I'm doing me.

This is for those generally in my life. Please don't be upset with me now that we are no longer so close. Yes, I used to be with you, talk to you, hang out with you, and see you a lot. There was a time where I was attached to you all by the hip, yes? I'm learning to be independent. In the end of the day, we all go our own ways. Things happen and things get in the way. Instead of trying to maneuver around everything, I've adjusted myself to being on my own. I'm dealing with my own problems and minding my own agenda. It just so happens that somewhere along the lines, I've become a bit preoccupied. I don't know what else to say but honestly ask you to understand. I'm sorry that I have more things on my plate now. I expect you to as well. I don't want you to put aside important things to play with me. I really am not. I don't expect you to either, I want you to take care of your work. Things haven't gone my way so often that I've learned that I need to set time aside specifically for them. I'm going to do me, and you should do you.  It's a matter of time that this happened. We're growing up and detaching from the need for constant social contact. It doesn't change how much I value and appreciate you as a person. It's just that I have more things I need to take care of first at the moment.
