Cancer/Scorpio729 | How do you get through to people who only see things their way?? Try to fix things or drop their friendship? |
NickiG | drop the friendship...they'r not worth it if they cant see others points of view....if they are a true friend then they will see the wrong they did and apologize and try to change ------------------ What happens on Venus stays on Venus -Nasa |

GypseeWind | Take a break at least, if you don't want to drop them completely. I had to do this with a couple people. I just told them that I didn't want to be involved with all their drama anymore. With one of them, the friendship ended, which clearly told me that she didn't value it, she just wanted more blood to suck, so to speak... emotional vampire and all that. With the other person, she came around some months later, and apologized, so you just never know. Sometimes people are so emeshed, they don't know their doing it, and sometimes people just live that way. You have to figure out which ones are which. Good luck, you are a sweetheart, you'll do fine. |
EverEvolvingSpirit | Drop the friendship. I've been doing alot of that since the beginning of the year, it's amazing how much your life improves when you get rid of unhappy needy people that want to unload their sh*t on you and go along their merry way. You're not needed until they need someone to unload on all over again. Ugh . . . to think about it really angers me, how people can be so damn selfish and not even realize it :/ |
Ami Anne | Drop,drop,drop God will bring you the people who are right for you if you open your hand and your heart. Let people come .Let people go. Be you. You don't have to be perfect. Learn from each person and bless them as they leave ------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man.

Deux*Antares | No man is your friend No man is your enemy Every man is your teacher. - old sayingIf you can't drop the friendship, try to focus only on their positive side. Your attention to their negative side feeds it more energy and will just reinforce what you don't like about them.

Lonake | Wow, i went through this.You can't. Stubborn lives and dies stubborn. No changing them. My trend is to drop the friendship. if I have to see them then I keep the conversation cordial and as distant as possible. |
charmainec | A true friend is willing to listen and is understanding. From personal experience, I drop those that cause too much negativity,it's draining. They have to be willing to change, you can't make them change.

Lyra | Depends what the issue is. Is it small enough to let go? Can it be talked about? |
Cancer/Scorpio729 | Thank you everyone! Dropping and moving on does seem like a better idea. Lyra: Definitely not small, it's been brewing for months. They're so insecure about friends and they have to be the center of everyone's life. If they're not, step back and watch fireworks |

Randall | As you progress Spiritually, it is the natural order of things that you will attract people more like yourself. Thus, you will also lose friends, because of the change in vibration. But a loss is a win. Nature abhors a vacuum. Metaphysically speaking, that means new friends will appear to take their place. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

Thanks for asking, from their perspective we're all good (we talked about it; no one said sorry) but I still avoid them. And everywhere I go people are expressing their deep dislike of them. I'm glad the drama's over. |
Randall | Glad it worked out. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you." Rebecca Clark |
Ami Anne | I am going through this.It is hard.You feel like you did something wrong. Maybe you did.Maybe other people did,too. Most likely,it was both people. It ,usually,is. When things don't fit anymore,it is OK,I tell myself. I think we have to open our hand to let people come in and open our hand to let them go. You can never squish a person like a butterfly, trying to capture it's beauty for yourself. Certain things won't work in life. Holding too tightly to others is one ------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man. He who controls his Spirit is greater than he who controls a city Proverbs |
