This is a podcast that involves a phone call with a "friend" who I thought was my friend until she distanced herself from me and considered me as a stranger. With her excluding and denying our supposed "friendship", I was faced with the hard truth and realized I never had any friends that I kept from my childhood. It took me another three years until I met my first true friend who is still my closest friend until today.
Until now, I have no idea why she chose to turn her back on the friendship that we had. Maybe it was me for fantasizing that we were friends although we weren't, or maybe she thought of me as another classmate and a dedicated seatmate. Maybe its me, maybe its her, but it's in the past, and it is useless to keep pointing fingers on who started it.
Nevertheless, I'm thankful she met the friends who deserved her more than me, and I'm content with what I have and who I am with now. I am thankful that she grew into a better person, even though she was different from the girl I knew. Even though I don't know the reason, I respect her decision as she fades into my memories of champagne problems.
