The problem with people is that they can make you happy, but overall they make you sad. That is the problem with people. No matter how happy they make you feel at one point, you will be sad just as often and, more likely than not, your sadness will outgrow your happiness.
i have never met someone who made me more happy than sad.
Last night I slept over at my friend Ks house. For most of the time I was with her she insulted me, demeaned me, and made me feel like shit. Every thing I did and said was picked apart and scrutinized by her. I honestly don't know why I've dealt with it for the past three years because the way she treats me is nothing new. The only compliment I ever get from her is that I'm 'pretty' but she only says it because I weigh less than her. She is the one with the self-confidence it takes to be truly beautiful, not me. I'm shy and self-conscious and the fact that she constantly insults me does not help.
My 'friend' A, who I've known for two years, is a back-stabber and a liar. From the start she has trash-talked me behind my back. Sometimes she owns up to it, sometimes she doesn't. She insults me and laughs when her friends call me the worst names I've ever been called. She find it funny when they break me down and trample my name. I've been called a whore, a freak, a pathetic loser, and much worse by people who once said they cared about me.
Don't even get me started on my ex. I think he was the worst of all the people I've met since I moved a few years back. After breaking up with me through a text message, he decided to trash-talk and insult me to his friends behind my back. Then he proceeded to trash-talk me to my face. But the worst stuff was definitely the lies he fed to his friends. The blatant lies he spread to put himself on a pedestal and lower me to the same level as a harlot.
And all these people said they cared. I've shared a few laughs and smiles with these people, but the tears and blood shed far outweigh them. The problem with people is that they can make you happy, but overall they make you sad.
And it's a problem we have to deal with all our lives.
