Bending over backwards for people and them accusing me of not wanting to help if I refuse one little thing or that I am asking too much for them to own up to what they are responsible for!
Yesterday... a request to pay his traffic ticket (from his bank acct though): Him: "Oh, please, I'm busy" Me: "Well, so the fuck am I!!!" Him: "I do physical labor, you sit behind a desk" Me: O_O *thinking* "you did not..." Him: "I'm sure it will only take a few minutes" Thinks to self: "Then do it your fucking self." Back and forth back and forth (he could have already done it at that point) BUT Nooooo, I do it anyway just to shut him the fuck up and quit his baby ass whining. He's such a spoiled fucking brat (youngest of 10 kids, no wonder)
Then last night he requested his sister's number from me so he could get his cousin's number (long story)... Him: "I called my sister, she said you can call her and get the number for my cousin, she needs my address anyway. Call me back with my cousin's number." Me: "HUH?" In the end, with me trying to wrap my head around the whole thing about why he didn't just get the number while he was on the phone and he give her the address, he concluded that I wasn't wanting to help... HELLO, you called your sister to get permission for me to call to get a phone number and give her your address then I was to call you back and give you a phone number that you wanted yet you were on the phone with her in the first place asking permission for me to call to get the number??
I THINK I'VE LOST MY MIND IF THIS IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE SENSE IN ANY RATIONAL, LOGICAL WAY!!!!
Then today... Something he needs to follow through with that "I" initiated (therefore, my back is on the line) and has been put off since Nov and I've got certain entities breathing down my neck as a result:
Him: "Can't it wait until early April when I come back?" (in reality, he won't be back until late April as it is) Me: "No, it needs to be done now when you get back this week" and I explained why this is of importance. He get's huffy and hangs up, calls back later to start up the conversation again: Me: UM, NO, UNLESS YOU WANT ME TO HAVE CRIMINAL CHARGES. Needless to say, that call didn't end well. So, I texted an attorney friend of his to explain the reality of things as he won't listen to anything rational I have to say - he doesn't think anything I have to say is actually what it is... Him (calling back): "Ok, fine, I'll take care of it just so you're not upset"
Doll, you know that your enabling him is what makes him keep coming back to get you to do this shit. When you feed the baby, they gonna come back for dessert.
Your reasoning of getting peace and quiet is rationalization. He knows how to pull your strings. Cut those strings and he won;t have anything to pull.
I have finally learned to just say no! They might get pissed off, but eventually, you won't have to deal with it anymore. Oh, I'm perceived as a bitch sometimes, but oh, well! I'm not doing your piddly ass shit -- no more. Sorry, just been there, done that. Ain't doing it again! They get themselves into it, they can get themselves out of it. Been burned one too many times.
Okay, so I see how I can be labeled as cold. lmao!
Enough is enough, though.
(I think that is the harshest I've ever expressed on here - but that crap just pisses ME off).
Okay, drinking when I wrote that. hahahaha! I will help people. Do it a lot. But, when I start feeling used or if they keep repeating their mistakes, etc. I will turn it off - and the above scenario happens.
