Friendship can be quite complicated sometimes.
Especially when someone isn’t honest to you.
About a week ago I lost a ‘friend’ I thought I could trust.
About a week ago I lost a ‘friend’ I thought I could trust.
I am someone who is very loyal to my friends. I give plenty of second chances when someone messes up.
But when I am done, there is no turning back.
Losing friends is part of life, not everyone is supposed to stay with you. And that’s okay.
But spreading lies about someone to save your face and then lie about this as well is not okay.
It makes you a coward and an idiot. And I despise both.
It does make it easier to cut someone lose though. In my life there is no room for fake friends.
Life is hard enough without having to deal with egocentric people who screw up and then go pointing at someone else and whine about getting the blame.
Really, man up will you?
The point is, everyone gets to deal with this sooner or later and it just sucks.
But there is really no use to cry about it. People like this aren’t worth your tears.
And they’re certainly not worth losing your caring nature over.
You have to pick the battles which are worth fighting.
Just keep your head up high and walk away without ever looking back.
Spend your time and love on the people who deserve it!

Do not let a fake friend change the way you are!

Seems to be a lot of that stuff going around, I’m just sorry to see that you got caught up in it. It’s just such a waste of time, you know. And you’re right, you’re better off without all the drama and the lame games. When it’s time to walk, then it’s time to walk. Hope you are not feeling too crappy, but I know you are a strong one so I trust you’ll be handling it. You know you’ve always got real friends you can turn to, so stay strong, keep up the great writing, and will read you later.
Thank you my friend.
This is from a while ago.
I try to stay clear of fake people now lol 😉
Hugz & Love ❤
Hugs, Patty. We’ve all been there at one point or another. And you’re right, stay connected and soft and loving, otherwise they win.
Thank you Brenda!
That’s the truth!
Hugz ❤
I hope to write you a letter email tonight, Patty. YOU are a beautiful person with a true heart of gold! Your poem is right on! and One I should own for myself for reasons you know of. Thank YOU for your honesty and being strong in your words for all of us out here in the world! Blessings to you!
Thank you so much my dear friend.
I am looking forward to your letter. I hope your time with your daughter was wonderful! 🙂
Hugz & Love ❤
I love the honesty in your post. I, too, have lost some “friends” along the way, but I’m glad the true ones stayed. Hang in there ! 🙂
Thank you.
Wouldn’t it be lovely if everyone would just be honest? It sure would make life a lot more simple! 🙂
Hold those true friends close, they are worth more than gold.
Lots of love
Patty
I finally read it on the PC. This is one great post … right on target, FFL … means a lot. Never take that for granted!! I’m here … and I always will. That one who left, is not worth your time!! ❤ ….. Sad …. for them!!
Thank you so much sis. You know that I value friendship and loyalty very highly. I am just a bit pissed off because of that bs blog post he made. I just can’t believe some people! Smh.
Hugz ♡
Agree!! Did you expect any different, after you were asked to not write a post? That tells you who you are and where you are headed. You are ABOVE that!! Hugs … and love!!
FFL …. ❤
Thanks sis.
Although a part of me would love to strike back, I really don’t think it’s worth the effort. Let him play the victim all he wants, I will keep my head up!
FFL! ❤
And he will okay it well. To all his followers bc he only says his version. Hugs …. FFL
Hmmm actually he tells his made up version. Doesn’t have a lot to do with the truth. But he’s the one who has to live a lie, not us!
Hugz ❤
Indeed. Not even sadness, disappointment, let down …. Less than that. Luv ya! FFL …
Exactly. I can’t stand liars, but then again, how can you expect honesty from someone who makes up his own truth? Not worth our time nor our tears.
Luv ya 2! FFL indeed! ❤
You got that right!!! Making up his own truth ….. I think all along. Makes me wonder about Martin. Hurtful enough for M to slide down into the dep monster? Wow!
I will contact him later to see what’s going on. We will get him back on his feet. ❤
Keep posted!! BTW, spoke with Jane. Hope u don’t mind.
