Lost friendships. I don't like them anymore because they don't even add me on FB. Yet I see their names there. I want to block them but I'm still giving them time to rethink. It's kind of frustrating on my part because I keep thinking, they'd change their minds.

I kind of forgotten about her already... but she occasionally pops up in our FB group... reminding me of her and how she tried to ruin my life. If I block her, I would still read my classmates' replies to her comments. What should I do?

it's insecurity bunny. you gotta be ok with people not liking you.

Maybe. She's a really good friend back in high school. I still have so many good memories of her. I'm even secretly wishing that she'd accept my friend request some time in the future. I think things started to go wrong when she sent me a love letter anonymously. I didn't respond as I'm your ordinary awkward and nerdy Virgo guy. After that time, she started doing things to ruin my life. She's still funny though. I still laugh at her comments on FB yet it also bothers me whenever I remember that she hasn't accepted my friend request. I get insecure every time I remember that.

Well it's no denying she's still somewhere NEAR your life. As Long as you don't make her PART of your life, it'll be easy to disregard her.

If you don't want to block em, reduce FB time.
Do what you gotta do to get this individual off your mind.

That's what I do now. But too bad, she frequents our high school batch group. I don't log on FB as often as before and every time I open my high school batch group, I am bothered.

It's because you got into law. This happens with all my lawyer friends.

You mean, they got insecure?

lol why do you care, bunny?

i didnt know lawyers care so much.

maybe it's the "TYPE" of lawyer.

there are many avenues of law.

She's very funny and we were really good friends back then. We have so many memories spent together. She was like my first love. 😢

hm it might be that you are way more INVESTED in her than she is to you.

some folks are like that. They have OTHER people in their lives that they want to invest in more, so they forget about you because you just don't fit in their world anymore, even if it's platonic/friendship and no romance.

don't take it to heart.

you should love yourself more because of it, because OTHER people dont define you.

it's life's lessons. not everyone is gonna like you, and that's OK.

Yes, I'm Libra dominant. I'm Libra Venus and Mercury. I like people. I like to surround myself with people I like.

Lol. But is it alright to reminisce my memories with her? I can still remember those days. Those were some of the best memories I've had. >_

things change, people change, you meet new people all the time. Live life like you're gonna die tomorrow so you'll make the best of it. allow yourself to meet someone new and try hanging out with them and experience them.

I can attest to the lawyer friends. Once they start getting into law, I start getting wary of them. The knowledge they have can possibly make or break you. Besides they become more cynical and cautious after they start studying law too.
