I was on Facebook last night and as usual Facebook is the club of over sharing and TMI
Facebook is a place where people feel the need to share
their most intimate pieces of their life with reckless abandon
The problem with social media however is when it's good it's
good but when it's bad or fickle it's BAD
the whole world or your list of
600 followers gets to follow your life and your life drama play out like a bad
soap opera
I noticed yesterday that a certain couple who I will describe
their past two years of their marriage as a roller coaster of breaking up and getting back together
Are now back together again which is great
But I have realized that the best advice given to me by not
just my mother but other very wise people is that you always remain neutral
when it comes to other people relationships
People- while generally young and immature sometimes break up get
back together all the time
some people maintain a high level of
drama in their life and their relationship and the
key to dealing with these people in your life is to remain neutral and be
Switzerland because if you take a stand on their relationship or on their
partner when they do inevitably get back together again you can't still be the person who is
hating their spouse because they don't anymore
It is nice to support your friend but that is a fine line-once you start bashing that person and then they reconcile-they potentially could turn on you because now you are bad mouthing their spouse who they are back to cuddling up to because there is nothing more persuasive than some cuddles to make the mind forget any anger once felt
And the other reality when dealing with these roller coaster relationships is that no one is being forced to be there, so if one party is complaining about their mate..they have choices..they can fix it or leave..and if they leave and choose to go back then at some point you have to think ..they must not be that unhappy or that person must not be as bad as they said
there are always three sides to every story, his side, her side, and the truth..and most people dont want to be totally honest and forthcoming about their side..
its ego, its pride, its perception
that's all
she may be crazy but they say behind every crazy woman is a man who makes her that way...and that goes right back to his side of the story and hers......
that's really all
not getting furloughed...just lost a bet...feeling salty now..creating juices just dried up
