The right people and the wrong people


11 years ago 0 250 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
I have no real friends other than my husband. I don't trust anyone enough to include them in my life. It just isn't worth the risk.

The "friends" I had all my life were ones that came to me with all their problems and then would ditch me if I had any problems of my own. Very disappointing and hurtful.

Also when it comes to my family even I don't trust them as they are gossipy and cruel. So I guess if I followed what the dr suggests I would only be around my husband and daughter which I try to do. I feel safe around them and not safe outside of my home with strangers.

Hello members,
 
The following is a quote from Dr. Christine Northrup, a respected medical doctor that is a huge proponent of women's health and advocates the connection between mind, body, emotions and spirit in overall well-being.
 
"Stop spending time with the wrong people. Life is too short to be with anyone who sucks the happiness out of you like marrow from a bone. If someone wants you in their life, they'll make room. Never fight for a spot or sell yourself to someone who overlooks your worth. And, it's not the people that stand by your side when you're at your best, but the ones that stand beside you when you're at your worst that are your true friends."
 
Does this ring true for you? What are your thoughts?
