Having a lot of friends is great.
When you have a lot of friends you always have someone to talk to or hang out with.
But sometimes the people you hang out with aren't the kind of people you want in your life.
Maybe one of them says mean things and makes you feel bad.
Maybe one of them is really destructive and brings out the worst in you.
And maybe some of them are just straight-up assholes.
But they're your friends! Friends just put up with each other, right? WRONG!
You DO NOT have to be friends with people you do not like.
It's OK to say "fuck you" and keep going.
They will live. You will live. And you'll probably live better without toxic people in your life.
Cutting off people who make you feel bad about yourself is a valuable component of self-care.
And the only friend you'll technically have for YOUR ENTIRE LIFE...is you.
So don't be afraid to put your feelings first, and stop being friends with people you don't really like.
Because fuck 'em, that's why.
