Broken friendship

(Edited)

I haven't written in this beautiful community for a long time, from my friend @wesphilbin, and I love that these weekly initiatives now exist. I invite @mercmarg and @yessi08 to participate in this beautiful activity. Here I share this week's invitation, which corresponds to number 4

This week's question is: Have you had to walk away from a friendship to preserve your inner peace? Describe the factors and reflections that impacted this decision.

Throughout life, we are always constantly evolving. I believe that human beings are not always the same, we change as a result of our experiences (good or bad). When we change, it is quite possible that we also modify the way we relate to our friends, and this is where the quality of the friendly bond becomes important, because if we value friendship, we can adapt to the changes that one or the other experiences.

Since what determines the continuity of friendship is the quality of the bond, we often have to distance ourselves from those we considered friends, because we discover and understand that friendship is not reciprocal. From my personal experience I will say that, on some occasions, what has led me to walk away from a friendship (definitively) is the loss of trust, the realization that there really was no reciprocity in the relationship, that no matter how much I gave myself, what I gave was not appreciated, but despised or worse still, used for the benefit of the supposed friend.

Loss of respect has also been a reason for me to end a friendship. If there is no respect, there is no appreciation and, therefore, there is no friendship, because friendship implies appreciation, valuing the other person. It's not worth waiting for a relationship to mend itself when it reaches a point where respect is lost. The greatest respect, the greatest loyalty must be first of all towards oneself.

And finally I will say that it is better to be alone than in bad company, especially when we see that the person we considered a friend loses his values and principles, or perhaps, we realize that he never had them, and that maintaining the supposed friendship It was for simple interest and benefit. Our own peace, our own tranquility are invaluable, they are priceless, and it is better to first appreciate oneself than to appreciate another and dedicate valuable time to those who do not value what we give them.

Here I end my post today, where I have reflected on an important topic in the life of every person, such as breaking a friendship in order to preserve our own peace. Hugs!

I agree. Losing yourself because of the so-called friendship is not a friendship at all. 😊

Hi @fixyetbroken

Thanks for your comment. Yes, the most important loyalty and appreciation is towards oneself, not towards someone who does not value us.

Greetings!

Hello, dear soul! What a simply beautiful post you've created. I know my guidelines might be considered "too strict" by some, But, I feel that a job worth doing... is a job worth overdoing . It is obvious to me, that your words are not just random; you've obviously experienced the energy that you expressed with your words. This mindset gets even harder to deal with. When it just so happens these "friends" are your family. All we can do is take a big breath... wish them well... and continue to live our best lives. Thank you again for stopping by, and showering us with your positive energy. Also... thank you So Much, for your kind Delegation to our Curation Account!

Love and light! Have a great weekend!

Oh! I missed this super comment, I feel happy to publish in this beautiful community, and yes, it is necessary that you be demanding, because when human beings are demanded at the same time, they are given, just as you do in this niche, they give the best of them.

Unfortunately, when friends betray us, not only does the betrayal hurt, but all the time, hope and dreams shared, and yes, they let go and we wish them the best, but we also ask God and the Universe to give them that corresponds by action-reaction.

My delegation is small for now, I hope to increase it, your community is very beautiful and deserves support.

Hugs my dear @wesphilbin

Hello @sirenahippie thank you for these nourishing reflections product of your existential transit. We flow, in dynamism, applicable to all spheres and spaces of our living, it is a rhythm sometimes dazed in its speed, but we must join or be in tune, because we are part of it. Everything changes and transforms, that is evolution. Unconditionally we love, value and are at the requirements of our friends, without discrimination, with lights and shadows included. However, there must be bidirectionality in the interaction. When it dents, disappears or has never existed, it is appropriate to be grateful for the time spent and contributed to our growth and continue, opening us to new dawns, which will always be with the window open to receive us and enrich us with their light and wisdom. Thank you for your nutrients, which comfort and nourish the being. Happy weekend, health and wellness !LUV !LADY

Hola @sirenahippie, gracias por estas nutridas reflexiones producto de tu tránsito existencial. Fluimos en dinamismo, aplicable a todas las esferas y espacios de nuestro vivir, es un ritmo en ocasiones atolondrado en su celeridad, pero debemos sumarnos o estar en sintonía, porque somos parte de él. Todo cambia y se transforma, eso es evolución. Incondicionalmente, amamos, valoramos y estamos para nuestros amigos, sin discriminación, con luces y sombras incluidas. Sin embargo, debe haber bi direccionalidad en la interacción. Cuando se abolla, desaparece o nunca ha existido, es oportuno agradecer el tiempo otorgado y aportado a nuestro crecimiento y continuar, aperturándonos a nuevos amaneceres, que siempre estarán con la ventana abierta para recibirnos y enriquecernos con su luz y sabiduría. Gracias por tus nutrientes, que reconfortan y alimentan el ser. Feliz fin de semana, salud y bienestar.

What a nice and complete comment @mariluour! Well, it couldn't be better said, unconditionality must be reciprocal, that story that one must give and give and give without limit, is a bad story, made by selfish people, who only like to receive and not give. And of course, the time shared and the experiences and learnings are appreciated, but it is better to close cycles and continue. Have a beautiful Sunday.

Greetings.


¡Que bonito y completo comentario @mariluour! Pues mejor no se puede decir, la incondicionalidad debe ser recíproca, ese cuento de que uno debe dar y dar y dar sin límite, es un cuento mal echado, hecho por egoístas, que sólo les gusta recibir y no dar. Y claro, se agradece el lapso de tiempo compartido y las vivencias y aprendizajes, pero mejor cerrar ciclos y continuar. Que tengas un hermoso domingo.

Saludos.

I once distanced myself from my friend because of an argument. but, when we finished arguing and didn't contact each other for a while, then came back feeling better.

Hi @aswita

Sometimes estrangements occur that can be overcome, but on other occasions the failures are so serious that the relationship is damaged and it is best to let it go. I'm glad you kept your friendship with your friend. Thanks for comment. Greetings.

Hi @yessi08

Yes, this initiative is in force, I think until Thursday, then another one will be called. If you do not participate on this occasion, you will be able to do so in the future, in the next initiatives (which have different themes).

Greetings.

You have shared some really valid reasons for walking away from some friends. It's not easy to do, but it is important that we take care of ourselves, first and foremost. xx

Yes, it is important to take care of ourselves, and never put the interests and comfort of someone who does not value us, above our well-being. Thanks for stopping by to read and comment. Hugs!

Friendship is a really interesting topic, when we are teenagers we give everything for it...as each one goes into what he/she really wants, we start to see the changes. Sometimes it hurts but it is better to walk away, I did it with several people....

Greetings

Thanks for the invitation

Loss of respect and trust in a relationship is a big red flag and should not be overlooked,
We shouldn't allow a friend to disrespect us just because we want to build a supposed relationship.

I really like your boldness knowing when and how to stop if what you expected is not forthcoming. Most of us lack such boldness, keep it up.

Dear beloved Hive creator,

Coding poet Gudasol here to support you sharing your art + life on Hive.

As a fellow creator, I know how hard it is to get the word out there.

I built cXc.world to help creators like us get more support from the blockchain community + beyond.

Bad news: Saying see you later to Hive! 👋

We didn't get the needed support to continue cXc.world on Hive, as our DHF proposal lacked votes, but [Good News Everyone] cXc.world will add a Markdown copy button, allowing you to easily share your music + music you find on Hive.
