It might also help to take this as an opportunity to focus on yourself more, and feel good that you've done something good for yourself. I'm trying to embrace the increased independence and celebrate the fact that, while of course there's the whole crappy losing a friend part, cutting out that negativity and toxicity is technically positive progress. You also might want to take it as an opportunity to socialize more and try to seek out some new (better) friends now that the attention and time you've spent with her is free.

Good luck with things. [/QUOTE]

This is such a good idea. I'd love a new friend or two...just need to find them.
