Please be careful who you consider a friend: This whole "we aren't friends because he/she didn't check on me" or "he/she didn't support me" or he/she "never reaches out first" narrative is terrible.

People are out here struggling to just stay above water every second of every day, fighting their own battles. There are people out here going through divorces, abuse, major depression, financial trouble, family trouble, relationship trouble, health issues, work issues, deaths, drug addiction and mental illness... and they are supposed to constantly check in on YOU in order to be your friend?

My friendship doesn't have requirements.
My friendship doesn't have contingencies.
My friendship doesn't have obligations.

You don't have to call every day. It doesn't have guidelines or quotas. As long as it's organic, unforced, and NON-TOXIC, you will forever have my love and support.

Repost with a pic of you if being your friend doesn't have conditions attached! You don't know what people are going through. 💪🏾
