Please don't be so sensitive, Randy. I told you I'd give you a stale strawberry donut.
But to answer your question, yes, on multiple occasions. I'm not sure there was no other choice, but it was the choice I made based on how I felt at the time.
Why can’t I get the fresh strawberry donuts? Am I not worthy, am I not good enough? You have someone else, I’ll bet that’s the reason I only get the stale ones. Fine, you’ll never see me nor my tilde collection again. Suffer for all I care. ~
We don't have to think of it in such harsh terms. Simply removing our focus from them is often enough. But if they continue to bring us down then closing the door of them may just be the only option. Some people have no boundaries.
I have done so on many occasions. The reality is, we always have a choice. However, if someone is abusive or toxic, that choice eventually becomes whether we can still allow them to be in our lives without them creating consequences for us or whether we're willing to tolorate/ accept those consequences.
Well, it's like this. I've been shut out of someone else's life and they took everything I had. Thing is that they never told me to my face and that's a thing a coward would do. Try to never assume that I was the one that did something wrong since that's the default setting for most.
Yes. When I do, it is usually goodbye. Not always.
I had a friend, whom I loved and adored, that would not stop drinking FOR YEARS. I put up with it for years and he got worse and worse and I just told him not to ever call again because I do not want to watch him die. That was several years ago and he is probably dead. Enough is enough.
