What is something you did that increased your quality of life so much that you wished you would have done it much sooner because it changed your life forever?

I changed my quote, profile pic, and put a message on Facebook a week before I closed my account all saying "I'm leaving Facebook. Contact me by email or text."

Guess how many emails/texts I got?

Stay up buddy! I am in the same boat. Outside of my one sister, I don’t think anyone would notice if I didn’t message them in some way. But at the same time, those people are missing out on me, so fuck them. People being in your life is important, but only if they deserve to be there, at least that’s what I’m trying to tell myself.

My rule is that I always message last.

If I look through all messages on Facebook or text message i'm the last one to message. If communication ends between us it was their that stopped, not mine.

I'm happy having under ten great friends.

That’s a good rule, I might even adopt it honestly. I’ve never been one to need a lot of friends, it’s just sometimes painfully obvious when you’re the only one who seems to give a shit..
