this is something you shouldn’t need to fight for. not something to be upset for, to lose sleep for. but you’re here.
i truly believe that there is a certain point in any relationship, friendship or otherwise, in which it becomes ok to FIGHT. ok to stand up for the other person involved.
that point is not the beginning or intermediate stages.
when you initially become aware that you are submerged in another, you should not immediately find yourself struggling to fight the current. things should be easy in the beginning stages of any form of human comradeship.
if you feel that you are giving more, you probably are. back up, re-assess your situation and emotion. if at that point you are ok to walk away, now is probably the best time.
protect your pride, your dignity. walk.
