I'd like to add that if you continue spying on your SO, your friends who are mature with responsibilities of their own don't want to hear about it. Go to your gossipy friends and share every iota of what you're doing, speculating, etc. Leave your mature, balanced friends out of it.

I get it tho. The umpteenth time someone comes to me and just spews the same drama I'm going to tell them to politely f off.

If you're jealous but refuse to do anything about it, there's only so much sympathy I can offer before I tell you to either DO something to change your situation or leave me alone.

There's a difference between being a good friend and being an emotional dumping ground for someone who produces/invites drama.

I'm so thankful my friends can talk to me about whatever that want because I fucking love them.

I'm thankful I have real friends that let me talk about what's on my heart.

It most definitely is. Not everyone wants to be roped into negative stupid shit. Especially these days.

100% and it takes way more effort to stay out of it, than should be required. Hope you survive the holidays! :)

Are 5 year-olds even allowed to be chemists? Do you have an adult with you that can help you get the fancy acids off of the top shelf? Do you have a step ladder to help you worknunder the fume hood?

So many questions!

Thissss. I very much want to be there for all my friends, but that shit gets draining once we’re grown.
