feeling like an accessory
I've been feeling more like an accessory in the friend group that I once felt essential to. If there is a social hierarchy, I feel as though my status is being lowered.
I don't know why. Maybe it's because I feel like an accessory and therefore act like an accessory or maybe it's stress. Regardless, I'm not desperate enough to latch onto a friend group that doesn't want me.
There are people who are insanely charismatic--the people who make a hangout less worthy of attending if they are absent. I..don't know. I don't care enough to spend so many braincells tormenting this issue.
I hope it's simply all in my head. Do I attempt to keep climbing the social ladder?
