im not a person who holds grudges.
im not exactly judgemental either.
generally speaking, i give people the benefit of the doubt.
i assume going into it, that they are generally a good and honest person.
usually, i find this to be rewarding because i dont judge them before i know them.
but sometimes, i get burned..
i give too many second chances, + i end up being taken advantage of.
maybe im too forgiving, or maybe im just blind, i dont know.
but whichever it is, there is no excuse for taking advantage of someone who cares about you.
someone you know has been there for you when you needed it most.
someone you know has been patient with you in your trying times.
someone you know has seen the worst of you.
someone you know has sacrificed something for you.
someone you know all this about, and still, you treated wrongly at one time or another.
someone who forgave you for doing so, maybe even more than once.
i dont see how someone can so openly take advantage of someone.
how can someone treat another person as if they are are expected to live at their disposal.
i wont sit here waiting. im not stupid, im not ignorant, + im not blind.
i know whats going on, + i know you dont mean to be such a horrible person.
but you are, and you need to hear that once in awhile.
so think about your actions, your decisions, their effects.
+ think about what you want in the long run, + how that may change.
+ i dont know, think about others + how they feel once in awhile.
maybe then your life will be easier to deal with
+ maybe then you'll be able to call yourself a good person + not be lying.
i believe that people can change, + that they do on a daily basis.
they change a little bit each day, progressing in one direction.
+ sometimes, they've changed into something that they dont like, or that others dont like.
+ thats when you need a big change quickly.
that when you need to introspect + re-examine your life + what went wrong.
so you can rectify your wrong-doings + make sure they dont happen again.
but it takes a big person to realize what they've done wrong.
+ an even bigger person to be willing to change, + willing to work for it.
so honestly, i dont expect a huge difference from you.
but i believe that it is possible, + i know that you can do it.
you can right what you've done.
but its going to take time + effort.
+ you havent been good at putting in the necessary effort in the past.
+ honestly, i think you're afraid.
i hope you do it for yourself though.
to prove to yourself that you can, + that you're a good person.
no matter what, i'm here to talk to or help you.
but know that this is what i think.
