it's been almost a year since my ex-friend suddenly left our mutual friend group chat over an immature reason and here i am, still angry at her. she was *23* YEARS OLD AND INSTEAD OF COMMUNICATING LIKE THE ADULT SHE WAS, SHE PREFERRED VENTING AT ME WITH HER DISCORD STATUS. she found a new friend group that shared her interest in sexualizing "niche fictional character(s)". she would constantly talk about either "niche character(s)" or her new friends, leaving little to no room for our friendship. it was her either infodumping or putting almost zero effort into us hanging out anymore. i had several serious seemingly productive talks with her about everything, but i guess at some point she switched up and decided her fixations mattered the most; my feelings could go disintegrate for all she cared. in the end, all i was given was no closure and the accusation of being "controlling". i genuinely cared about her but i was mistaken to think she felt the same.
