I have lost people. Lots of them. This week I realized after so much thinking that all of my relationship has been transactional and I wasn't noticing.
Every time someone comes into my life, they take and take and take until I reach the bottom. When I am dry and high, our relationship sours and everyone leaves.
It took me this long to notice the pattern. I am aiming for a fresh start with each of my relationships with people. I just have one last person who has been running me dry to finish up with this week, and I'll start selecting the people I have around me.
I'm sorry about that man, but trust me, I know exactly how he feels. But don't allow the guilt to burn you, it's in the past, Move on, I'm sure that man would want this for you too.
Hahaha, well, I actually don't see this human nature as wickedness, I think it's just people being people. Accepting or embracing that inner them. So life's always going to be transactional and there will always be people who just wants to take advantage and actually not care if they're giving anything in return.
The most terrible aspect of it is that when you demand accountability or refuse to be in a one-sided relationship, this is when you'll begin to be seen as a bad or insensitive person.
As per the man in question. This thing happened about 10 years ago, but sometimes we cannot continue blaming youthfulness for one's mistakes, and there are people who wouldn't forgive even when you try to make amends. I've learned and yeah, moving on is the key.
Hah! This part. I have learned to let it go. Asking for accountability will only hurt you because the things they will spill out of their mouth will leave you wondering if you did anything wrong by being a good person to them...
This is a good decision 🥳🥳
Hahaha, irrespective of anything, I ask for accountability. I cannot be close or acquainted with people who I can share accountability with, and this is because I feel accountability is the bedrock of respect and continuity. Never been scared of losing people, especially if they're the appropriate people that needs "losing"
Lol. It's the last part for me.... The appropriate people that needs losing has to be lost... Period!!! 😆
Yeah, there's an appropriation. When we see people that needs to be lost, we'd definitely know.
