I was once friends with a few people and we ended up growing a true friendship, so I thought.

One friend called herself throwing me under the bus to her cousin and I didn’t do anything wrong, but I said something wrong and called the man my “Bitch”, as in my homie/friend. After that, the trust was gone and so was the friendship for me.

The second friend was male who invited me over to another friends house who was his friend, whom I had also known as well. My friend never stated how he felt about me, but I guess he let his friend know by going upside his head hit his friend with a baseball bat, not because of me, but egos.

The third friend, 20 plus years said something hurtful which was I embarrass her. Now I just sat here and watched your girlfriend pull her whole vagina out at a public bar, but I embarrass you. I didn’t quite know how to take that, so I thought about it, prayed about it and came up with the final decision that it was best for us to continue to go our separate ways.

My point is are friends really who they say they are? Are they really jealous of you and who you are? Do they find you interesting and don’t know how to say it? Are they only friends with you because of the clout and fame surrounded by you?

I have learned that it is not wrong to be alone, but I do believe that everyone needs someone to talk to. I have also learned that friends are here for reasons and seasons, they come and go, not everyone is here to be permanently in your life and for those that are no longer here with me, it’s their loss.

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.
