On Pride and Loyalty

Some people may call me proud. I burn bridges when necessary. Turn my back on people who have betrayed me. And I'm unforgiving to those who don't ask for forgiveness. It's not pride, I tell you. It's self-respect. I'd rather have few people around me than plenty of "friends" who choose to betray me, hurt me, and malign me. I know my worth and I'm uncompromising. You piss me off, disrespect me, become disloyal to me, you'd have to practically kneel before me so I can forgive you. I may forgive you, but I will never trust you again. So stop pretending like things are ok and we're ok. We're not. And pretending like we are will definitely win points with me. You might think I don't know the things you say about me. I know perfectly well how much crap shit and lies you say about me so you better shut your mouth. I'm the kind of person who does not deny my mistakes and wrongdoings. So when I say something is a lie, something is definitely a lie. Stop telling me things or warning me about other people. Stop thinking we'll ever be ok. Stop hoping you can…