Why would I mind? 🙂
I am very glad that you have become friends! ❤
Sorry ….. Erase the one w name. I meant about fake friends!
Erased lol 😉
It’s okay. I am just glad that I didn’t introduced her to him!
Got me thinking, At least he was clever enough to not use my name in that bs blog of his. He knows that I have the truth on my side and I am not afraid to use that if I need to.
Check your whatsup when u can.
Will do ❤
It was about we talked about!! LOL .. done already. Hugs!!
I saw lol! 🙂
Hugz ❤
Hugs back!!! ❤ ….
Love it!
I know you know mio fratello.
Hugz ♡
Great post. I know exactly how you feel my friend. Take care.
Thank you my friend.
I am sorry that you know how it feels. It’s something you never quite get used to huh?
Lots of love ♥
It makes you more cautious with friendships in the future. Although I find that a lot these days seem artificial. But true friendship is always something to treasure. Lots of love
Very true.
But I am done with being cautious. Been there, done that, didn’t seem to matter much and I don’t seem to learn much from it anyway. But that’s okay because I don’t think that I am the one who should be learning. In the end, I will see who is still with me and who is not.
Hugz & Love ❤
You wrote a lot of profound truths in your well written blog. I can only say that you are SPOT ON!
Thank you so much.
Lots of love
Patty
You are very welcome, keep writing.
Reblogged this on It Is What It Is and commented:
How very well said! I need to share …. because it applies everywhere!!
Thank you for sharing sis. ♡
Always, sweet sis!!
❤ ❤ …..
Well you said it, people like that are not worth your tears. Just a dismiss and out you go on with you life.
Now that I think about it that´s why I live in a cave, even my dogs irritate me. So as far as friends go, in life really there are few friend for most people. I have a lot of aquaintances, people I know and hang out with. But I know, or people should discern the aquaintances and real friends. I have had good friend pull one over me in several ocassions, but when I look back and see all the good things they did for me, the things we shared together, the times they helped me out. Even though they pissed me off, when I put it in a balance, there where much more good things than bad. And everybody screws up, so once in a while I thought it was worth it to keep the friendship and as is turned out over the years, they are great friends. Not perfect, but great. And very few of them you will encounter in life. Just my experience.
You are right Charly. People make mistakes and always deserve the benefit of the doubt. People do stupid things and that’s okay. I am not perfect either, not even close.
But when someone crosses a line, it’s over.
When people are starting to play games and lie their ass off, I am done. I do not have the patience or the will to deal with that kind of crap. Glad that you have found a couple of good friends, they are a treasure.
Lots of love ♥
Such great quotes 🙂
Thank you Alex!
I thought so too.
Hugz ♡
Patty it’s disheartening when you discover this about someone you were close with. I think sometimes people that lie actually are deceived themselves and believe what they say is true. I’m so sorry you have been hurt by this and I know that you will always choose the highroad because you are kind and wonderful and a good friend! Hugs to you sweet Patty! ❤
Thank you so much my dear friend.
I actually have always taken on the fight because I just can’t stand people like this. But I am discovering that this is a waste of my time and my energy. They have to live with themselves and the fact that they lost a very loyal friend. Seems punishment enough.
Hugz & Love ♥
OH I totally agree with you! 100%. ❤ Hugs and Love right back to you!
I don’t know what was said or done, but I’m sorry your fake friend hurt you. I like your statement “And they’re certainly not worth losing your caring nature over”. Very true.
Thank you.
Being stabbed in the back is never a great feeling but the upside is that the ones who do that, are exactly where they’re meant to be. Behind you.
Lots of love ♥
Well said, you learned it the same way I did.
Don’t worry, it will pass.
Hugs.
Thank you.
I have learned this lesson before but I seem to keep forgetting it.
Hugz ♡
Patty, You said it right here, “By someone who has never been honest.” Seems you are getting a little older & wiser &, therefore, you view people in proper perspective &, hopefully, do not get too hurt too long along the way before you get wise to some people. Excellent “rant,” Phil
Thank you Phil.
It still surprises me how people can be this way.
I think it’s sad.
Hugz & Love ♥
