i think standing up for yourself in this situation is the right thing to do. If you're emotionally invested in these friends, it may actually make it a little bit harder for you to make space for other people. The only am last thing that i wantto to say to you is about awkwardness. Like it's going to be awkward for one, two, three, four parties after that. So ery basically like know everything that that happened. But i'm mostly worried about having all these like, superficial friendships, not real differentships.
