Like, let me just tell you everything.
But this type of shit does happen.
But see, I think this is actually a worse situation when it's like not your closest, bestest friends in the world, but rather like...
A friend, but one that maybe you don't trust 100%.
It's not like this person's family to you.
I think that's the most complicated kind of person in this sort of situation.
Like that's usually when it gets really stressful.
No.
Next, somebody said, I love my friends, but they always wanna hang out, and I just love my alone time so much.
How do I set those boundaries without them thinking I'm rude?
I don't want them to stop inviting me places, but sometimes I just really need my alone time.
Okay, this is not personal, right?
This has nothing to do with your friends.
You love your friends.
You just also sometimes need your alone time, and perhaps your friends have more spare time than you, or they're just more extroverted than you, and so they have more energy to be hanging out more often.
Don't even feel guilty about this for a second.
You're doing nothing wrong.
There's nothing wrong here.
This is so easy.
And I'm not saying that to like degrade your feelings or to devalue your feelings or to undermine your feelings.
