I don't know how to cut ties with her. (I pray she doesn't see this..) sorry for it being long..

Via this video, I discovered that I have this unaware friend. I thought she is that person you can tell whatever you want but she's always on your business and act as if she knows everything about life.

I have close family that are the 'unaware', and a couple as the users and even two that are pretty toxic. I found the unaware to be the most frustrating, as you want to love them fully but they keep doing it over and over. When the unaware doesn't change no matter what you try, what else do you do when they're so dear to you?

I just dropped my toxic best friend of 10+ years and I feel great.

my “best friend” constantly talks bad about me, criticizes my body and face and is just toxic over all. the issue is she always regrets it and texts me saying sorry. but idk what to do anymore. i’ve tried to stop being her friend. it has never worked. whenever i tell her what she’s doing is toxic she starts making fake accusations and calls me toxic. help.

I don't just straight up abandon toxic relationships. I work real hard to develop the toxic individual into a better person. Sure I don't get any respect for that but it makes me smile knowing that I've both changed their own life for the better and bettered the lives of everyone they interact with. However I do I have 1 really stubborn friend who refuses to learn anything or change their ways and though they got their comeupance I can't help but feel bad.

What if my friend is always by my side (whether I like i or not) and tells their mother EVERYTHING about me? I know they would talk about me to their family because their mother would talk badly about me to my mom and her friends (I'm their only friend)? I don't think they know what their mother is doing, and if they do know they think its ok : /

Users feed of empaths like crazy. I haven't had a break in months because I'm apparently sensible and rational and a good listener. When I cut off most social media suddenly all the users remembered they have my phone number so I still don't get to sleep. I've been a very grumpy introvert for the last couple months...

Just dropped 3 toxic friends, and thriving!

I'm really glad this video got uploaded because I am currently in a toxic relationship, but I am having struggles if I should stay or not. I have already talked to them, but they just won't listen. They always judge me for my desicions, criticize what I do, tells me who I should be, and tells me who I should be friends with

my friend literally acts like she is ill anytime she sees me having fun with other ppl. i’ve noticed every time i talk about my other friends she gets irritated and changes the convo. but she such a lovely person despite that.

But like, what if you have a friend that physically CANT be severed, such as a sibling or another family member

i used to be unaware, sometimes i can be still. But i tend to catch myself before it becomes super bad.

its hard to get out of toxic friendships sometimes, especially if you have been friends for a while. because you still care about them no matter what they do.. im in a toxic friendship but im so afraid of being alone, and i just can't bring myself to let go. even though its part of the reason i thing about ways i could hurt myself everyday to get out of the loop of getting physically and emotionally abused by her its just hard to let go

why so little views?

Im telling my extremely ANNOYING AND TOXIC friend im not her friend tomorrow so ye lmaoo

I’ve been with a toxic friend for 3 years, she’s a user, every time I get into a better friend ship with someone else she hangs out with them more and ignores me, she gets mad at me for silly things as dumb as video games and on certain days will pretend I don’t exist.

All these videos have made me realize how much of a horrible person i am that doesnt deserve any friends. i try my best to be a good person but it doesnt work. everyone just pushes me away and i completley understand why and feel like i deserve it.

The many videos about Narcissism helped me a lot!

I feel like im a “user” but not in a horrible way. Im always sad and angry so my friend cheers me up but you see because my family never really taught me to cheer myself or anyone up so I just try my best but Im REALLY bad at it so I just end up giving her food and stuff.

I dropped a toxic friend about a week ago. Did it over text. It felt liberating at first, but then worry started to creep in as I reflected over all the terrible memories we made together, and the fact that I have to see him for another school year. I'm going to try and build the courage to tell him to never speak to me again. (he says he is understanding of how he made me feel) He also said the way he treated me was unintentional. Unintentional or not, this friend brought me pain throughout the 9 years we have known each other. And I cant take it anymore.

I walked away from a friendgroup. Worked through the "fallout" and now im feeling empowered. Stepping back broadens my perspective aswell as broke the defective cycle of social death.

My life is toxic.

Well isn’t that something * cries

The "unaware" friend rang so true with me. I am the unaware friend in most aspects. I don't necessarily think I know things better than other people, but I have been giving unwarranted and unwanted advice and judgement because that's the kind of relationship I used to have with my older sister, and I was on the receiving end of it. I got called out on it yesterday, and though it hurt my feelings, I'm doing my best to hold my tongue on topics I shouldn't comment on.

