Got bored and made a punk edit of Zoella

Wrote this almost a year ago before I was into anyone and I find it funny how this could totally be about the girl I’m into now even though I didn’t know her a year ago.

This is for...

     This is to all the people that have the one sided friends. Where you enjoy being around them but you’re always the one making the plans. To the people whose friends make plans with other people but never make plans with you. This is to the ones that sit alone in their room until they decide to try to hang out with someone. To the people who make plans with friends days, weeks, MONTHS in advance, remind them over and over again, and then the friends say: “I’m not sure whether I can go or not.”

    It seems as if we always have time for them but they never have time for us. They’re the ones that leave their friends behind when something new in their life begins. They are the ones that consume themselves in what’s new and forget who and what was there before. This is to the people whose friends stopped hanging around as much because they started dating someone. The friend that chose to be with their boyfriend or girlfriend five times a week, but you two haven’t hung out once in over two weeks. This is to the people whose friends consume themselves in their work, leaving no time for friends, even on the holidays and weekends. The friends that haven’t figured out, or won’t try, to learn how to balance a social life with their work life.

    This is to the people that have second thoughts about being friends with these people. To the people that are fed up with trying to do things with people that just don’t care as much. This is to the people that give but seem to never receive. This is to the people that are always there for others, even though others aren’t there for them. This is to the kids that try to make plans with people from school, but those plans always seem to fall short. This is to the friends that agree to do something but one of them bails. This is to the people who are tired of hearing the same fucking excuses. My mom wants me to do chores. Sorry I already have plans. I’m not home. I have work. I have a stupid fucking excuse that you’ve heard time and time again. This is for the people that know what it’s like, past or present. For the kids in the future that will one day have a one sided friend. This is for our sisters, our brothers, our aunts and uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews. This is for anyone and everyone. This is for the people that think they’re crazy for not wanting to have friends. This is for me. For you. This is for us.

    I don’t think people realize they’re a one sided friend. Probably because we are too afraid to speak up about it. Because having this one sided friend is better than having no friends, and we justify it in our heads, but inside, we’re alone. We feel so alone, because on most days we sit in our darkened room with the curtains and doors closed, talking to people online that know the pain that comes with having a one sided friend.

    Maybe it’s time to tell them. Maybe if we draw the curtains, open up the doors, push the fucking elephant out of the room, he is way too big to fit in a room that small anyway, maybe then we’ll receive something. Maybe we’ll finally get something in return. We’ve given them miles and maybe we’ll get them back. But if we don’t say anything they’ll never know. And I can guarantee 100 percent that nothing will change if you don’t.

    This is to remind us. To make us realize that when we don’t do anything to fix the problem the problem will just continue. We stand in our own way. We are the enablers of our own life. We continue to let it happen instead of saying something. We’re like bystanders, we want things to change but we just let it continue. The first step to fixing a problem is admitting there is one. So this is a reminder that we can have better. We deserve better, no matter what anyone has ever told you. This is for us. For our friends. This is for anyone that needs it. And if you need it, then this is for you too.
