Wise words on the friendship thing
E_O...
I was the offender once in a rash way ( I was 17 ), and twice when
i couldn't express my upset with one friend so i disappeared on them,
another friend when i had had enough of certain reocurring behavior
some general, some directed towards me; I pointed it out to them
at various times until i had had enough, and left.
I've had cycles of having less, then more, then less etc really close friends,
with a ring of semi-close friends, and bunches of acquaintences. Ive
been the offended (2 may have been misunderstandings, 1 complicated by possible
important letter not arriving <PRE-E-mail>
) not much more than i've offended. I still hope to re-win 2 of those friends. And I've kept a lot of friendships
for a pretty long to quite a long time. Which i guess says somethig good about me.
GG, I hear ya..... I've felt like that alot since 2006.
I thot things would in many ways finally calm down in 2012,
and then I had my ankle accident in April and the extra
emegency thing mid-May post surgery. Recovery etc.
I still feel partly side-swiped emotionally since I still have
some pretty major catch up to do from it all.
You do have strength and determination so hang in
there; have a Plan A, B and even C worked out to some deree.
Things will improve.
As to what I hate -- i believe most people have a little bit of
hypocracy, greed /or cruelty in them that will show up from
time to time. I do try to minimize any of that in me.
What i hate are people who are
majorily, more often
than not any of or all three of the above. Esp when they have some
degree of authority over others, or a major say in peoples lives though
not directly individual to individual.