I just recently cut ties with a toxic male friend. He would always insult me with degrading words, call me ugly & criticize my looks, and misuse and take advantage of my kindness.

Never clicked at a video so fast ever before

This is the scariest video I've ever seen in my life. I have no clue what kinds of relationships I have with my friends, so I don't know if they see me as toxic, or if they're the toxic ones. I man, I'm very nice, I always stay true and loyal to my friends, I always listen to what they have to say, but I feel like they think that since I talk to them very often, I'm toxic. They frequently call me "annoying" because I love cracking jokes with them, and I've been the same way since I was little. I think my friends are gradually becoming more and more distant from me, despite how nicely I treat them. I don't know what's right and what's wrong anymore. I want to have fun, but they don't like it when I do. Sometimes, they even outright insult me because of the jokes I make. Some don't even care about my accomplishments or my personal life. I always love to get to know more about them, but love joking and hanging out more. So, can anyone PLEASE tell me who is more toxic: me, the friends who support me, or the friends that don't?

I just got through a toxic friendship, literally hours ago. It was the worst friendship of my life. She constantly lied to me and did it unabashedly, and I couldn’t trust her. She was selfish, rude, and incredibly judgmental. She made me feel guilty for everything, and I felt so trapped in that friendship. I wanted to get out but couldn’t, she would guilt trip me and had me sobbing myself to sleep so many times. I felt like I owed her something, and I was the doormat to her shoe. Now I can see how much she had been manipulating me and how awful she was treating me. She never cared about me, and said that to me to my face. I couldn’t get out though, because she was the only best friend I’ve ever had. She was so sweet, AT FIRST. She was so caring, AT FIRST. She was so gentle, AT FIRST. Everything changed though, once I told her parents she was suicidal. I called her for two hours and she talked about killing herself. She talked about letting go. She talked like this was her last day, she started giving away all the money she had and distancing herself from everyone. And her voice... she sounded so defeated and dead. I knew I would regret for the rest of my life if I didn’t tell someone and she killed herself. So I talked to my parents and they called her Mom and explained what happened. It’s been a month since that day, and she never spoke to me once. I just messaged her yesterday apologizing, which now I see I didn’t need to do. Why was I apologizing? I was trying to save her life! I wanted to help her! I sent her a four paragraph message about how I loved her(she was my cousin) and how I missed her and thought she was incredible. You know what she sent back? “:my name:, I’m fine. Our friendship is over. The last month I’ve spent not texting you has made me so much happier. You can make new friends.” Just like that. Our twelve years of knowing each other and three years of friendship were GONE because I was trying to help her. I was trying to help her! I started crying immediately after that message because it hurt so much. I felt like giving up, but then I realized. This was the push I needed to break away from this toxic friendship. I didn’t reply to the message, instead I blocked her on iMessage and all social media’s. I still hurts what she said to me and I’m sure it’ll still keep hurting, but I can see clear as day now how harmful she was to me. If you’re seeing this(you know who you are): Please never do this to anyone again. I will not be your doormat for you to step on. All those times I’ve helped you with homework, grieving, and advice are gone now. This was your choice, I will no longer be manipulated by you. Thank you for ending the friendship, I needed to get away but didn’t know how to do it. I would say I hope you have a good day, but all the late nights I’ve spent talking to you, the sobs I’ve shed for you, the anxiety attacks I’ve had because of you say otherwise. Never treat anyone how you’ve treated me. Have fun with your life!

sometimes these videos make me super self conscious on every little mistake i have made in the recent past

I feel as though im becoming an unaware friend, I have ADHD so I can Impulsively blurt out stuff without thinking. I am also a naturally nosy person who often gives people advice

