Chapter (3) Drawing Boundaries

1. I am sociable, but if you cross the line too many times, everything can change very quickly.

2. I am a very patient person, and I give plenty of second chances. However, I am not a saint. I also have my limits.

3. I do not give wasteful chances any more. The time you crossed me, you lost me.

4. I usually give people more chances than they deserve. However, once I am done, I am done.

5. I do not give up on people easily, so if I cut you off, trust me, you are nothing to me.

6. I am not upset that you lied to me; I am upset that I cannot believe you from now on.

7. I accept apologies, but I remove trust.

8. If I cannot trust you, I do not need you.

9. I do not hate you; I just lost respect for you.

10. I reward loyalty with loyalty and disloyalty with distance.

11. I am not antisocial. I am just sick of all the bullshit and all the fake people.

12. I only want one thing from the fake people: “Distance”.

13. I am not rude. I say what others do not have the guts to say.

14. I do not hurt people with a lie; I kill them with the truth.

15. I am sorry if you do not like my honesty; to be fair, I do not like your lies.

16. I would rather be honest and rejected than fake and accepted.

17. I do not even care if they like me or not.

18. I do not tolerate liars. I am a nice person, not a stupid one.

19. I forgive people for not caring about them.

20. Once I care, I do not leave. Once I leave, I do not care.

21. I have such a big heart, but once I stop caring, good luck.

22. I care, but I am done trying.

23. I am that person who sticks around longer than I should. However, once I am gone, I am gone.

24. The biggest mistake I have made in my life is letting people stay in my life far longer than they deserve.

25. My intentions are pure, and I have never done you wrong. I do not care if we never speak again.

26. I do not miss you. I miss the person I thought you were.

27. I do not need everybody in my life. I need a few people who truly understand me.

28. The only people I want in my life are the ones who genuinely want me in theirs.

29. Cutting people out of my life does not mean I hate them. It simply means I respect myself.
