With some recent events in my life that I won’t go into details about, I am left wondering who has the better judgement, when it comes to issues or actions concerning myself. I am a woman of 38 years. I have more life experence than some.
I personally thought that I was the one that had the best judgment regarding me. Yes I know that I have made mistakes in the past. But what I have learnt from those mistakes I take that lesson with me on my life journey. Yet a friend feels that their judgment is right and that they are trying to protect me and see that they have done no wrong.
When ever I feel that my friends may be taking a risk, I talk with them, I give them advice. But what they do with that advice is up to them. I don’t go around making unsubstantial accusations without any concrete evidence, and with what they so called was evidence was nothing but words with out any malice in them.
But I have to ask this, if someone is taking time to asses the situation, and not running full steam ahead into uncharted waters and thinking about all the consequences that this one decision may impact on other. Then shouldn’t it be up to me what direction I take.
I would have thought so, however this friend, seemed to make it their duty, to not only step in and instigate trouble. But to also involve other people into the situation, which has now put me into an awkward position with the third and forth party involved. All this done, because of so called concern for my safety, and all on the word of a complete and utter strange that they didn’t know.
Yet this friend and I have known each other for over 3 years, and I felt we had built a great friendship in that time. But in their actions, I have now lost complete and utter trust in this person. Not only did their interference cause me to question our friendship, but has also destroyed two other friendships, because of it.
Nevertheless this friend keeps saying it is all for the best of my safety because they felt I was in danger. However, I wasn’t about to stand in the middle of a busy road, hoping that I wasn’t going to get hit by the passing traffic. I was taking my time and going over all my options, finding the safest route to take, with the less minimal damage.
It saddens me that it has all ended like this. Because now, of all times in my life, I have now lost 3 more friends, but I can at least know that this wasn’t my doing. And the loss of these friends was not caused by death, they will continue on with their lives. I guess it just means that I am no longer in them. And they are the ones that are going to miss out on having me as their friend and not the other way around;
I AM NOT TAKING THE BLAME ON THIS ONE.
Beware of a forked tongue it may come and bite you when you lest expect it.