A lot of the people I hang out with/ used to hang out with are toxic. Two people (a couple) were toxic in several ways. The girl was Unaware and Faker, and the guy was a User and Faker. The friendship hung on a thread for a long time, and we fought constantly about their behavior and how both of them kept trying to force the rest of us to do certain things, or would try to force their beliefs on us. Another girl is an Unaware. She's nice, but sometimes she will spam me and some other people with messages about wanting to play a game with us, even when we are in school. She's busier now and doesn't do it as often, so it's not a big deal and I'm still kinda friends with her (she lives far away, so we rarely talk now). A fourth friend is just refusing to do work, and despite our efforts to encourage her to study with us, or let us help her with homework, she's refusing to put much effort into her classes, and will probably not graduate with us. I don't plan on talking with her much, if at all, after graduation, but I want what's best for her, and though I don't try to force anything on her, it is sad that she's not getting anywhere so far. She also has begun to consistently go through my bag and purse daily, and I have repeatedly told her not to, so I'm starting to make a stronger barrier between us. I'm pretty sure she's just doing it for attention, but she has no concept of personal space and it stresses me out. She knows this. There are some other toxic people I know (two girls I used to be friend with in elementary school that I have classes with now, and a random girl that somehow figured out where I live and keeps telling my best friends that I'm a horrible person because I'm friends with her ex) that cause a lot of problems, so I avoid them when possible. Sorry I wrote so much. I just had to deal with five of these people today and this video couldn't have come at a better time.

I have a friend who I think is toxic or manipulative, I often feel like she doesn't care about my problems. She would focus on herself. She would also yell out stuff I tell just to her. There's one thing that still makes me angry and I wish I did something about it, it's something I haven't forgotten. Basically I told her that I had a really bad headache, without like any hesitation she just said "how do you think I feel?!" in a rude voice. Making my problem feel worthless and not needed to be brought up.

I ended 3 years of toxic friendship yesterday. It's the very best for both of us cause she did not appreciate me as a friend and was jealous of everything that I have. The friends I hang out with and my relationships. She breaks them and than tells me that it was the best for me. She would always bring me down and tell me I am a bad friend and that I flirt with everyone she knows when all I do everyday was work and come home to chill and play some games on my computer. But I am happy it ended because I don't want to feel like a piece of shit for staying in it.

If only I knew this before my "best friend" pulled a little hurt on me

Last night I was literally crying because I don't know if my friends we're real frinds

Got rid of some bad friends that were toxic. I'm very picky when it comes to picking out who my friends are. Maybe that's why I have very few friends because I'm very picky of who I choose to be my friend. It's hard to find good friends. This is a true fact people !

A toxic friend I had (and broke off ties with) was a faker and faked depression, anxiety, and ADHD to one up my friend who was actually having problems. He also follows me and my friends around. I’m so glad he isn’t my friend anymore.

Unfortunately I’m definitely an unaware friend

Omg, my ex-best friend was literally all of these- happier now that I cut her out of my life

A few weeks ago I cut off a toxic friend and honestly, it's like I don't have weight on my shoulders and life is more exciting when spending it with good people

You get constantly have to make the effort to communicate ! It can be exhaustive ! I cannot tolerate " fake" individuals, users, liars, and those who are jealous & seriously screw you over !! One is better having one or two close friends (male or female) that are actually legitimate or being alone than to deal with those listed above !! Good luck !

How does one get rid of a toxic friend of 11 years?

Guess I can't say I'm unaware now...

People really out here getting used try to cut the friendship then accept them back into their life because they feel like they have no one else. It’s me I’m people

When they make you feel useless and obviously do things to hurt you as much as they can... when you even don't know how to leave that toxic friendship. I am hurt...

Unaware, families are like this, i always wanted to study music and creative writing, but i was forced into science instead

2:26 these is one of my "friends"

I just came to this because I just cut out 2 people and I hope I made the right decision. but I feel more relief that I don't have to interact with them and put up a facade anymore.

Hi! I’ve just dealt with the unaware friend, it had been going on a for a few months. I’ve walked away and it was the best thing. She crossed my boundaries to many times.

I think I’m the unaware and user kinda friend. Welp, I’m gonna watch “how to be a good friend” next.

Interesting I just told my friend “you know there is something wrong with you if you want to be my friend.” It is one thing to do it because God tells you to. But to be my friend because you want to? That’s sick. I’m a totally toxic person. I don’t think I will change.

i had that toxic friend for 4 years and she always made it about her self and acts like a victim she always made me feel bad about myself and when i had a boyfriend who made me feel wanted she tried to control me over him so when she couldn’t do that she ended our friendship and i felt sad but after this video i’ve realized that it was the best for me :)

yea the problem is everyone i know is super toxic in every way so im lonely asf the only thing i have is my pc to play video games i rarely play outside with "friends" cause they are toxic or a lot of them dont go outside

I like this channels videos, however, sometimes it seems like their views are more opinion than fact. I could be wrong of course, its just how some of the videos feel to me.

