Awfully Good

Am I a bad friend?

Just because I don’t sympathize for you, and don’t run to your aid every time you think your world is crashing before your eyes? If you need me to listen, I’m there. Don’t hesitate, no judgement. I used to think this was enough, but apparently it isn’t. No, I’ll be straight up. When people look at you with sadness in their eyes and pity you because of what you’ve been through, you can count me out. You don’t deserve pity, you deserve confidence. You need to be able to overcome your own obstacles or you’ll never be able to grow.

People overlook me and believe I have no problems, no issues or that I don’t/won’t understand. When in reality I do, probably better than everyone else does. I was there, I know. But the difference between you and me is that I don’t need to announce my problems to the world, I don’t need to be saved. You’ll soon begin to realize that what everyone else has to say doesn’t matter. I’ve learned to deal with my issues, and I know that you can too. There won’t always be somebody there to pick you up, you have to learn to put yourself back together.

I have confidence in you. I’ll believe in you, even when you don’t believe in yourself.
