Well generally im a pretty happy person, I don't have much in life as far as material things go but I am blessed I have nice things though and a great family for the most part I mean I really cant complain .

Theirs two people in my life though who constantly try to bring me down weather its by telling me how wrong they think I am or simply hitting me wear it hurts, and that's my friend and my dad.

My friend constantly gets mad at me for being close with my mother and she hates how im so family oriented and she picks on me for just little dumb things as well like the fashion I like or the things I buy or how gross she thinks it is that I have animals in my home …our friendship is really falling apart and not many people like her .

Than theirs my dad who thinks im so selfish for wanting his help once in a while as a parent since hes too busy with his "new" family and he only ever talks to me when he wants to be nosy with his old family ( basically my parents are divorced )…and he really has no time to talk to me or bother with me and when he does he harasses me .

I just do not get it how when your a simple innocent person just enjoying life trying to be happy why people make such an effort to hurt you, I know misery loves company but really why do you think
people that use to be close to you try to hurt you in the end ?
Ive tried very hard to get to where I am and be happy and its like they just do not want to see that …anyways just wondering , maybe some people can relate ?
