Removing a toxic person from your life

I had to do a hard thing. I hated the fact that I had to do this,but the person left me no choice but to before they could hurt me again.

Don't let someone say lies about you, don't let someone keep you from what you need to focus on, don't let anyone control you. Nobody is worth your tears. Yes we cry and then we move on.  Moving on is the important thing to do because if you don't move on,you'll never grow.

Life likes to teach hard lessons and I never thought I would have to learn this one. I figured if I did, I'd learn it after a breakup with my first serious boyfriend.

I realize its been 2 years since my last post,but I felt like I needed to get this off my chest. Honestly I felt like a huge jerk five minutes after I removed them from my life. I felt like an even bigger jerk after they sent me a message apologizing and asking to be friends again and I said I accepted their apology, forgave them and am moving on, not being friends with them anymore. After about a couple hours though, I felt this huge weight lifted off my shoulders, almost like the stress of having to deal with that person was getting too heavy and I was starting to crumble. I am a nice person, maybe too nice sometimes,but I will not be played with like a toy that you only play with when you need it. I keep secrets, I don't tell if you don't want me too unless you're thinking about something dangerous like suicide. I'm still struggling a little after the while blowup and I don''t get over it just like that, like the person wanted me to the first time they did something. I mean would you get over it just like that if you found out one of your closest friends was saying untrue things behind your back because you made them mad over a miscommunication? regardless, we got over that, we moved on, then more drama happened,they got mad again and I got really stressed and mad as well. I was getting to the point where I would've been perfectly fine if the world ended so I wouldn't be so sad and stressed out.  Don't let anybody make you feel this way, even over something so stupid that the smallest thing brings out who they truly are as a person.

That's it. this is the most depressing thing I've written yet, but here it is. have a goodnight everybody.
