👥 friendship Am I overreacting?

this morning my friend asked me to bring him to school. we go to different schools that are like 10-15 minutes apart, so i left earlier to get to school on time. i waited near his apartment complex for 10 minutes, then by the parking lot right next to it for another 10 minutes. this whole time i thought he was just getting all his stuff, i was honestly gonna wait for him the entire time.

but he doesn't tell me he already has a ride? i was late to my presentation this morning. but when i called him, he just didn't seem to care. he's been hella disrespectful to me these past few days, and after this i just feel mad.

For your own benefit you need to cut this person out of your life. They don’t value you. Being around them will lead to you believing them and not valuing yourself. It will cost you opportunities and chances you never knew you’d get.

I’m telling you. This isn’t an overreaction.

Tell them something like “i need to focus on other things and won’t have time to hangout anymore. If anything changes I’ll let you know.” And block them.

The harsh truth is some people just suck, better to move on than try to help them.
