I have an amazing relationship with my boyfriend who brought me out of depression, and broke a friendship built on lies
This past year has been a roller coaster. I got out a terrible relationship with a neglectful partner and lost a ton of weight from all the stress. We broke it off after he ghosted me for a week after I went out to get coffee with another friend. I was called a slut, a whore, a cheater, a bitch, and I honestly didn't care anymore. I was so done with being treated as something that was available only when they thought it was right, so I finally just did something for myself and found happiness somewhere else.
This upcoming week will be my one year anniversary with my current boyfriend who cares about me like no one has before and encourages me with my college classes and music. I didn't think I could ever deserve someone as amazing as him and am so lucky to be with such a stand up guy. He is my best friend who I can laugh with for hours and have inside jokes that last weeks.
Two months ago I "broke up" with my bestfriend of 5 years. She has tried speaking to me on occasion, but I just don't feel like I need to listen to her anymore. This has ruined two other friendships as well, and neither of them seem to care that I am gone. I don't care, obviously they weren't my friends.
I have built 4 strong relationships with the people I now consider my closest friends, and have gotten closer to others who have started inviting me to actually hang out.
I have never felt so wanted and cared for in my life. I know who my friends are. I know who cares about me. I am thriving with happiness and love the way my life is going towards at this point.
Thanks to anyone who reads this. Sorry for grammar and spelling :P
