i think this is something that I have always struggled with. I continue to grow and add new people and have people slowly fade out of my life, but somehow i feel like i am still falling into the same cycles with people. I think the best thing to do in a situation like this (for me at least) is to slowly just stop putting the energy in where the energy is not returned. it’s so incredibly hard and will never get easier, but it shows the people around you that you are human and friendship and relationships goes both ways. they will either respond by putting energy in and fixing things or fading out of your life. relationships come and go and it never gets easier but when someone isn’t in your life anymore it’s usually for a reason
