Hey guys, so we've talked about a lot of things so far, but I wanted to shed light on the topic of friendships because this generation, especially, seems to have the biggest issue of distinguishing between real and fake friends.
So no shade, but I guess it would only make sense to write about my own experiences.
Well, throughout high school I never really had any friend issues, but it wasn't until I came to college that drama started to come into my life. What I am about to explain, i'm sure we all have either experienced or can relate to:
The manipulative/selfish/dramatic friend: Y'all know what i'm talking about! The friend that makes everything about them, they cry about everything, and God forbid one thing in their life goes wrong they damn near want to tattoo the problem on their forehead just to receive some sympathy?! The best way to deal with these kinds of friends is honestly through acknowledgement. People like this, in my opinion, don't even know they are really like this. You have to be real with your friends. That means correcting your friends when they coming incorrect! Being a friend means teaching each other how to be better people.
The low-key jealous/negative friend: I kid you not I had a friend who's life was together, she went to a better school, lived in a nice apartment, she wasn't ugly, but on my 20th birthday this girl got drunk and she did everything in her power to try to embarrass me. I was like whaaaaaattttttt?! You never know what people may be jealous. To me, I didn't think I had anything to be jealous or envious of, but I did and I still do. Her negativity was pretty annoying in itself, but with this friend you have to just cut them off, there is no reviving of this friendship.
Last, but not least..The hoe friend: These are the worst kind of friends. These friends are the ones who formed the phrase "birds of a feather flock together"<-----this is a lie (at least in my situation)
These are also the friends that come with drama or end up being drama. My own personal experiences with these kinds of friends were terrible. Hoe friends are only loyal to the things that they do. Stay away from the hoes cause they are the nicest people. BUT, they are the only people that when you hear numerous amounts of negative stories about them BELIEVE it. If I listened to all the people who warned me about those girls, I wouldn't have dealt with half the drama that I did this year.
Being a real friend means exactly that, being real. Correct your friends, defend your friends, help your friends, teach your friends, have fun with your friends, and support your friends!!!!!!!
