I dont need a friend to help with homework, Ill find a tutoring center.

I dont need a friend to give me advice, Im probably better off seeking professional advice.

I am so so happy, and in a great place.

I am attending university full-time, working on my career, and have so much free time to myself.

You may wonder what I do during my free time now that I have no friends.

I can definitely tell you that my free time feels more relaxing, and definitely is way cheaper.

I have more me time.

It gets tiring being the tissue box after a while.

You cant pour from an empty cup.

I save more money.

I remember when I had friends, I would see them every weekend.

Our usual routine was to go out to eat, maybe see a movie, and/or go to thebar.

A typical night could have cost me about $20-50.

Its not just the monetary value you spent, but the time.

That time could have been put to more useful things like working or working towards a goal.

I dont need to seek approval from others, I am my own biggest resource now.

Honestly, you dont need that at all.

If you cant lean on yourself, thats a problem.

I understand sometimes we may need some help here and there.

I think that results in being too occupied in being there for others.

It results in a vicious cycle that makes you always be in a position of need.
