On being taken for granted
some things made me realize something i'd forgotten. it's important to treat "everyone" well in a general sense, but if i go out of my way for anyone, it should be for those who truly value me as a person. i think it can be easy to take advantage of people who care about me, or at least take them for granted. yet, i'll go out of my way or bend over backwards for people who don't care about me as much, just because i want to impress them so they'll like and appreciate me more.
i need to forget about stretching to impress people who take my good intentions for granted. on the surface, it sounds like bitching over no reciprocation from the one you care about...but i don't think it's just denial or being the "sour grapes guy". i gotta remember that over time, my treatment of someone should adjust in direct relation in how they treat me and make me feel.
