Over the past few months, I have gained a FP and have dealt with it better than any previous FP. I have watched them grow so much and feel so proud of them for accomplishing the things they have told me they wanted to accomplish. I feel very happy for them.

At the same time, I have felt a deep sadness because although I support them and always will, I feel less needed. Our conversations feel shorter with each passing day, I don't receive the same amount of attention I used to, I even notice they don't use certain emojis in chats that they did in the past. Like the Lorde lyric goes "I overthink your p-punctuation use. Not my fault, just a thing that my mind do."
I need to have a face-to-face conversation with them to discuss everything I'm feeling, but I need to wait until my car is fixed and we can set up a day. A lot has been weighing on my mind and I just needed to let it out somewhere.
