I&#8217;m just a substitute when people are bored. You ask why I let people push me around. It&#8217;s because it&#8217;s the only way people will hang out with me. It&#8217;s because if I say it bothers me I&#8217;ll be all alone. I don&#8217;t really mind, I&#8217;m used to it. I&#8217;m used to being a third wheel, I&#8217;m used to being second best or the only option left. I don&#8217;t blame them though, I blame me. I did this. I&#8217;m a terrible person, a terrible human being, a terrible friend. I&#8217;m selfish, only thinking about me and how I feel. I don&#8217;t care about how you feel annoyed, or how you want to be alone or with somebody else. I&#8217;m sorry. I truly am. You&#8217;re not doing anything wrong, I know that and you know that. I just get caught up in my feelings. I never had real friends before I met you guys, not surprising huh. Well, I had two or three, I guess, but I had a lot of fake ones. I guess when I met you guys and got real ones I didn&#8217;t want to lose you guys and got too attached and became a clinging, whiny brat. I have done so much wrong and am so selfish. I&#8217;m sorry, I think you should leave for your own good. I cause way too much drama and I&#8217;m so dramatic. See, I&#8217;m causing so much drama right now. Like I&#8217;ve said before, you deserve so much better.
