The Silent Struggle: When Emotional Support Becomes One-Sided

The emotional toll of being the 'always there' friend is a common experience for many. A recent video by geniusgirlalert on social media highlights this issue, prompting a conversation about the importance of reciprocal support in relationships. In a candid discussion, geniusgirlalert describes how she consistently provides emotional support to friends but rarely receives the same in return. "It's not selfish for people to not be checking up on you," she states, emphasizing the need for self-preservation. The video has resonated with thousands, sparking a discussion on social media about the balance between giving and receiving in friendships. The message is not just about setting boundaries but also about recognizing the value of self-care and the importance of mutual support in healthy relationships.
