We must have heard this phrase severally - come and give me a bear hug.
While it sounds so sweet and soothing to the ears its a die slow syndrome.
Let me break this down for you. A bear is an amazing creature with very comfortable furs and hairs that keeps you warm and gives a sense of belonging yet it kills faster than a gunshot.
Have you heard of how it kills its very big preys? Yea it gives a Bear hug. The hug that squeezes and crushes the bones till the last breath. At first, it feels so all comfortable and sweet then it turns sour at the end.
This is the same attribute some so-called friends have. they make you feel so comfortable and happy with them, but in the end, they crush you down completely leaving you lifeless. They had that all planned from the beginning.
Beware of people who call you friends and never acts like one. honestly, it may be hard to know who is who at a first glance but it is important that you take note of those who you let into your life and space. if you don't, you may eventually be let outs your sweet life.
Stay safe guys, keep your sanity and peace with the right set of friends.
