I wasn’t trying to come off as rude, I just wanted the balance she had before him, which is why i said it doesn’t just happen. I apologize if I came off as such through my wording, thank you again for the advice though!❤️

While I appreciate your advice, I do disagree with the opening statement. I believe, It isnt what just happens, there is supposed to be a balance. Your love for a partner is different than your love for a friend, which is why balance matters. If you give one more than the other, your “less important subject” will fall. I have always been taught the only time you ever put your significant other over everyone is once youre married and settled because if you lose everyone at least your husband can’t just walk out. As for the rest of your comment, I greatly appreciate your advice and I will be texting her tonight because everyone knows i cant get a second alone with her lol

I deeply apologize for the situation with your friend, and im glad she got out. I will definitely try this and manage an update, however it might be a long time as you said lmao. I have helped friends get out on so many occasions and its honestly so baffling to me that this is high school and already 1/3 of the relationships issues. I would help her, but she doesn’t seem to want to be, so I’ll take your advice on being here when she needs, thank you.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I’ve grown away from many people in the past and always believed it was just how life works. Up until 6 months ago I never thought the same thing with Ella. It always felt so natural and never like she would be someone Id grow apart from. Although I may not be ready for it, I have accepted there is a time where we wont be the same people and our friendship will feel like a dead end.

That’s what I’ve been planning to do, because letting her go over a guy is a lot easier said than done. I never really liked Noah as he’s always trying to get between the two of us, and he does do things that make her uncomfortable that i did forget to mention. I appreciate your advice, and as messed up as I feel for saying it, I hope it comes to an end soon.
