Hawak Kamay

What's sad about some friendships is that after you think you know someone, you really don't. They stab you in the back with words even when you're doing them such a huge favor that costs you more than you can afford. And the more you try to act more reasonable, the more you try and be friendly, the more you try and put everything behind you, the more they ignore you. The more they think you're the one being stuck up because you're not dealing with the problem between you and that person.

I dunno. Maybe I'm generalizing a bit too much. But I can't help it. It's happened to me too many times. I'm tired of trying to salvage one-way friendships.

But even if you need any more favors, even if you need help, even if you need me to do something for you... I'll try. Why? Because I have the responsibility of living up to my promise to you: I'll always try to be there for you when you need me. But here's the thing: don't expect me to be coming to you for anything at all... because right now, I don't need the things that you're offering me. I don't need the drama, I don't need the bullsh*t. Sad to say, but I don't need you anymore.
