This young woman has a friend named Tara, whom she has been close to since they were both just kids.
Growing up, kids at school would bully her and Tara for being heavier than everyone else, and this really served to make them closer friends.
She and Tara eventually “became inseparable,” and now they are both in their 20s with the bullying far behind them.
Not too long ago, Tara lost a ton of weight. Although she used to weigh in at 190 pounds, she’s currently just 145.
“I’ve noticed that her behavior has changed a lot since her weight loss,” she explained. “She wears more revealing clothing now, eats a lot less, and is more social than she used to be.”
“Which means that she spends less time with me when we used to hang out a lot before. This hurt me, but I can see that she’s happy, so I never brought it up.”
A couple of days back, she celebrated her birthday and had a party with all of her friends. One friend of hers baked her a brownie birthday cake.
After everyone had sung her Happy Birthday, the cake was cut, and her sister did the honors. Her sister ended up cutting enormous slices of cake for all of their guests, and when her sister passed Tara a piece, Tara didn’t want to accept it as it was.
Tara mentioned that she wanted to only get a “taste” of the cake, and she also wanted a tinier slice than what everyone else had gotten.
