Sometimes it’s hard to practice leaving a relationship or friendship when it no longer serves both parties. There’s no hard feelings, there’s just no space in their lives for you anymore. It’s nothing personal… maybe that’s part of the problem? I tried for two years to be patient and flexible. We live in the same metropolitan area. That’s not a functional friendship. I’m not here to guilt anyone into being my friend, or be an obligation or burden in their life. I hope they don’t feel slighted I walked away, but Idk why they’d care now anyway.
I know I had shit timing with the dam breaking and feel bad about it. This never should have culminated to this point. I also know everything I said was still true and the result would have been the same whether I inquired two months ago or six months from now. I hope they won’t be mad at me, and will at least become indifferent, if not relieved. I can uninvest and be at peace. They don’t have to feel guilt or be confronted with someone asking them to meet half way. We can both live our lives in peace. No bad blood. I know we’re both good people who just ran our course a long time ago.
