friends help: I have a friend who treats me horribly but I stick to her because I like her family and I have no relationship with my own family. - Help.com

I have a friend who treats me horribly but I stick to her because I like her family and I have no relationship with my own family.

Also, I am connected to everyone I know through her. She continues to degrade me on a daily basis and though she always makes me feel miserable, I cannot let her go. What should I do?

She is 21 and I’m 22. I know it sounds like we’re too old for this but this has been a life long problem for me.

Break away from her. You don’t need someone who makes you feel so bad. Find friends apart from her, and be your own person. And, maybe, you could tell her how she makes you feel. Some people are cruel and say mean things without realising it. I hope you find the courage to take whatever path is necessary. Good luck!

She is in a habit of treating you like this, and your in the habit of accepting it. I’t really is time to move on. As you get older you will come to these conclusions easier. Energy Vampire is the name I give to people that make me unhappy to be around. Be brave make the break. She might even agree that your friendship is no good for either of you.
