When You Don’t Feel the Partnership Is Equal

If you don’t know where you stand with a friend, it’s time to leave. Walls are built up and it is not your job to break them down.

Just because you’ve invested time in a friendship doesn’t mean you must stay to see it through—gone are the days we say that for romantic relationships; we shouldn’t say it for friendships, either.

If you have someone in your life who you want to let go of so they can grow (and so you can, too), leaving them to do just that is a gift. It can lead you to a little diner—out from the cold, and into the warmth of a new friendship.
