what is it with people telling me that i'm too harsh on others? i just think that most peoples' standards of acceptable behavior have dropped so low that they think unacceptable behaviors are perfectly fine. here is my breakdown of what is not acceptable behavior in any relationship:
flakiness: never okay. if you have to back out of something for a legitimate reason obviously that is fine. but when you say you're coming to a dinner i've made reservations for and you don't show up or call it's unacceptable. when we have dinner plans and you have to postpone and you make a make up date but then never call or follow through, it's unacceptable. friends are supposed to be there for each other, not just when it's convenient. oh, and if i ask why you didn't show up and you giggle it off i probably won't be talking to you again. i don't think this is an outrageous thing to expect. you make plans with someone; you either keep them or call...period.
backstabbing: what the hell would make this allright? i can understand if you need to vent to someone about me. i'm an impossible person. i vent too when i'm angry. but when you are blatantly saying things about me behind my back it's unforgiveable. it's worse when you're doing that and then being all fake nice to my face. take all your faces and throw them in the fireplace. i have no use for them.
dishonesty: i just don't understand it. a lot of people have a problem because i am brutally honest. i would rather have someone who tells the truth that might sting a bit, than someone who constantly lies. what's sad is that most people are so knee-deep in their own web of lies they begin to believe those lies. denial is a powerful thing.
fakeness: i don't care if you are a bleach-blonde shoe whore if that's who you really are. be yourself. don't do something because you think it'll make me like you more. are we in the third grade? stand up for yourself and be what makes you happy. don't let anyone dictate who or how you should be. i'll love you for it, i swear.
okay, rant over. i am just so tired of people telling me i have impossible standards. those few folks out there that are important to me know that i do not. i just won't accept that idiocy is something i need to deal with. oh, and if you tell me i'm intimidating that's your problem. if you had some self-esteem i wouldn't intimidate you. whew, now i'm tired. haha.
