The people who you thought would be there for you when it counted are not always going to be there. Sometimes because they quite literally cannot be there, other times because they just don’t want to (anymore).

The same will go for you – you’re not always going to (want to) be there for people who need you too. Some of your friends will be more successful than you. And you will be more successful than some of your friends. And this will change over time depending on everyone’s life situation, path, and sheer dumb luck. You will feel like people you’ve known for years don’t know you at all anymore (and you don’t know them either).

You will also feel like people you’ve met for five minutes just “get you.” And it’ll be a strange, complex feeling you’re not quite sure how to handle all the time. You’re not always going to like the people your friends are dating, building relationships with, and even marrying.

They might feel the same way about the people you’re with too. Deal with it. You will eventually realize that some of your friendships were one-sided. It’s heartbreaking but any kind of love has to be a two-way street for it to work. Let go of these people and feel free.

If someone keeps telling you they’re “too busy,” eventually you have to take this as a sign that they’re too busy for you. I'm in school, running on four hours of sleep and barely any weekends for myself and being a single mother. The friends who mattered made time for me, and I did for them. “Being busy” is legitimate until it’s not anymore, and you’ll know when it’s not.

You’re not going to feel as close to certain people as you once did. You might still love them and even enjoy their company. But you won’t be as close as you once were and that's okay.

Some friendships just die. That’s the truth of it. Don’t try to fight it. Don’t let it make you angry. Don’t blame yourself or the other person or circumstance or anything else. Accept it for what it is.

You need to make friends with yourself. It’s corny and it’s cliché but it’s also the truth. Because there will be certain times in your life that it’ll feel like you’re all you’ve got. And when those times come, you have to be enough to get by.

At the end of the day if you feel like your friendship is ending don't talk about it to other people because it only makes the situation worse when it gets back that friend that you have a problem with.

Repost from what @RavishingReigns said in her rant book.

Sorry I'm normally not like this but I'm pissed off that I had to find out from several friends that the girl who is supposed to be my sister had a lot of negative things to say about me

Sorry I'm normally not like this but I'm pissed off that I had to find out from several friends that the girl who is supposed to be my sister had a lot of negative things to say about me. I don't play that shit and I definitely had to tell her about herself. So I guess this was my little rant.