I have a " freind " who I believe is a faker. She's kind of like a blaster, but were not involved in a relation ship. She's always blowing up at me. She assumes alot of things and seems to shift from your ok to I like you to I hate you. The problem is shes freinds with all of my other freinds and leaving her is like leaving all of my freinds. I need some advice, if you are in or have been in a relationship like this can you reply and give advice please?

*realizes that my best friend is unaware and an user but still terrified to tell how I feel to her and the entire group of “friends” *

I unfriended my friend I had for 30 years and I don't regret it

I think most my friends are toxic.....makes sense I mean whodwant to be friends with ME?

My ex friend kinda all of these, if I didnt say thank you to my parents she would give me long lecture on how bad and evil a person I am and I cried and she just continued to moan about how if she was my mum she would be depressed becuase of me :( then she would get angry at me for the smallest things for example I sent her a tik tok and she didn't like the music or something in the tik tok so she called me stupid and shouted at me and this happened multiple times the insults I rememeber than came in often were "weirdo" "stupid" "didapoimtnet" "I can't believe you" "you have ruined my life" and I promise I have done nothing to ruin her life like that. I have always tried my hardest to be the best friend for her. The hardest insult was "you don't care about me" she would say that if I talked to another person. Even if I was only talking for about a minute even though she never cared aboutt if I was upset she would just say "oh it will be fine" or something but if she was upset I would right a full page about how everything will be fine and how amazing a person she is. That's what I kept telling myself, that's she's amazing. I was lieing to myself cause I didn't want to relize she is a bad friend. and also I introduced her to my friends and she became close to them and I didn't mind that but then she would start only wanting to hang out with them and she would plan it on the gc that has them me and her so I though she was asking all of us but no when I said "could I come? x" and my other friends said yes she would privately text me saying "omg I don't want you to come" "you ruined it for me" "I'm not going if your going" and I just sat there crying reading all those messages. At the end I did come because I gained a little confidence that quickly went away after she yelled and bullied me again. Anyway a few days ago she cut me of saying "I don't like being around you but I love being around *my other friends*" then she said "and I also feel unsafe around you so we're taking a long break yiu can only talk to me in class if the teacher says to" but I gained confidence that day I just said "OK" and made new friends I'm so happy now, btw there was nothing I done for her to feel unsafe if we were together and a creepy guy was walking down I was always the one to walk nearest to the guy or whatever anyway sorry if this seems rushed I was trying to get all my feelings out.

i just ended a toxic friendship with someone who is a user + faker with narcissistic behavioural patterns. my everyday life is so peaceful and my mental health is better than ever. end toxic relationships, you have the right to do things that are beneficial to you

My friend has been acting bad (at least in my opinion) recently. He is rude to me and my friends when I am with them and calls us bozos. And I have this friend who is a girl and everytime I ask her something, they go like, “ooooohhh so you guys are dating now?” And I am honestly really annoyed by him. He even tries to be the leader in group projects and ignores other people saying they are the leader and makes fun of my friend because of his height. I feel like I shouldn’t be his friend anymore, but I don’t know if I should make the decision.

I think fakers are the ones in highest abundance

.... second...?

i used to be the unaware toxic friend as a kid, right now I'm a teen. I have toxic parents so I suppose that was where it came from. I look back and I am shocked as to how I treated my friends. I recently had some flashbacks remembering things from my childhood I had forgotten for years as to the different ways I hurt people. I recently became a lot more self aware with meditation and mindfulness and have had many insights. I lately have had toxic friends who have hurt me so it hurts to know that as a child and teen I hurt people like that.

I can assure you, while it won’t be easy, it will be a rollercoaster of emotions... when you finally cut them off and get closure, life really does get better! And so does your self worth!

wait why is this video back

If the Video isn‘t 4:20 then don‘t Panic! Just make it 4:22 because it‘s 4:20 too!

I know someone who was a 'User' and would only contact me if they wanted something. But then it escalated and I was no longer comfortable even confronting them about projects. Luckily it was online, so I could slowly pull them out of my life. I still have scars of low self-worth from my past experiences, but now it's time to love myself again. Sometimes I wonder if I may seem like a 'User', but I try to go back to ask the person more, and let them open up, not me doing all the talking. Also show remorse and apology makes you a better person.

My “friend” is a faker and I want to tell them that I don’t want to be friends anymore, but they’re the snobby type. I’m afraid that if I tell them they’ll find some way to destroy my reputation for the rest of my school life. Help.
