Don't let me go

Dear friend,
I know you want someone to confide in and you think I'm that person but I'm not. You say I'm a terrible listener and perhaps you're right: perhaps I am all those things (i.e. selfish, rude, whiny) and if I bother you so much wy try? I can't always keep running back to you at your beck and call and you're right: I can't walk on eggshells either. If you feel left out I can't always include you. If you feel left out DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT YOURSELF! Come on. We're friends, yes. But am I absolutely devoted to you? No. I have a life. If you feel like you don't get one. But I can't live vicariously through you. And I also can't give up mine to make you feel like you have one. so please-- we don't have to be best friends, i don't even really want that. I just want to be on good terms. Find someone else to spout youru problems too. That person is not me.

if you're in an abusive friendship (just as reputable as abusive relationships, and entirely as relevant) leave comments!
