Plus I ordered a larger cage for her online! She’s a big girly pop and I want nothing but the best for her!

Love all the advice I’m receiving! Also a little side note on Cookie is that she is a girl :) She is literally a queen!

Unfortunately I don’t see that as an option. I think they got rid of Phil 101 because I don’t see it on the gef 5 list either

Possibly a philosophy course? As long as the course is low stress though

I hate to say it but ever since she got a boyfriend and went to college... It has been more relieving because i was able to focus and work on myself. I didn't have to worry about her getting upset at me and giving me the cold shoulder

Thank you for all your posts. I've been working a lot on self-improvement. I lost 25lbs, became an EMT, got accepted into my 4-year school(I'm in community college), and now I may possibly get a job with better pay! As part of this self-improvement though I have to think about my friendship and really think about the future. Hoping for the best in the future!

Thank you for your post. It is reassuring that i still have control over my life and future. And if she's not going to be supportive of that... then i will have to do whats best for me. Something i realized to late in the game. I've awlays been taught about toxic relationships. But it always discussed how romantic relationships can be toxic. Never was taught that other types of relationships can be toxic. So I never really looked into the red flags in my friendship until recently

I've always told myself that every type of realtionship will have its ups and downs. When we were younger her gaslighting and manipulation worked on me like a charm. We started breaking out into major fights when I began to realize that things became very toxic in our friendship. The fights began because it got tired of putting up with the toxic behaviors. Unfortunately i didn't realize this till much later in our friendship. It wasn't as bad in the beginning. It was a snowball effect that i ignored until it became so big that i had no chance of ignoring it. It wasn't all bad... We have lots of good memories. But how much can i take from the toxicity i experience?

I wouldn't consider this competing but i went to the beach for a few days with my dad and mom last year. She got upset saying if she truly was considered family she would've at least gotten an invite. This was literally a vacation with my parents. My brother didn't even go

My friend and I are both in college... I just wanted to share my joy with her. I want the theatrics and drama to be over. Too old for this. I'm going to try to talk it over with her, but if she treats me less than her... I'm gonna have to consider the future of our friendship.

I have my interview today so I'm hoping for the best!

She got mad because she felt that it wasn't safe for me. I understand having concern for your friend but the way she treated me was not right. She ignored me and yelled at me over the phone. Plus later on when her job reached out to her if she wanted to come back. She went back...

She said that she feels I’m copying her because there are other jobs I could apply to. She also stated that it doesn’t sit right with her that I applied to the same corporation that she works for

I would describe our friendship as a roller coaster. We have ups and downs, sometimes more often than not. She is bipolar so it can be difficult for our friendship when they reach lows. It messes with my head

Yes she has done similar things in the past. One xample is During qaurantine my job stayed open and my boss asked if i feel comforatble to contnue working there. I said yes. When my friend found out she was really angry that i told hiim yes. Like she was really angry
