Wise words from Presto

[A Former User]

I had a conversation/advice session with someone recently about letting toxic people walk away from your life and it just kind of stuck with me. For some reason, a lot of people, including younger me, had trouble letting people who you don’t matter much to, walk away.

I know we all deal with toxic people but I’m talking about those “Friends” in your life that seem to only support you when they’re on the up and up. People in life that seem to have you in their current setting but don’t seem to have you as a part of their bigger picture.

I’ve had a lot of people walk in and out of my life and for the most part, I can say I am proud and happy with where I ended up. I have said it before, but I have a very tightly knit group of people I consider my close friends. These are people that I would trust my life with, people who would be there for me in my darkest times, and vice versa. These are the people that should truly matter and you should never let go.

On the other hand, people who you fight with, people who seem to have their values out of order, and people who drag you down and hold you back from your potential because it benefits them? These are people who we cannot be afraid to walk away from. It’s tough sometimes to let go of things but in the grand scheme of life, we’re here for way too short of a time period to waste air and effort on those who would not return it with no questions asked.

I’ve made my mindset known to most people that I am very “middle ground” with almost everyone I meet. This is because it sets a tone, and a standard that if you aren’t rooting for me and my success, then that favor is well returned. I think that mindset is simply a part of me growing up and I hope than many of you can share in this thought process that not everyone’s moral values are the same, and that sometimes, those toxic people we keep bringing back into our lives just simply aren’t worth fighting for.

TL;DR: The unfortunate part of life is knowing that not everyone out there is rooting for you, and it’s important to hold people who ARE, closer to you than those who aren’t.

I hope y’all have a good day! 👍

I’m blessed by these wise words :

@CaptainPresto I even made a post abt that once., about unfairness expunged

[A Former User]

Wubbrle the amazing Wubble well, we don’t target people, that’s not the right way we go about things here.

But I just see all these people “fight” and then go back to being friends hours after. Or I see people who have no regard for other people, who would go out of their way to make them feel better on a rainy day.

When we get older we tend to see the bigger picture, it’s just nice to see that bigger picture sooner than later

[Youre_Just_A_Pun_To_Put_It_Politely.]

Wubbrle the amazing Wubble oh

[Wubbrle the Wubble]

@linoscatsoonie well i’ve been friends with them for over 1 year, the roleplays are good, but sometimes he acts like the worst kid in the entire humanity

[A Former User]

Wubbrle the amazing Wubble Well it sounds like you need to take a wider look and ask yourself if it’s really worth all the fighting just for that, y’know?

[Wubbrle the Wubble]

@CaptainPresto yk what you are right, you are a Administrator, you are an adult, you have experience in this, while im just some user on MPP that likes having fun and uhm, says dumb AND normal things sometimes, ok i will talk to him and tell him that if he keeps being like this, the friendship is Poof, gone, reduced into atoms

[A Former User]

Wubbrle the amazing Wubble You can do whatever you’re comfortable with in that situation.

But the point u was making was that you shouldn’t be afraid of hurting someone by walking away, when that someone doesn’t have a problem doing the same to you.

[Wubbrle the Wubble]

@CaptainPresto mostly its like this, i tell tippers to stop using …, like this “uh… hell…o…i…am…ok”, when i told him to stop ( i added a please btw), he was like … and trust me, ik him well, that means hes angry, and he uses cap locks, it usually always start like this, and at the end he pretends like nothing happend, and this happens very much imo

[A Former User]

Wubbrle the amazing Wubble Yeah, sounds like something I wouldn’t put up with

[Wubbrle the Wubble]

@CaptainPresto well, since you have big experience and stuff, is it better when i give his friendship one last try or should i stop being friends with him asap now? Ik its my decision but- yeah.

[A Former User]

Wubbrle the amazing Wubble I mean…

Me personally? I wouldn’t want to continue to be friends or acquaintances with someone who gets angry and frustrated so easily.

But I also advocate for giving people a chance to better themselves, so if you feel like he deserves a chance to prove he can be better about it, go for it.

But like my whole point up there, it’s about YOU and what YOU want.

[Wubbrle the Wubble]

@CaptainPresto yep
