Drama Drama Drama Drama.............ugh. Over it. Why does it still follow me? Ever feel the same way? Its like one day you actually feel like an adult and then your bitch-slapped with gossip and profoundness definitions of characters. Does anyone ever sit back and think before they go run their mouth to others?
I will say I have had my moments myself. Usually I'm quick on my feet and can come back with something decent but occasionally even the best of us slip up. I just really despise the ones that just do it on a continuous basis. They live their lives around to trying to get as much information or dirt on someone and just jump at the chance to tell someone else.......that tells someone else...then they tell...next thing you know, everyone knows and its coming back to you. When things like this happen its almost an immediate reconsideration of your friends. If you hear something......fine. Have a damn opinion. If it doesn't personally affect you...then keep those damn conversations private and leave it at that.
Appreciate the fact that you can talk to your friends and not have to provide a disclaimer with every other word to inform that this stays between you and that person. Whether or not your thinking your doing good by opening your mouth.......doesn't mean that it is. Actually...99.9% of the time its not going to help.
Plus you have to have the one friend that is seriously the worse person to play the old school game of telephone with. Remember that game? You whisper a word or a sentence to someone....then they whisper to someone else until it gets to the last person and then the last person says what they think the first person said. The whole point of playing that game back in the day as kids was testing your communication skills. Well....we all have the retard friend that when we say, "I really don't like sushi"...but they tell the world your allergic to shellfish. See my point? I heard this example once from a friend describing a frustration they had. Kinda liked the analogy so needed to share.
I personally don't want to have to test the limits of a friendship. Right now I'm currently under quite a few of the biggest stresses of my life and I've shared limited with some...but still I put myself in a position that a person could misconstrued or go out of bounds of their new intel on me. I don't want to have to think about it...but its hard not to. Especially when you can still see the scars of the ones of the past that betrayed me.
So my dear friends, here is your lesson of the day: Someone tells you something juicy...go eat a piece of stale bread and that will be the end of it.
