This is a venting blog, so if you'd rather not hear me vent at the moment, please go ahead and click off of this blog, because I'm harboring a lot of anger at the moment. And just to be clear, nobody who is actually a regular reader of this blog has anything to do with the contents of this blog. K? Always, when I read venting blogs, I'm like... omgosh, is she talking about meee? And the answer is NO. I promise. Not you.
This what I'm DONE with... ONE WAY friendships. ONE WAY business dealings. ONE WAY ANYTHING. If all I'm doing is giving and offering and being nice and all you're doing is taking, taking, and being shady, then... WE. ARE. DONE.
I cannot wait for Tony to return here so that I know that someone in this town is actually real, genuine, and loving. And let me step back a few real quick.. my mom... my grandma... are definitley these things... other family members are mostly these things... some friends (I use that term loosely, as I'm pretty sure that "s" is questionable) are mostly these things.
I am working now. Most of you know this. And each thing I do is one step closer to having my family reunited, one step closer to being WHOLE again. So, when I've been a friend of yours for several years and everytime I talk to you, I'm as nice as I can possibly be and do nothing but offer to help you, support you in any way I can ANNND I support your family by being an avid customer of your business for over a year and then you do the exact opposite for me... that is NOT okay. We are DONE. I HATE (and I know that's a strong word, but it's EXACTLY how I feel at the moment) when people treat others this way. Do NOT pretend to be my friend if you are really a snake in the grass. If you only call me to have something to talk "about me" behind my back, DO NOT call me. If you are not a supporter of me, DO NOT expect me to be a supporter of you. Because I am done being treated as if I'm unworthy of real relationships.
My friends from this point on are the people who treat me with the same dignity and respect as I treat them.
THE. END.

Amen sister.
It's soooo hard to think that you've got friends for the RIGHT reasons and their your friends for all of the WRONG ones.... it's a major sense of betrayal. I don't blame you for being so frustrated/mad/p.o.ed/heartbroken
hope things work out soon!
Candace, I'm applauding for you right now. I let myself get walked all over and taken advantage of sometimes too, and sometimes it just HAS to stop. Yay for you standing up for yourself! You deserve the best!
I am sorry girl! I read often enough on other blogs and I completely understand what you mean. I have been feeling the same way lately! It is good to vent. I read somewhere writing to vent builds immunity T-cells... so rant and rave all you wish!
You sound like you could use a hug!!! I'm sorry you've had a rotten experience, I'm sorry your friendships feel so one-sided lately. I've been there. Chin up! There are good people out there, and some of them have bad days too... Love Ya!
P.S. This is totally off topic, but we're freezing out here! Highs in the 60's, raining every day -- in the moutains it was in the high 30's at night! Spread the wealth, we need some summer time heat here! : ) I want nothing more than to come float in your pool in the sunshine!
A.M.E.N!!!!! Good for you!!!!! I'm glad that you got that all out there, do you feel better about it now?!?!
You are TOO good of a friend and person to accept anything less of someone else!
I know we have talked about this before, and I am glad that your sticking up for yourself and no long allowing people to walk all over you.
Love ya girl!!!!!
