When you could not support yourself, I gave a helping hand.Yet, you call me selfish.
When you could not be a mother, I loved your child.
Yet, you call me heartless.
When you had nowhere to turn, I was your shoulder to cry on.
Yet, you call me cruel.
When you were abandoned, I opened up my home.
Yet, you call me neglectful.
When you were lonely, I was your sister.
Yet, you call me your enemy.
When you were worried, I listened to your fears.
When you were sad, I cheered you up.
When you were afraid, I was your protector.
When you were in need, I was there.
Yet, you call me a bitch.
When you are lost, I pray for you.
Yet, you call me evil.
Your insults do not hurt me.
They only make me stronger.
Your hatred can not stop me.
My love keeps growing larger.
Your bitterness can not taint me.
My world is full of sweetness.
I know you must be hurting.
But my time to help has passed.
God is with you.
But only you can ask.

There comes a point where you have to let toxic relationships like this one go. You tried your best.
Great post. Sadly, I can relate as I'm sure most of us can. I agree with Shell - there comes a point where you have to let it go.
I have recently had to cut lose from my "best friend" of 10 years. I know ur pain. I am about 6 weeks out and find myself wanting to slip back in. Anyway, I know how u r feeling. Thank you for sharing.

Never punch a gift-horse in the mouth.
I too had to end a long-term, but toxic friendship. It was simply too painful to continue being the target.
My heart is breaking for you. It is so not fair. But I think with this post you are on your way to letting go.
Toxic, absolutely! This sounds like a vampire friend. I had one once. Once I shed her, my life has been sooooooooo much better. Can't even describe the better.
Somestime you do in face have to let someone go their own way, even if it hurts you to see them hurt. Let your hurt be counteracted by the positive feeling of that weight being lifted...
