Random Thoughts XXXXI

When people leave, when they make it clear either by their words or their behaviour, that they don't want you to be part of their life, you need to leave.
You need to respect their decision, but also, to respect yourself.

Don't beg. Don't try to contact them. Don't try to change their mind. Don't try to see how they're doing, if they're ok.
Once you have established you're not wanted, leave.

Rejection is hard, but you've probably rejected people around you without realising it too.
We'll always hurt others and others will always hurt us, that's for sure.

So accept the fact and move on.

For them, but also for you as well. 

Random Thoughts XXXVI

I have had to let go of many people in my life.

Friends, "family," lovers...

All of those people had one thing in common: they either disrespected me or someone/something I care about.
Now, those people as most of the people that have approached me or formed all sorts of relations with me over the years trusted me with secrets, and personal information.
I don't know, it seems people like to open up to me for some reason.
No matter what a person has done to me, and how much they have hurt me I have never shared their secrets or personal info.
And I never will.

So, when I see people who are "best friends" backstabbing each other or gossiping about each other and sharing extremely private information without the other person's consent, I get pissed off.
Don't do that shit.

If you have a person in your life that you feel you can't respect or treat properly, let them go. 
Sometimes people bring the worst of us, but those people we need to let go. 

For them, but more importantly, for ourselves.
