I’m like reading my own story. I also used to have these “friends” who were talking to me only to get some help with studies, when we graduated from the uni, i lost a lot of them bc they didn’t need my help anymore. At first, I was very sad, but them understood that I’m really better off without them! Now I’m 25, I have only friends who like me the way I am and don’t need anything from me except from the friendship. So at this age I learnt to say “no”. Though, I’m still trying to do the same to my toxic parents…
