Guest Lawrence56 Posted November 29, 2020 Report Share Posted November 29, 2020 It has been a year since I grt rid those people in my life. We were very close friends. I always lend one of the guy some money to finance his car loan. I even went to his place and befriend his relatives. We frequently eat at expensive restaurants with his friends. My other friends were saying that I was being used that those guys befriended me for money. I was deaf and blind to what they were saying. I'm enjoying the company until I realize that they were right. One fine day I'm the who ask favor to those guys, they turned me down. Slowly they were ghosting me. They didn't talk to me at work. They no longer ask me to go out. Good thing I have other good friends. I have already moved on. Always love yourself first and never get abused especially for money.

Steve5380 Posted November 29, 2020 Report Share Posted November 29, 2020 Good that you had the opportunity to test those "good friends" and to learn a valuable lesson. Yes, WE should be the ones closest to our heart. And not be afraid that we put ourselves ahead of other people. Your post made me think that we should not let too much time pass before we TEST the friendship of others. We can do this by simulating some need and see if they jump in to help us. For example, If we have friends that we like to help with money, we invent some hardship that keeps us from giving them any money, and see if they will still be our friends.

Is your title a question or a statement? If you got money and willing to be emperor or water fish, then go ahead. You can get a kick out of it too. Just don't expect them to reciprocate and then turn all sour when they don't. Edited November 30, 2020 by FattChoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people do attach them to your life because of fame or money. You should stay out from those kind of people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Let it go Posted April 12, 2021 Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 Don't get close to people. Keep a distance. That way don't have to let people go. Cause they were never in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lean n mean Posted April 15, 2021 Report Share Posted April 15, 2021 Fact - people will come and go in your life, no matter how close and dear they are to you. The sooner you accept this, the easier it will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
