12816232, I need to make friends w/people who aren't broken Posted by caramelapplebttms, Wed May-27-15 08:48 PM
I tend to be drawn to broken people because of my own brokenness but I'm growing out of it. During this process of growth, the broken people I made friends with have acted predictably.
I realized that some of my closest relationships were based on the fact that the other person was flawed (we all are, but I mean in a way that is damaging and hurtful to others) that I was able to be authentic with them because I didn't regard them highly enough to be embarrassed.
Also, I am now keenly aware of all the people who've offered me their whole-hearted, pure friendship that I have ignored, mainly out of shame.
But other than this, I'm great. Really great. This process has been so necessary.
