Yep, I think everybody feels this way at times.. here's a quote that may be food for thought "life, like a mirror, never gives back more than you put in" How are they disappointing you? what are you doing for them, that they are not reciprocating for? Care to elaborate? |

It means you are reaching a crossroads of growth. Your mind is questioning your choices up 'til now and giving you a nudge that change is overdue. It's exciting! It's a gift! Open your mind to what direction you desire to go in from here. Your impressions will mean a lot and will guide you to your new path. Jennifer |

i'm struggling with this kind of thing periodically, meaning for a few months every couple of years or so. i consider it the time when the cup really fills to the point that it can take no more. i usually step back, take a vacation, avoid some people as much as possible and try focusing on some project. i'm still having trouble deciding if it's the world that's disappointing me or the other way around. |

Yeah, I felt like you did. I would trust someone and they would really disappointment. They'd end up not being the mutual friend I was hoping for or leaving me behind or something like that. It was hard because I felt like I was putting A LOT into others. I'm not naturally a girl's girl and boys just want to ****. It is incredibly hard for me to have a meaningful friendship. It hurt because I felt like I was trying so hard and getting nothing in return. So this quote Quote:
Well... I decided to just screw everyone for a while and figure out who I am, what I like in people, what people like in me, etc. I found that there were certain people who were reaching out to me, even in my temporary reclusion. Those people, I kept an eye on. I gave more to them. I started keeping anyone who reached out to me closer to me and reached out to them as much as I could. I eventually was better able to feel who is my friend or wants to be and who isn't. And I don't feel offended about these type of matters anymore. | |

I suppose another way to look at it, is if everybody kissed your ass everywhere you went and everything you did, life would be pretty boring and pointless.. and so the people who've let you down have given meaning to your meaningful friends.. | |
