A friend like nada

[Guest guest]

I haven't visited here for a couple of days, right I am working 2

jobs to earn money for my week at the Caron House....so things are

busy.

I have to post about this because I don't know how many of you feel

like you have a sign on you that says, fool. I have taken so much

from my nada and husband, that it just really sucks. I feel like my

capacity to tolerate and accept too much just pours over into so many

of relationships.

Recently a friend and I had a falling out. I felt like the

relationship was too one sided. I was usually the one who would

arrange our gatherings and I always felt like I was the one who was

calling her. She was very disapproving of the new additions to my

life- therapy, Reiki, the books I was reading on positive intentions-

like The Secret. A mutual friend of ours said she felt like this

friend treated me more like her daughter, then a friend. Like the

disapproving parent. I just shrugged it off and said I already had

one of those.

Since this falling out and it was over me standing my ground with

her, this friend called our mutual friend and said she felt like I

needed to be taught a lesson actually be punished for the way I am

changing. So she is choosing to ignore me and she hoped our mutual

fiend would do the same.... What the hell, friends don't do that to

each other.

Yikes....do I pick friends that are like nada, and if so--why?

This situation with this friend is getting me to rethink a lot of

relationships in my life....I don't want difficult people in my life,

but they somehow are there .....and I put up with way more then I

should, so when I do stand up to them and they want to punish me...omg

Anyone else have a friend or exfriend like their BP parent?

Thanks for listening,
