We were friends
And I was there for you
I listened
I gave you my time
And my time was valuable
When your wife was dying
I listened
When you fell in love
I listened
When you felt like dying
I listened
When you dated
And dated and dated
I listened
When you were being deceptive
I listened
When you tried manipulating me
I listened
When you yelled at me
Called me names
Talked behind my back
And tried to break my spirit
I listened
But the moment you
Trampled on my boundaries
I was done
I don’t feel bad you’re gone
You lost a good friend
I lost some extra noise
I’ve lost many friends who didn’t value my presence in their life. Didn’t value my boundaries. My only regret… not having higher standards.

Excellent! Could be about me also… I guess a lot of us have been there done that 🙏❤️😇

Few, if any, of us learn those lessons in any way but the hard way.

You are so good. How unfortunate a choice that person made. Lucky friends seldom realize exactly how lucky they are. Today they’re grateful. Tomorrow they’re annoyed and abusive and critical. So long, chum buckets.
