Lines You Don’t Cross

I’m definitely not the right person to write a manual about friendships as I’ve had my fair share of friendship dramas. There are, however, several unwritten rules that are simply common knowledge. No one that crosses these lines should expect friendships to remain the same.

• You don’t choose a boy/girl over a best friend.
• You don’t let a hookup destroy a friendship.
• You don’t trash talk people you consider to be your best friends.
• You don’t straight up lie to your friends’ faces.
• You don’t stab people in the back and expect everything to remain the same.
• You don’t play the victim when you are the instigator of every incident that has lost you a friend.

I’m not articulating this very well, but I guess a more succinct summation of the point of this entry would be this: I can’t believe the audacity some people have. I just can’t. Every time I think a new low has been reached and that it can’t possibly get any worse, I’m proven wrong. The lesson that I’m taking away from all of this? People can always reach a new low, no matter what you think.
