‘She’d get back with him [and] I’d go back to being invisible’: Best friend refuses to be Leah’s breakup backup plan, shuts down being treated as emergency contact

Years-long friendships are where we can feel most at home, but when you realize the other side of the friendship feels so much at home, you’re basically just a spare room. It’s time to renegotiate the lease, or just pack your stuff and move out altogether 

There’s a certain kind of bond that forms when you’ve known someone since high school, shared secrets, cried on each other’s couches, and believed and promised this thing right here is forever. But a lot of times, that belief is just teenage naivety, which is beautiful up to the point that most of the initial bond has faded away, and all that’s left is being used as a fallback for an emotionally unstable self-proclaimed princess, Leah.
