It's also one of my closest friends, 54 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: and our lease is up soon, but I've decided I 55 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,079 Speaker 1: don't want to renew it with her. Living together has 56 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: made me realize how different we are, and I feel 57 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 1: like her constant negativity and lack of motivation are starting 58 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,399 Speaker 1: to affect my own mindset and goals. I still care 59 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: about her and don't want to blow up the friendship, 60 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: but I can't keep sharing a space with someone that 61 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: feels like they're bringing me down. I'm worried she'll take 62 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: this as a rejection or judgment. How do you tell 63 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: someone you don't want to live with them anymore without 64 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:33,959 Speaker 1: losing their friendship? 65 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 2: This is real simple.

I need to learn how 71 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 3: to carve and make my own weight, so that in mind, 72 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 3: I'm not going to sign a lease with you again. 73 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 3: It is time for me to grow up fully. It 74 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 3: is time for me to learn how to take care 75 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 3: of myself, and it's time for me to learn how 76 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 3: not to share bills.
