After a painful break up with a long-term boyfriend, my two "best
friends" took to spending more time with him than me and putting me in
awkward and emotionally painful situations by inviting us both to
social events without informing me.
Their excuses:
"We feel bad for him! He didn't really have anyone to hang out with after you broke up."
One reason I broke up with him was to encourage him to rebuild his OWN
interests and circle of friends rather than continue to feed off mine.
Guess that isn't happening, huh?
"We spend equal amounts of time with both of you."
Then why do I hear talk about the many movies you've seen and places
you\'ve gone with him when it\'s been months since I last saw you?
"If we told you we had invited him, you wouldn't have come."
Damn straight! Being in the same room as him causes me emotional
distress. I wouldn't knowingly put myself in that situation and being
my friends, neither should you.
"You're still our best friend."
Then why do you continually neglect my feelings and wishes? Some best friends.
I want you to STOP surprising me with his presence at your parties. I
want you to STOP considering his feelings before mine. I want you to
STOP spending more time with him than me. I just want you to STOP
hanging out with him all together!
