The Great Falling Out

First I wanna tell y’all about friends.

Friends grow apart right? I know I’ve had my fair share of losing them.

Sometimes you make a friend for life. Sometimes that person only was in your life because you only needed each other at that time only. Do you believe in that stuff?

I do.

This is my first article and I wanted to talk about experiences with friends. So sit back and read if you’d like. Some friends are pieces of shit, but others are like you found a diamond in a pile of horse shit.

So this one shall be called, “the great falling out”

I have a friend named Sharlize; we have known each other since we were three, we met in school. We were basically at each others hip growing up, all we really had was each other, both of us never had a stable family or stable parents in a marriage, so we became each others sister. I think that’s what we really needed, and I don’t think we even realized at the time why we needed each other so much. But we grew to understand that sometimes we felt like we were all that each other had.

Fast forward to middle school, sixth grade. I think our patience began to get tested a lot—although we would spend every day together, morning and afternoon. She would come to my house in the morning and we would walk to the bus stop. There were so many idiots at that bus stop, may I add. We would go to school, then after school take the bus to her house until 5:30 when I would be picked up. When we would get off the bus for her house, people would call us the “lesbian lovers” 'cause we only hung out with each other most times hahaha. Idiots.

We grew and went on to freshman year. I was 15, and she was 14, although she already looked 17 standing at 5’11.

That’s when it got hard, and I think we started testing each other without acknowledging what happened. We began to fight constantly. Really, it was nonstop. I remember on the first day of freshman year though, we thought we had no classes together, and I walked into my computer literacy class, and she was sitting down, and we both freaked out because we haven’t had a class together since the 6th grade. We were laughing non fucking STOP during that class.

So off topic... anyways.

We started testing one another with out thinking about it. We began fighting over basically nothing, and it got harder. We decided to stop being friends, and she made the decision to go live with another parent in another city.

We were pretty dramatic for our age. And from there we took different routes.

Until... the next part comes out ;)
