friend rant
I have this friend whose parents were a bit negligent. This is one friend who is always late, and has a gaming addiction, so she often plays games at night and sleeps during the day. We have fun together, but it is now overshadowed by her tardiness. I don’t remember if I wrote about her most recent tardiness a few weeks ago, but we were meant to meet at an animal shelter at a certain time, and it ended up with me going to her place and she was still asleep. She finally faced a consequence that impacted her for her lateness. The shelter was closing and we couldn’t see the animals. They gave her a roof over her head and paid bills, but never cooked or cleaned for her or themselves. To compensate for not being there for her as a kid, her dad now lives with her in an apartment, but it’s like she’s living alone. She gets an allowance from her dad, which she spends mostly on food and collectables. The dad makes his money from selling cigarettes, which he keeps in the living area of the apartment. There is no space to walk around. It stunk of cigarettes. The floor looked like it had never been cleaned. I gave her a small vacuum when she moved in, which was full of dust and looked like it hadn’t been touched since I helped her vacuum. Now she’s applying for a Centrelink payment. I asked her why seeing as her dad gives her money for groceries and stuff. She refuses to cook, and wants the extra money so she can spend more than $20 on food when she leaves the house. I feel sorry for her. But I also don’t want to be friends with someone who doesn’t give a shit about anyone except for herself. I don’t think it’s worth putting any energy into her anymore. Or any of the soul-sucking people who are late for no good reason. It sucks because we’ve been friends for ten years, but it is what it is. I’m going to put my social time into meeting new people and spending time alone doing the things I want to do. Being alone is peaceful. I hope one day, I can experience that peace with the right people.
