I don't know if this is looking for advice, so much as...it just amazes me sometimes. I ended friendships with people who were unhealthy for me. They post things about people walking out of their lives, letting them go because they didn't appreciate them. And so on. Knowing I will probably see it.
And these people took advantage of me, were fake to me, backstabbed me, and actually treated me really horrible and let me down in a devastating way. But they are out there acting like they are the victim. I just sit here like...I hope someday people will know the truth. I had gone out of my way for them. Spent a lot of money on them. Helping them as much as possible. They defended and supported someone who literally abused me mentally and emotionally to the point I'm still dealing with medical problems and mental health problems but they see no error or wrong in what they've done. They didn't even want to hear my side of it. When I tried to show them conversations the one just said, "I don't see how this is toxic, there is no real context." And I showed others who saw it immediately and were like WOW oh my god. They just wanted me to do more things for them. I mean the lead message was "I hope you're doing okay..." Then "By the way, do you do this because I need..."
But I am a horrible person because I didn't appreciate them and walked away? Do people really not understand that doing this, to anyone, not even just me, is not okay? I have given up on expecting any justice or whatever for me or anyone in these situations. They are what they are. I get continuously bullied and blasted all the time by people in the past who claimed to love me and care about me, and have learned to mostly shrug it off and not react. I have to always pretend this isn't happening.
Some people don't seem to understand, they are the reason that their friend has walked away. No one ever wants to be accountable.
