As adults, I know you’d expect that we have at least some level of maturity and common sense but most of us lack these especially the common sense aspect. At this point in my life, you wouldn’t find me mingling with people so much. It’s more than obvious when and if I don’t like someone because my face literally says it all. Plus, what do I have to hide.
I’m not afraid of anyone and also, I have the right to decide who I want to be friends with. Some people are influenced into being friends with their own enemies. It’s more like they don’t have a choice. Obviously, someone would say that a friend of your friend should be your friend but I totally disagree with that. My friend @yahuzah has friends I detest so much but that doesn’t stop us from being friends. What he does with his friends is their business. What matters is the kind of relationship my friends and I have.
Just last Monday, I woke up to a text from someone I had totally forgotten about. I don’t quite remember how I met this person but we had known each other for years. But then, throughout the time we knew each other, I realized that this person had some sort of anger issues or should I even call it pride. This person would use any least opportunity they got to start a fight with me for no reason. I’m not one to get into quarrels and all of that and so I’d just find a way to settle things. But then, it was getting too much as this person thought they could control me and that was it for me. I just told the person the truth and we never spoke again.
This Monday, I woke up to a text talking about how I have been forgiven. Forgiven for what exactly?Someone has to be so stupid to some extend to just wake up after two years to tell me they have forgiven for nothing in particular. I didn’t even waste my time to reply this bs. Just chop block because I hate nonsense. Everyone has pride but sometimes we just humble ourselves because it’s no use having pride. It’s a good thing to have friends but then we should know when to let go. Now, I don’t waste my time on anyone that doesn’t give me money, food , a place to sleep or add anything to my life. You literally have no use in my life so why can’t I have my peace of mind all because of one person.
Last year, I had to cut off another friend because she was being so unreasonable. She actually ghosted me because she told me she was in an open relationship with her boyfriend and all I said was my boyfriend would even mind me if I brought something like that. Her reason for ghosting me was that she felt attacked. Attacked for what? Am I a terrorist? I know that she claims she felt attacked because she didn’t want to hear the bitter truth. But everyone is entitled to his own opinion. Just because you don’t want to hear the truth doesn’t mean that I don’t get to express my views in a friendship. That was just the end of our friendship because I don’t like drama in my life.
In life, we need people but for some people, it’s better to be alone because they’d make your life even worse than it is. In choosing the people you deal with in life, go for sensible and thoughtful people, not those with 1k TikTok followers with empty heads.
Peace!
