Great thread, bizi!!

I have made a commitment to myself to rid myself of toxic people. There is a friend who is always negative, and frankly, seems unappreciative of all the time and energy I spent practically being her counselor (which is unhealthy as is).

She gave me the silent treatment once in the past for a month and a half and did not even tell me what was wrong, didn't respond to my texts, just to find out she twisted something around. This person always plays victim and has problems with people. After seeing her, giving her daughter a gift, all of the sudden she has gone silent again, and I can tell it's a manipulation/control tactic. To make a long story short, I've had enough. I am not reaching out. This is unhealthy for me, I'm a loyal friend who does not deserve to be treated this way.

Therefore, my self-care project is freeing myself from toxic relationships and spending more time with people who do care, even if that means less friends for now.
