One thing Ive learned in life, and learned fairly early, is that there is a VAST difference between being a friend TO someone, and being friends WITH someone. There are many people that I am a friend TO, but I dont really feel the same back from them, which prevents me from truly being friends WITH them. There are few who I can truly in my heart say that I am friends WITH. I really need to start cutting the first group out of my life, because one-sided friendships, just like one-sided relationships, are toxic. Especially when those people say they love me, but do nothing to SHOW it. There have been those who previously fit into the second group, but over the years have shifted into the first...they need to go as well. And, over time, as I get over the feeling that Im abandoning people who need me, they will be cut out of my life. Its just tough for me to break through my own wall of empathy.
