I don't mean to be a negative Nancy, but damn, things are getting intense! Good news though, I got paid today. I didn't tell anyone, cause people are like leaches when it comes to money. I don't want to go out and eat a $75 celebration dinner. I'm not exaggerating on that either.
I just want to say "no thank you" to spending every dime that I make on some skank. I'm being trampled on, and I don't dig that. It's not always a good thing to fall into the mindset of being a people pleaser. I was reading an article in psychology today last week, and I came to the conclusion that that is what I am. A people pleaser. So my relationships suffer because of that.
How do you break out of a detrimental habit if it's the kind of habit that makes us inherently human? It's like eating, you have to eat to survive, but if you're overweight you're basically killing yourself. The key is moderation. Same with alcohol I suppose. If an alcoholic avoids alcohol all the time, then the simple practice of avoiding the addiction will consume his or her life. I don't want that to happen to me. One must learn to pick and choose their battles.
