Is it normal to feel drained in a friendship? You want to be left alone, but you cannot abandon them. Because that's what I've been feeling, I feel like I'm the only one making an effort to make our friendship work. Our friendship is so one-sided that it becomes toxic; however, I cannot cut them off. Is it the years that we spent together, or are it the memories that are holding me back? I don't know, but I want to breathe away from them. I don't want to be the bigger person; I don't want to understand them! But in the end, I always understand them; it's always like that. Our friendship makes me feel awful because I constantly think of ways to escape their grasp. I don't even know if they truly care for me, if they value our friendship, or if they're genuine in their intentions. Maybe it's just me, always thinking badly of them. Am I a bad friend? Or can I still consider myself their friend? Maybe I'm the problem. I don't know. I don't know.
I don't want to cut them off.
I don't want them to cut me off.
