honestly that's the mindset that i've come to terms with over the years. i did what i could manage at that point 2/3 years ago with my mental health being where it was at (and honestly, the low point that i was at during that time was MAJORITY in reaction to that group of friends being the toxic individuals that they were).

the reason i even give this individual a second thought isn't necessarily because i'm experiencing guilt at cutting her out, because after 2/3 years, what is there to even think about, but just that i believe in giving people the benefit of the doubt and clearly that's not something i'm providing to this person who i suppose had adequate time to grow and change as an individual (even though i'm skeptical since she's still friends with the main culprits that hurt me the most back then)
