Ya know, I know I have these very issues that your talking about, bashing or whatever, but try looking at it from the other side..... I have been working on these issues for years, and your right nothing anyone says or does can change how a person thinks or feels about themselves. I was working on my issues and was doing very well with them, Untill I found out I was being lied to for Three years. I'm not going to get into the details of what happened because thats not important. However, when you look around and see that no one wants to be around you unless your writing a check for something, getting them out of trouble or fixing one of their issues, you start to slide back in to the thought pattern that your really not worth anything. At that point you start to figure that its the way you look or act. Thats when you start to with draw from people, convence your self that its better for everyone else if your just not around to screw things up for them, and eventaully you just give up. There is only so many times that you can hear that you never were good enough to date, They just wanted something from you. At that point you start to believe everyone is like that. Thats when you start to hate People as a whole. Personally I'm trying to stop things before they get to that point, but every time I start to make some ground, and start to feel better about my self and my self worth, something happens that proves to me that I shouldn't have started to believe that I was a decent person after all, and that no one will ever want to be with someone like me, or a type of person like myself. So while your sitting here talking about people and the fact that they don't think highly about themselves, try to understand why. I'm glad you posted. Of course nobody should be treated that way. I'm very sorry that this happened to you. I do agree it can demeaning when people say such things to you and can spiral a person downward real quick. There has to be a point though, where you realize that it's THEIR issue, not yours. My advice hun.........for what it's worth. Stop writing checks and getting them out of stuff. Use YOUR money to take some lovely lady out on a date and prove to her you ARE worthy. Believe me, you'll get something back in return. Even if it's a good friend, it's sure worth more than the creeps that are using you. |

Oh, and just to clarify........I am the queen of self sabotage. I know what's it is like to have low self esteem. I lived it for many years. That demon is finally almost off my back and I'll be damned if someone is gonna put it back.
Get mad if you feel that way. Take your dignity back!!! |

I can't say if I would enter a relationship or not I might enter a friendship with them. I also would really want to know and try to understand why they feel that way. I also believe that you have to learn to love thyself before someone else can.
I think we all have hit rock bottom at different times in our lives we all have a choice on what we do when it happens. I have had some hellish whammy's in my life that made want to curl up and hide from the world and I did for a time but yanno you have to come back and fight. I think when I got ovarian cancer and I wasn't supposed to make it with chemo and radiation I made a choice then I have only one time around on this earth it is up to me what I do with it. I choose to live each day as my last and with no regrets. I make amends when I hurt someone, I laugh at myself and I forgive myself for screwing up daily. I also love myself as I know I am doing the best I can in this world daily. So therefore I expect the same out of others. |

Even if it's a good friend, it's sure worth more than the creeps that are using you. Theres nothing for you to be sorry for. I did it to myself. I allowed it to happen. As for understanding that its their issue, it becomes hard to feel that way when you hear it so much and from so many people. You start to believe it to be true. If it wasn't they why is it always the same. The only answer I can seam to find it that there is something wrong with me, and all I'm good for is running my business and bailing everyone out of trouble. I can't help it but after awhile thats the only answer. And what I mean by awhile is damn near 15 years. After that long you can't help but to become jaded. |
