Best Friend - When to let it go

Hello! It been a while since I posted a blog!

A good friend of mine recently lost a friend which she considered to be quite close to and this is why I decided to write this list based on personal experienece and the people around me.

1. When they cause you stress or they tell you that you cause them stress. - a friendship is meant to share the stresses. It's just not worth prusuing if that is the case.

2. When they attack your personality or morals. - I am not talking about disagreements on the death penalty. but rather, like in this recent case, calling your personality fake solely based on how you wish to face the world, in this case calling an optimist fake. Please keep in mind this is not some child saying rude things to each other, but a legal adult, calling my friend fake just because their views and apprach to life is different. This shows that my friend's friend has no interest in actually getting to know my friend and why she thinks the way she does.

3. When they show no interest in getting to understand the way you think - using the death penalty as an example, I feel that in a healthy relationship it is ok to have different opionions on a subject, but being willing and open to discussing the reasoning for the opinion is very important. Your opionion is not the only correct one.

4. when there is jealousy in the relationship. - Jealousy is unhealthy, I am not talking about "I am so jealous that your parents brought you a car!" But true deep rooted jealousy, such as thoughts suchs as "I hate it that you always do well in everything, while I always get the short end of the stick." It is fine to wish that you have something that you don't have, but when it turns to resentment of the other person it is no healthy.

I think I will stop here for today and hopefully continue another day, I will be continuing the lost blog series soon!

Side note: Who else is in love with Vixx's comeback? Just when I thought they couldn't beat chained up... they come to prove me wrong! 

Side side note: I editted Hyuk teaser image to look more like a painting:

A true friend never gets jealous. A true friend tells it like it is. A true friend never degrades you. A true friend lifts you up. A true friend is always there for you. A true friend loves you just the way you are; flaws and all. A true friend is closer to you than your own sibling. A true friend is trusted 100%. A true friend laughs and cries with you. Even if you're many miles away, a true friend is still there for you. But remember, as a true friend is to you, you be the same for them. That's true friendship.
