Okay maybe you don't. I do. It's a character flaw of mine, I would say. I see the good in most people.
Today I let two people in my life go. I've given them every chance to step up and have their words match their actions. Yet, I'm left disappointed.
What pissed me off the most, is BOTH of them tried to turn it around on me. Which really made me laugh, and confirmed I was making the correct decision to discard them from my life. When I consider someone a friend, not an acquaintance, I put it all in. Occasionally, that's not appreciated. In return, I wasn't even met with the utmost common courtsey and respect.
I made the decision that I was making efforts with people who didn't respect or care. I made it clear to both of them as to why I was essentially breaking up with them as friends.... I owed them that, cos even though they didn't care enough about me to treat me right, I'm not going to stop being me.
I was met with excuses. Lots of excused, and even some lies. The same ones I'd been met with in the past by them. It was predictable. Laughable really, and sadly still disappointing.
I feel relieved.
