I’ve had a bit of a realisation the last few days and something a mate said to me was she saw this quote on insta her mate posted and it was something like ‘you haven’t met anyone you’re gonna spend the rest of your life with’ etc or something along the lines of you haven’t met anyone you’re gonna know on 30 years time and for some reason that resonated with me. 

At the moment, I’ve gone through a bad relationship. I’m so glad it’s over looking back. I deserved a lot better and put up with a lot of verbal abuse and I also acted awful, I was probably a bit full on and intense which was not fair at all. 

It was someone who a lot of people I know, know and like them as well so it’s awkward and I think a lot of my so called ‘friends’ were acting shady as well and I’ve realised that I want to move cities and have a complete fresh start. 

I deserve better friends, I deserve someone that cherishes me also. I deserve a better career. However when I mentioned this to my family they think I’m overreacting.

I don’t see how wanting a fresh start and cutting most my current circle off is dramatic at all? I think it’s a good thing. I know what I want from my friendships and relationships and what I currently have is not that. 

Is it weird to cut everyone off, even if i’m certain this is what I want?
