my best friend is texting my ex they’re gonna try to be “just friends” can she not see how f-ed up this is to me? how blind can she be? my best friend forever? forever's a stretch cuz i kinda resent her cuz she’s hurting me like no one else could and i’m trying to forgive and forget like i should but she's so optimistic and so opportunist a snake in the grass, tell me, how does she do it? and now i'm confused, thought friends have your back she's always making passive-aggressive attacks tell me, what are friends for? when they’re the reason you’re crying on the bathroom floor? “just friends” you say but that’s nothing new i used to be “just friends” with him too
