I was thinking about talking about how I had a best friend when I got to college (at a different school), but our friendship dissolved because of me. She was an athlete, and I wasn't very supportive because I wanted her to give me a lot of attention with her very limited time. As time passed, she eventually stopped talking to me. I realized that I wasn't an understanding friend and I lacked emotional empathy to understand that she had a lot of pressure being an athlete at her school, and as a result, she no longer wanted to be friends with me. I grew from this experience because I learned what it meant to have great communication and listening skills to people, whether it's your friends, classmates, or, in the future, patients. Moving forward, I was able to have better friendships because I was a better listener and I was able to better understand what was being said to me.
Please be honest and tell if this sucks or not. This was the only thing I could think of outside of anything academically related.
