      I kinda disagree on that, based on my experience, I prefer to spend my time with my "real" friends, who see me as an equal, knows my failures and accept me for my flaws, sometimes going to people who celebrate you is often, boring, you dont feel yourself, you feel trapped and maybe they dont like the same things as you.

      Although, I think it's proactive to have further discussion, to keep open to consideration, expanding the reflection on their and my values. It might prove to serve you, and or them. I see this period characterized by personal, prideful bubbles. I realize such a tact is simply democracy, yet before too long we will find ourselves with no other to discuss and reflect with, and there is no such dishonorable a condition.. Because I've gone there, I know. Peace

A lot of toxic people get away with transgressions bc "we should just forgive" or "just give them a chance." If there are numerous red flags, patterns and repeated offenses, you handed me the scissors ✂️ so don't be mad that I cut you off. This isn't done out of spite or hate. It's self love.

      While Nina is correct from the standpoint of this subject, if you are in a relationship to ‘get’ love you need to re-think your priorities. Because then you become the person who is demanding the time and attention of someone else, instead of giving freely.

      It took me a while but I did walk away.
      I was really in love so all my life plans and goals were betting on her to be there.
      It felt SO lonely when I finally left. It felt like even if I achieve a lot in life there would be no one to share it with.
      So I started talking again to her, but did something different. I respected myself while I kept giving her rope. Long story short she hanged herself with the rope I gave her. Now I KNOW I dodged a bullet, and I feel so much better.

      @@injujuan8993 Well, in my case she showed 10 time more emotions than I did so it felt like she genuinely cared. Heck, she's the one approached and showed attraction towards me first. There was a time when every decision I made revolved around her and I gave it all to her when I thought her feelings were genuine. So when she was gone, it felt like I lost everything. The stereotype about "males have less emotions" is completely the opposite. Men just express it less while their feelings are stronger while females like to show more than they care. Not to generalize too much because everyone is different but I'm judging this based on my experience.

If we keep walking away “until” finding someone ..... by the end of ur life u will find urself so tired of repeating the process of keep walking away and keep trying to find the persons who is compatible with u. This process is sooo tiring, plus there is ought to be problems between people. We can’t keep giving up every time something happens.

      Good for you. Humans are animals at the end of the day, and step-parent abuse is much more prevalent than abuse from actual parents. It's because the kids are of no use to the stepparent, they only use resources. The other people are mad at you because you're ruining their wish of a perfect family, and they dont care how much it hurts you. But the reality is that you dont feel good and the family is rotten, so let them have their tantrums. God bless.

      I disagree wholly with that statement. The word "no" seldom has place in negotiations without a set of conditions that needs to be accommodated to turn the "no" into a "yes". And the feet don't need a set of conditions to be worked out in order to put distance to the person trying to make you a servant. If you are in a negotiation, then an objective for all parties is trying to gain the upper hand in order to negotiate the best result for themselves. This means that any negotiation once complete will have resulted in all the parties being both master and servants in varying degree because of the compromises that will inevitably be made by both under the conditions of the negotiation. So Jordan's statement should rightly be "Going into any kind of negotiation will result in you being a servant to some degree."

Although many people attribute the 110 rules to Washington, because the rules were found written by his hand, Scholars today believe that the rules were likely copied by Washington as a penmanship exercise.
      The actual quote is #56 of 110 rules and reads… ‘Associate yourself with Men of good Quality if you Esteem your own Reputation; for ‘is better to be alone than in bad Company.’ The 110 rules are based on a set of rules composed by French Jesuits in 1595, and they were first translated into English in 1640.” - Doug Staneart | Leadership Tips

    Walking away from people who have no respect for your boundaries is necessary. They have proven there's no possibility of change because they have proven they have no interest in change. They will continue to manipulate, take advantage, and use you as long as you let them. Time to respect and love You .. It's very freeing. You will come back to center, where yoy will find joy and contentment again. It's beautiful!

    I've learned as someone ho has spent most of my adult life putting others wants above my needs, one of my greatest gifts is my absence. My light is that powerful and now that I know this, I am more mindful and purposeful on who and what I shine it on. These days I'm spending more time shining on myself lol.

      That’s good to hear honestly. Your message is so encouraging. I know it had to be very hard to just find the courage to stop serving other people needs and put your needs first. I’m in my adult yrs as well all I been overly focus on trying to chase after so called friendships. I will be there whenever, but for me never show up. I helped and listened to all their needs but my needs was never met at all. Recently, I cried because everything is falling apart. God knows I tried, but God knows it wasn’t heathy for me. Glad you refocused your mind and your light 💡 started to shine bright. Adult years is so important and precious. 💯👌

    “Stay away from anyone who makes you feel as though you are hard to love” was one of the quotes that changed my life. I used to think I had to have everyone like me and would do things I really DID NOT WANT TO DO to simply appease someone else. I would
    tell myself that life is about sacrifice and that is a sign of maturity etc etc but omg it’s not and if you have people in your life who try to tell you that it is you need to seriously consider limiting your time with them and if possible eliminating them from your life completely 😔 Sending love 💕

    @1:41 "The thing is, when people notice that you lack direction, for example in the form of commitment to a personal goal, they will see your time as less valuable than theirs. This observation legitimizes you doing stuff for them instead of doing stuff for yourself. In their eyes, you're at least doing something valuable with your time, which is being a utility for their interest."

They have the best intentions, but it has happened to me that I was so metally weak, so lost and without direction that I practically set myself up for their "abuse". As with most things in life, the problem is not other people, but myself.

    I just walked away from an abusive boss. The job was a dream job, something I had been working towards for most of my life. I finally made it to my dream, and turns out it was unbearable due to my tyrant of a boss. I've been in abusive relationships before and I wasn't going to let it happen again, so I left. He sent me a very rude and condescending email after and I didn't respond. It feels so good to be out.

    You only know what someone means to you after they are gone. And vice versa, you will know what someone means to you after you left them. 3 groups of people
    1) when you are away from them, you miss them, you realised you value their presence. You are better with them
    2) when you are away from them, nothing changed. Your life go on as usual, no setback. (coworkers, acquintance, colleagues etc)
    3) when you are away from them, you are happier, their absence give you inner peace. You may miss them sometimes (or not at all) but you know you will be a better person without them.
    The 3rd kind of people, trust me, if their absence give you peace, you dont lose them, they lose you 😊

      Now it's easy to walk away if you alone yes it's better to walk away from people or situation that make no good to you
      but lately I see people run away from each other because it's easier to run from the problem than challenge it
      they really think walking away will change something when they find new purpose but after while they come back to same spot because don't realise problem is within them but fuc ked up is the mistake they repeat is thinking you can do it alone

    Today, I was walking through my apartment, and suddenly said, out loud.."why don't you like yourself ?" followed by the question.."why don't I love myself ?"...came out of nowhere..out loud! WOW !!!

    I'm PhD in walking away. Sometimes a little bit too much, probably. It's just like you say, just because you love people, it doesn't have to mean that you need them. I feel that's my whole life in a nutshell. There's people I love but I don't need them, nor their drama, nor being around them. I love myself more.

    For us INFJs. We called this "SLAM DOOR" personality. We just turned cold and walked away from people who hurt us and hated us.

    I've never had more satisfaction than I have the last few years walking away from toxic people.
