I recently went through a very bad break up with a friend of mine. She was a close friend and I really loved her. We were like BFFs sharing clothes, bags and anything else that would fit and if it's new that means she has one and so do I. Lol. It was a beautiful friendship and we shared so much and as good friends do supported each other through thick and thin. Needless to say I was devastated at the break up but sometimes you just have to believe people when they show you their true colours and move on. And that's what I did. Painfully so.
Now I would like to know ....what's the protocol? In my anger I've blocked her from WhatsApp and Facebook. She is still on my Twitter and Instagram though so that didn't make sense. Is it not harsh doing that though ? Do you have to analyse the severity and trauma of the break up to know which level of blocking you actually do? Or is it the norm to just block all round? Then again, do you want someone who you broke up with still looking into your life ? Seeing your holiday pictures and your life in general ? Or does it matter?
One of my longest and dearest friends told me once ..."Angel never burn bridges. You might be mad now but one year from now you would have calmed down." That always stuck to me cause I am such a passionate person and tend to rant and rave a wee bit....so I saw value in that statement. But what if you don't ever see a future with that person in it? What if your life is better without them ? What if they are dragging you down? There's a lot of what ifs which no one could answer except you. So in the same breath I will also have to decide on the protocol for my break up. Some decisions are not easy and that's what makes us adults...The ability to make tough decisions to better our future. Some friendships are toxic and it might make you feel good at the beginning but in the end all you left with are bitter sweet memories. That is the reason why i don't make everyone i meet my friend. I am so selective it's almost a curse. I just have this ability to guard my heart very closely. Friendship is also a commitment to someone that you will be there for them through the good and wiping tears through the bad. It means investing your time and money making a friendship grow and watching each other grow through the different stages of life. That is a huge commitment and i don't have the time to make that promise to everyone i meet. It's hard enough making time to exercise. So if i call you my friend. You better believe it means something. It's not just a term i use loosely cause we all have a name. Lol.
