I'm genuinely wondering.
My last therapist seemed to think that friendship has a dichotomy one must put up with. Perhaps thats true. Ive had unrealistic expectations probably. I understand that they ebb and flow and that some are closer than others. And if I am honest, I need to make better or more friends or something.
But I have a friend. It's the same friend who asked me about my sexuality in a rude way. She annoys me because sometimes she talks a lot about the same issues over and over. She is also delusional and paranoid. She talks to me like I'm her counselor too and I feel used. I haven't felt like hanging out w her lately. Is it normal to dislike certain ppl who are friends? I might just need a break from her. Perhaps that's ok. Perhaps open communication is best too. I could tell her lets talk about something else. I don't have to be her counselor. I can set boundaries. I want to mention she gets weirdly angry. She has done things to me out of spite before. So I feel it's hard to set great boundaries bc I don't want her to get angry at me.
I think I'm just looking for something rich and meaningful. I have found that in people before. But at this point in my life, idk, it's coming from other things if anything at all.
