We all have that one friend who we can share everything with, right? Well, imagine if that friend suddenly asked you to change the way you dress because it made them uncomfortable. That’s exactly what happened to a 19-year-old girl who finally found confidence in her body after working hard on her mental and physical health. But when she started wearing clothes that showed off her toned midriff, her close friend began making comments and eventually demanded she cover up.
