Guest guest Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 Once again ...boundaries...it's HER choice whether or not to be alone. she chooses whether to be friends with people or not...why do you have to be her companion? our behaviors dictate the outcome...if I treat you like compost then I doubt you'll want to be my friend...I make a choice on how to treat you and you make a choice whether you want to be my friend...I can't make you be my friend, that's YOUR choice. Then comes the attitude thingy....you don't have to choose to feel guilty about not being my friend..it was simply a choice based on your boundaries. You wouldn't let me come over and dupm my garbage on your lawn, would you?! would you feel guilty for saying stop, you can't do that...same thing basically. Btw, everyone dies everntually, what you miss are the good times shared with that person...nadas give us very few of those I think....or least mine hasn't.
