Live Your Life As You See Fit

My new motto, exactly.

I have made a new promise to myself this year. I will stop going out of my way to support people. I will no longer go out of my way to provide help. Love, for me, is to live and let live. I care but will not care that much.

It is your life.

Do whatever you want to do.

I love you and I support you in whatever that you want to do.

Be happy. Be miserable. Be content. Be whatever.

I love you anyway.

Even if I don't, do not let it affect the way you live your life.

We are not bound to each other.

You can choose to love me or not to love me.

I can choose to love you or not to love you.

I am 27 years old. Most of my friends are older than me. Practically adults. I believe that adults are capable of making their own decisions. Good decisions. Bad decisions. Decisions of completely no consequences. Do it. If that is your choice, great. Fine. Do it.

It does not matter how much I care about you. At the end of the day, your decision does not affect how I live my life. Therefore, my decisions should also not affect your life.

I have great friends and family members. Supportive. Caring. Loving. Yet our lives are generally independent of each other. I love company and a trustworthy circle of friends. However, I am also a person who values isolation, contemplation and respectful distance.

If we cannot be healthy and toxic-free around each other, please maintain a respectful distance.

If you cannot speak to me in a compassionate manner, please maintain a respectful distance.

If you find that I am no longer a desirable friend but find it hard to tell me, please maintain a respectful distance.

Nobody forces you to be around me and nobody can force me to be around you.

We can text each other once in a while. Perhaps call. And occasional meals sound great.

What I want is for myself is to stop pretending that I am the person you think or thought you know.

We may have changed so much, we no longer have anything in common. You know what, that's fine.

We have nothing to talk about. That's fine, too.

Please. No more of this enforced friendships.

Do whatever you want to do.

I hope that you are happy.

If you are not, I hope you find your days manageable.

Love and familiarity do not last forever.

Things change. Things evolve. People come and go in our lives.

To wake up and stop caring about the person I used to be close too - that is unexpected but somewhat natural.

My personality evolves every single day. And yours should, too.

Consider your choices.

Make decisions.

Breathe.

And live your life as you see fit.

I wish you all the best.
