When I was friends with [ I was going through the hardest time of my life, and I was really needy for friendship/aprovel. I think [ saw that a mile away and was able to manipulate me into defending [gender pronoun], and doing what [gender pronoun] wanted. Then when I was no longer useful to [, that person was simply able to pick a fight with me and cast me aside.
Do I feel stupid? yeah, cuz I was warned. The trouble is the people who tried to warn me themselves aren't the best people, so I didn't believe them. I truly believed [ was my friend and that I was not being prayed upon. (and when I say prayed upon I do not mean sexually, rather psychologically). I ignored common sense because it was the "devil" trying to tell me. I guess the pain of [ using and making a fool out of me aughta teach me to listen next time.
It hurts and I still miss [, but life will eventually go on.
Thank you to everyone who gave me support and advice regarding this matter.

I can understand this. I have recently cut off a "friend" who just used me. I have helped her through a premature baby, abusive boyfriends, bankruptcy, and so on. I have given her money knowing that as much as she promised she would pay me back I would never see it again. I have been a help and support and she has never been there for me. When I had just gotten released from the ER for being suicidal (and on my birthday no less) she told me that if I did not become more positive then I was no longer her friend. Then she had the audacity to question why I blocked her on facebook, her emails go directly to the delete file, her text messages go unanswered ... I was warned too, by my husband who I trust but I did not listen.
I was actually going to write a post about dealing with "friends" who just use you. It hurts that I had to cut her out but it is best for my sanity.
