I hate this... Leave me alone. What is wrong with you people?! You don't add value to my life, in fact, at some point, you made me feel so incredibly small (smaller than I actually am) and insecure, and now what? You've come back for what? What can I do for you? I know. You want to tell me your problems, you want me to fix them. You want to help you find something, don't you know how to google? Google is my best friend... should be yours too. Why do you expect me to give you things that you'd never dream, consider or even think to give to me.
Yes, there are two types of people in this world Givers vs. Takers, Hunters vs. Gatherers, People who like raisins vs. People who don't like raisins, etc etc etc. I know I'm a giver. You know I'm a giver, but can't seem to see anything wrong with being selfish and taking all the time. Yes, it's my fault, I know. I should curb my giving enthusiasm, so that people like you, won't take advantage of me. But then, I'm changing for you. I'm giving again.... Catch 22 situation... or 27 as Gareth Cliff said on the radio this morning ;).
I'm venting. I'm not really mad. I just don't want you to think you've got the upper hand and that I don't know that you know that you're taking advantage of me. I choose the NICE way. I choose to be taken advantage of. I choose being who I'm naturally inclined to be.
And if you wonder why I'm not that happy to see you again, and if I'm not overly accommodating or giving you all my attention - please don't be surprised. I'm actually dying to scream "NEXT PLEASE", so I can meet the next inevitable taker who will perhaps, hopefully, take less advantage of me and my time and my niceties.
With Best Wishes, but hoping for Divine Intervention...
