"I'm absolutely there for my friends, no matter what. A true friendship you don't expect anything in return, but you get it anyway."

Mina

"I have in the past. Had to give up on a friend, but I think it was better for both parties. If it feels wrong, then it is wrong."

Heath

"I have had friends that I probably, in hindsight, didn't like very much."

Bella

"Ghosting is like the worst like possible method of saying to a friend, 'Look, I just need some space from you'."

Tiana

Madeline

"Sometimes I'll say things that are perhaps a little bit, they could come across as harsh."
