Why You Feel Exhausted Around That ONE Friend

Have you ever had a friend who was perfectly nice to everyone else, but left you feeling drained, judged, and second-guessing yourself whenever it was just the two of you? Navigating toxic friendships and subtle frenemies is exhausting. When there is no big fight or direct insult—just a constant stream of backhanded comments, weird reactions, and an invisible scoreboard—it’s easy to wonder if you're just being too sensitive. In this video, I share my personal story of walking away from a long-term friendship, why we make excuses for toxic people, and how to unlearn the internal comparison game long after they're gone. If you’ve ever struggled with setting personal boundaries, dealing with fake friends, or breaking free from emotional exhaustion, this video is for you. 💬 Let’s talk in the comments: Have you ever had a friendship where you couldn't quite explain what felt wrong, but you always left feeling a little worse about yourself?
