I have no remorse. Life got better without them.
It ranges from (close) friends, colleagues, and even family.
I truly value my peace of mind. I refuse to talk to people (especially men) who don't bring value or serve purpose in my life.
Granted, I'm still healing, a little sad, and processing this "break up". These were people I've known for atleast one year. I miss them, but I know it's for the best that we no longer stay in touch.
People who don't understand would see this as me being anti-social, or that I'm manic and depressed. The truth is, I don't require a big circle; just people that mutually enjoy eachother's company.
When I stopped being around these people, I started to become "myself " again. I appreciate the ones that stayed, and add value to my life.
I'm the same. This year I cut off a male "friend" who wouldn't stop flirting with me and was making me uncomfortable. I also cut off a female friend who moved far away and barely kept in touch. She's not a bad person. I think it was just a case of "out of sight, out of mind" but every time I reached out to her and she didn't respond, it hurt. In the end, I decided the healthiest thing for both of us was to just stop reaching out.
