10 Lessons We Learned In Junior High…And Then Again Later In Life
Some friendships aren’t forever.
At the beginning of my seventh grade year, I wrote that one of my friends from elementary school was getting on my very last nerve. She would nitpick about my clothes and hair and we just generally started to focus on different things. I held on to that friendship long after seventh grade just because I thought you were supposed to keep your childhood friends forever. But I learned then that that is not always the case. And while I try not to become to saddened by it, it’s a lesson that I’ve relearned in my twenties. People and their priorities change. And though there might not be any love lost, sometimes you just have to part ways.
