She told me it's not black and white.
Though... to be honsent I do have my doubts with what my therapist said. Since I don't hear from my friend at all so far this week.
And the rhythm of how we message each other has slow down dramatically, especailly when we did the LIVE art class.
So...I'm abit meh... to my therapist. Not sure.

Yes that’s true about the split in friendships, not all friendships are the same. But I think if a friendship isn’t fulfilling you, then it’s maybe time to rethink. You don’t have to cut Kate out of your life, just maybe spend less time and energy on her and spend more time working on yourself, possibly meeting new people.
You’re definitely not alone with social phobia, have a look in the anxiety forums down the forum list.
