Swings and Roundabouts

At first all my friends in Nottingham disowning me really fucking hurt. But now I’m starting to feel kinda happy. For one I have a lot more money from staying in all the time! But I know I’ll always have my oldest friend in Manchester, we’ve been friends since we were like 14 and have been through a lot together.

To be honest I would rather have 1 really really great friend, than like 20 friends who are only around when they agree with what you’re doing or saying. In my eyes friendship isn’t about bailing as soon as one of your friend’s actions aren’t what you agree with or are causing problems with other friends. You support them through everything, whether you agree or not.

There’s nothing wrong with telling them you don’t agree and you think they’re making a mistake, you don’t need to follow them or copy them to be their friend, just be there when it comes crumbling down around them and comfort and support without the “I told you so” speech.

No one here really seems capable of being that mature or reasonable, so goodbye, farewell, it’s time to depart this city and move onto the next. I’m not running away, I’m just done fighting and feeling uncomfortable in Nottingham. I need a fresh start, whether I make loads of friends there, I don’t really mind, I know I can survive with 1 brilliant friend by my side.
