People are always quick to notice when we change but never notice what caused us to change

Me who used to be the therapist in the friend group:

[buttahfly]

When you are the backup friend, the friend that is everyone's therapist, the friend who doesn't have an actual best friend while every one else does.

Edit: 16k ❤

People don’t realize when you tell someone something like this, they will never bother you ever again🥺

That friend was probably the therapist friend and snapped bc they were sick of being the therapist. Can relate.

[charlottejsjxhcurhaudurjeh]

Whenever I want to vent in the group it’s always “this isn’t about you” or “that’s not that bad but listen to what happened to me” to the point where I’m the therapist friend who acually needs therapy

[slippinthroughdreamland]

I used to be the backup friend and the therapist. I had a ton of “friends” but then I realized that they barely ever talked to me. I had one friend that would only come to me when she was in a fight with her other friends. She would leave after everything was done, and she wouldn’t talk to me until she fought with her friends again. Now I found MUCH better friends who don’t leave me in the dark, and I’m not the backup friend anymore! 😊

I am sad- The reason? I relate to this so much-

[Theonewhomissesu]

seeing that everyone relates… we shouldn’t go thru this truly

I can relate so much to this. Most of my friends just used me for random stuff, give me their problems to deal with and just constantly talking behind my back. I’m only 13 and I’ve dealt with stuff like this, and they still expect me to be their so called “best friend”. What the hell-?

[rediscoveringiam]

This hits hard. I wish I wasn't so lonely.

[MazLvsCats]

I relate to this a lot, I’d always Comfort my best friend when she was upset and needed help, but hey ho when I’m crying, stressed or about to ball my Eyes out it’s “sorry I don’t know how to comfort people “ she says scrolling through her phone, she can comfort people and I know it. This hurts :(

[valeried]

When it's your best friend,
It hurts even worse

[miuhahh]

I hate being the backup friend. They only talk to you when their bestie is absent.

I'm going through a similar situation, I struggle because I'm not happy and told my best friend because I couldn't handle it by myself. We always insult each other but kindly, but it doesn't really contribute to my self esteem so she said she'd try to stop. Two months later, she does it more than ever, yells at me and makes me feel dumb, unuseful and childish when we're with other people, but then when we're by ourselves she's very nice and supports me and if I do suicidal comments she says there's no fucking way I'm gonna do it cuz she's not gonna allow it so I don't understand

[purplemoon_alexx]

The comment section made me realize how precious my friendship with my best friend is.. we tell each other everything and we're always here for the other

[yokul]

I have no friends either. Just keep going and you learn living with it. You will get stronger then anybody around you because you learn to solve everything alone. Wish you the best

Me being the therapist in the group: "tell me anything I'll never judge"

[akiki]

Life has taught me you can’t control someone’s loyalty, no matter how good you are to them, doesn’t mean they will treat you the same. No matter how much they mean to you, doesn’t mean they value you the same they are just blind they can’t see the light that shines within you. If your struggling remember Strong walls shake but never collapse ❤️
