I have all these awesome friends, why the hell am I trying anymore with the ones who aren't so great? Once I came to this decision, everything else just kinda fell in place. Still talk to the kinda friends, but don't get concerned when their responses are surface.Lori Anne Haskellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06876687764303847012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12130919.post-1138249796336440182006-01-25T23:29:00.000-05:002006-01-25T23:29:00.000-05:00I know how you feel- I sent something similar to t...I know how you feel- I sent something similar to those ** people in my life in July...I told them that I didn't have the energy to pretend that we were friends anymore, and that it would be healthier for me to drop them. <BR/>I can't believe someone as smart and talented as you would let anyone that toxic have an effect on your person....Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697810828647974967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12130919.post-1138027680617634552006-01-23T09:48:00.000-05:002006-01-23T09:48:00.000-05:00Of course you are not one of those people, LOL!

This all happened a long time ago, I was just feeling philosophical tonight thinking about it and how I was glad I got over being that way long ago. :).Lori Anne Haskellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06876687764303847012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12130919.post-1138026904393183312006-01-23T09:35:00.000-05:002006-01-23T09:35:00.000-05:00Girl I am with you.

I saw a "friend" that I had in High School a few months back and she told me "Oh you haven't changed at all" I told her that I wasn't as sweet as I used to be. I feel so jaded when it comes to "friends". It seems like after High School everyone's real colors started to show and I got burned for being too nice. Now if someone pisses me off I write them off. They act like we are still friends and I just laugh and walk away. I don't have many friends anymore but I see is as me downsizing my friendships to people who I trust, trust me and deserve for me to spend time caring for them. The list is few and I am happy with it.<BR/>Isn't it amazing as you get older you get a lot smarter?<BR/>I hope I am not one of the people*<BR/>I guess I can't be though since I live in Texas...Thank goodness!<BR/>Love ya!Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17651118500856452555noreply@blogger.com
