Today is NATIONAL UNFRIEND DAY!
Who in your life drains your energy? Who in your life seems to be on a constant mission to steal your joy? Whose posts on your social media newsfeed disturb your spirit everytime you see it?
We live in a world where the word “UNFRIEND” instantly makes you think of the people who you want or need to delete from your social media friends list. However, although deleting people from your social media friends list may be necessary for you to keep your sanity, there are some people that you likely need to UNFRIEND in real life.
In honor of National UNFRIEND DAY, here is a list of 20 people that you should consider unfriending. This list is not all-inclusive; however, my intent is to help you reflect on the relationships, friendships, and situationships that are a part of your life. Remember, no one is perfect, but these are sure signs that you need to reflect and evaluate some things and some people in your life. Who knows…the person that may need to be unfriended is the “ugly side of YOU!”
