i’m deeply hurt by one of my closest and bestest friends, and no matter how much and how hard i tried to reach out to understand what’s happening, and willing to forgive and let our friendship mend, i’ve been shut out and completely walled off. it just hurts a lot and i’ve been crying so much because i treasure our friendship. most people who know about the situation told me i should just cut my feelings off and move on, but they’re not me, they’re not part of the friendship. i am. it’s like, “yeah just amputate the limb and go on with life.” but the limb isn’t theirs. it’s mine.
