An old supervisor actually used the “I think we would be friends if you would…..” on me.
Are you freaking kidding me????
This isn’t kindergarten!!!!!
Pretty sure, if we weren’t friends before now, we sure as hell won’t be friends in the future.
Verbal words meaning NOTHING when there is nothing behind them. Why do people not get that I know what their intentions are???? Actions speak louder than words!!!! If we were really friends, there wouldn’t be a question.
Don’t tell me we are friends when we’re not. When I hear nothing until you need something. That isnt friendship.
I hate insincerity. So many people tell me so many things. So what?
DON’T.
You want to be my friend, then take an interest in me and my kids.
You love me? Then take the time to be with me.
You miss me? Then prove it.
You are mad? Then fucking come talk to me. I am working 80 hours a week. I am responsible for two kids and make sure around 70-100 people are taken care of every single day. Chances are, I either have no idea what has gone on, or I need you to be in front of me. Its that simple.
I am doing the best I can with what I am and what I have.
I think what he is looking for is a monthly friendship fee. Please don’t pay it! We all do the best we can. If they don’t like it, screw ’em! Real friends will find you if you give them a chance.
