Ok I just have to blog about this because I am really annoyed. No attempts at being witty here, just a complete purge and expression of emotion about some stuff.
I was really good friends with a couple of people and they very suddenly cut me out of their lives. I don't know why. They have not only deleted me from facebook, but blocked me as well. I haven't spoken with them in a few weeks, and the last time we were speaking, it was to plan a trip to get together. I have no idea where this could have come from. I texted them to ask what was up, to no avail. I respect their decision (although I am completely baffled), but i am really put off by the fact that they just completly cut off contact. Who does that? I mean seriously, I am still fb friends with the guy who didn't have the balls to fire me, and his posse--and these alleged friends, people who I considered among my closest friends at one time (though we have admittedly grown apart, but due to time, other commitments and distance), can't even say 'hey larissa, we have a beef with you about x?' What the fuck is wrong with people today?! What it comes down to is that my feelings are hurt. I hate that.
Beef number 2: I am currently observing a situation in my job where my client's soon to be ex is acting extremely manipulative, is calculating and a bit nutty. I can see it a mile away. Everyone can, including my client. The ex is just rotten and in my opinion, as mad as a hatter. Lately, I have purged a few people like that from my life (both personal and professional), and the more I deal with people like that, the quicker I become less tolerant, and dare I say, quicker to purge them from my life. I used to be SO tolerant and forgiving and understanding of people's behaviors, quirks, etc. I think i still am. I am still nice and kind and accepting But I just can't do bs anymore. I can't take excuses, lies, bullshit. I'm sick of being burned. I am sick of people who burn others. The minute I smell even a hint of any of that, it's like I transform into an angry and hungry velociraptor. I hate that. Because of my ever-shortening fuse, I feel like i am combatting two natures within.
I guess the moral of the blog tonight is: I just don't get why people think it's okay to act the way they do sometimes. Whether it be by sense of entitlement or by virtue, I am just fed up with shitty behavior. >:/
I think he christmas season will do me some good this year. Nothing like a little Christmas Spirit to make you feel good.
And you know what else pisses me off? The fact that I even wrote a blog about how someone deleted me from FB in the first place. GAH! Absolutely abhorrent. BLEGH!
ReplyDeleteI hear you. I had a friend in college, we were really close for years after...as in, I visited her all over the country. Then, a few years ago, she just stopped answering my emails. On my 33rd b-day, I got an email (responding to mine on hers) saying, let's catch up in July. As you know, I turned 33 in June 2010. It's now November 2011. No response. So I gave up and de-friended her on FB. It's sad that someone who meant so much to me is out of my life but I won't be treated that way. I don't know why people need to be jerks. You don't deserve it, and neither do I. That's what we need to remember -- not to take less than we deserve. That goes for everyone.
