Ever feel like cutting your friends off?

[HoloGraphic]

Just cleaned up my FB. 400 people gone and more than half the rest can go too.
After two of my closest 'frenemies' the rest was easy.

I cut off my loser friends when I went to college

I moved back home afterward. Not my hometown but, to Philly, which is the nearest major city to my hometown. I think they felt disrespected that I was back in the area but, I still wasn't fukkin with them. Didn't care. I'm moving right back out in another few months. Either back to D.C. or to the West Coast. If I don't see them again in life, it won't bother me. I'm about positivity and progression. If you wanna be successful in life, your circle needs to consist of other successful people or people who have a successful mentality and are in the process of bettering themselves. Point blank. When I really do accomplish all of my goals, I don't want none of those nikkas thinking they got a pipeline to me. So it was bushes. I don't want to be friends with nikkas still on the block or nikkas doing drugs or nikkas in jail or 1 degree of separation from nikkas in jail. Nah. I cut all them nikkas off, and my life starting going right. Funny how that goes

Lost one for good when he essentially threatened to fight me over us not being friends anymore.

Yup, I don't have social media. Just stop messaging back and they get the point

I was tight with 9 nikkas growing up.

Now it's only 1

Yeh man it happens. Fell back from a lot of ppl the two years. You'll find that people will age but won't necessarily grow up.

I could never switch up on my guys. We done did too much dirt for another .

However if one of your friends is "holding you back" so to speak, you gotta communicate that. If they still not trying to be about shyt, drop em and KIM. Sometimes it's that simple.

exactly.... i cut off all my social media like 2 years ago... i would go on there and see them arguing about so and so owe them money or talk about other friends personal life and i was like time for me to say good bye and do me and worry about my own problems...

it is part of life. cut them off. when i was younger i had so many "friends" i couldnt remember half of their names. im now 27 and have at the MOST 10 friends and I only see 2 of them regularly. when i was young i thought it was so lame if u didnt have a bucket of friends. now i couldnt even fathom the thought of having more than 10 friends who are actual friends. and my friends range from the age of 22 all the way to 47. my current best friend is a 47 year old cuban who guides me through life and wants me to be successful. i thank god he's my friend. he's 47, single, and a rolling stone and treats me like the son he never had. amazing friend that guy is.

Yeah I did today decided to go to church honestly, I know alot of the coli are anti religion but i feel for me it's the best move for the hand I was dealt. Plus I feel church kinda simplifies things.

That street life is cool but it's cutthroat and grimy.

Dudes still trying to relive their chilhood I'm good, all that drinking just makes me fat and sick.


Decided to make a permanent change today. Becoming a better man.

...that freedom

Its part of life.... Like the saying goes if a man lives his life at 40 like he did when he was 20 he wasted 20 years of his life.... The older you get the less hesitant you will be in calling someone a friend.... Priorities change when you truly come into your own.... That only comes from tons of self evaluation and a shytload of mistakes... That's why most people are devastated when their marriages and relationships don't work out ....you will find your spouse will become your best friend.....most people are happy not growing and really living up to their full potential...

My circle got so small that it's a .






I realized my so-called friends didn't actually respect or like me unless I stayed asleep and kept my real thoughts and feelings to myself
Later on, I realized my ex felt the same about me

Spoiler

In reality, I didn't cut them off; I just decided to spend more of my time with people on the same wave.

I feel like I'm growing up and becoming a different person in another phase of my life and I can't fully change because I have to keep my old self around to satisfy my friends.

I've shared all the emotions you expressed in the OP as I became more and more in tune with myself and gained spiritual growth.

It's essentially what the law of attraction really is. You attract what you are. Since your friends seem to be more or less stuck in their same habits you'll naturally feel a resistance within yourself. You must allow your old self to simply die. That includes relationships that no longer suit your newer self. Being around these people while they are still in this phase of their lives will only bring you suffering. Who cares if they say you've changed and your wack for being different, you HAVE changed, you know this, so appreciate the compliment.

There are billions of other beings out here and many will share more suitable perspectives. Allow the universe to bring you towards those people.
