One Of The Greatest Lessons That Adult Women Need To Learn
One of the greatest lessons that adult women need to learn is to meet people where they are and to stop writing friends off for being themselves. This whole “we aren’t friends because she didn’t check on me or she never reaches out first” narrative is lame. Women are out here struggling to just stay above water every second of every day, fighting their own demons. There are women out here going through divorces, abuse, major depression, financial trouble, family trouble, relationship trouble, health issues, work issues, deaths, and mental illness… and they are supposed to constantly check in on YOU to be your friend?My friendship doesn’t have requirements. It doesn’t have guidelines or quotas. As long as it’s organic, unforced, and NON-TOXIC, you will forever have my love and support.

    I don’t ask my friends to check on ME. I ask that the relationship be reciprocal. I don’t expect reciprocity 100% of the time for the reasons the poster mentions above. That said, I expect my friends also to be the person to initiate contact from time to time. If I am the only one doing that, I take a good look at why that may be so. If they are going through hard things, I am patient and keep reaching out because that is what they need. On the other side – being aware that this “friend” is and always will be someone who only takes what the friendship has to give, without investing in it – those “friends” I do not need.

Everyone is breaking up and I fully support it. Life is too short, too fragile and too important to be with someone who’s not loving you the way you need to be loved.
