My friend had been super depressed about not having a boyfriend for the longest time. She was all, "Woe is me~ I'm not good enough for anyone~" and no matter what I told her, she was just sad. Finally, a little over a month ago, she did get a boyfriend, and now it's like her life has been turned around. She is all cheerful and happy. Yay.
Really, I'm so happy for her. I think it's great that she found someone, and I like the guy- he's sweet and seems cool enough. It's good to see her happy.
But now, she has lost her mind. She has no priorities. It's just, BOYFRIEND. She lives like 30 seconds away from me, but I haven't seen her or spent time with her since the boyfriend. When were still in school, since we were seniors we were able to leave early after graduation practice (this was of course the last week of school, and yes it's a weird concept but whatever). We went to McDonalds or some other such place everyday for lunch, but the whole time, she is just thinking about her boyfriend (he was a junior so he was still in school), wondering when they could get together as soon as he was allowed.
After school let out, I had practically no word from her, and whenever I passed her house (same neighborhood), her car was gone. I knew she was out with him, because (as lame as this will sound) he updated his facebook status, "I had fun spending time with my girl today" and even adds "can't wait to see her tomorrow." So yeah, they spend plenty of time together.
Yesterday was my birthday, and she came over- the first time I saw her since school let out. However, the entire day (and I do mean the entire day: while we were at my house, while we were at the mall, while we were out to eat, while we were in the car, while we were eating cake, while I was opening presents), she was texting him. I don't know about you, but I think it's rude to just be on your phone texting all day while you're at someone's house/spending time with someone, especially on their birthday. I can understand a message every now and then, but they were having an ongoing conversation... she even said she had to empty her in box multiple times.
But I talked to her about this. The day before my birthday I told her I felt left out, that all she did was hang out with her boyfriend. I told her I was happy for her, but that it wasn't fair for her to just leave me like that. She said she'd try not to do it anymore, but a heck of a lot of good that did....
She is going her own separate way for college in 2 months. I probably won't see her very much at all for the rest of my life, and at this rate, it doesn't seem like I'll hear much from her either. Is time to move on, or is it worth fighting for? We've been friends since 6th grade... it's weird that it has come to this. It just doesn't seem like she cares anymore. She's been super eager to get out of this town, without a second thought. But now that she has a boyfriend, only now is she thinking a little bit. But everything else is disregarded... family, friends, connections, everything.
So yeah, what do you think?
