Tonight, I ended a three year friendship.
It wasn't something I planned to do but it was necessary.
When you have toxic people in your life, the best thing to do with them is cut them out.
I wish that I could say that I am unaffected by my decision, or that I handled the emotional fallout in a responsible way, but that would be a lie.
I have basically eaten my feelings.
I feel sick and gross and bloated and I'm still angry as fuck that I wasted so much time on someone who, ultimately, was not worth it.
But life is a learning experience and this is just another learning experience.
Right?
Tonight I am grateful for strength of will. For the fortitutde of spirit and mind to do what is necessary even if it isn't pleasant.
