I'm Done

Perhaps it was 20 years in sales that conditioned me to be nice to people that are well, just not nice people. Or maybe it is that there are what I call "comedically challenged" people (actually i borrowed this phrase from the husband of a friend of mine, I love it though) that just can only see the serious side of life and can't have a good laugh to save themselves. Whatever it is, I am not going to do it anymore, that is, be nice to people that are not nice to me. I have had it!

I have been guilty of befriending those people that no one else wants. I used to think that there were redeeming qualities in everyone. It may be true but too often the poor qualities of an individual outweigh any redeeming qualities they may possess. People will use you up, suck you dry of your niceness. It has taken me years to realize this. Too many years. I am done with the niceness sucking people that only want you to be as miserable as they are.

It's enough already! I am too old to put up with miserable, immature, niceness sucking people. I am so done.

Whew! feels good to get that out.
