It hurts!

Everyone likes to hear good things that make you smile.But what when you hear something earth-shattering that shakes your existence. Everyone deserves to be loved and respected.

When you are with someone who claims that they love you but is constantly belittling you, calling you names, telling you what a needy, insecure drama queen you are, and that you're the reason everything goes wrong, when all you do is ask to be loved in return. At that very minute, i just feel like taking to my heels, slam it accross to the their face, everytime something nasty comes out of their mouths.

Disrespect bleeds over into everything else. Jokes that aren’t that funny, making fun of appearance, of wants and needs – these are disrespect at it’s most horrible. Cursing for everything going wrong.

I feel if someone disrespects you, then probably you are not significant enough in their lives or else they would never hurt you by saying things that hurt so much. If you stand your ground, confront each occurrence, “That hurts” or “That isn’t funny to me” should be enough for a the individual to learn from.

If the person is untrainable or claims thats how the person is – that is disrespect. The person doesn’t feel you have enough status in their lives that they needs to worry about your feelings, your values. ‘Taking for granted’ is disrespect.

Will leave you with a wonderful quote from fiends, Rachel says to Ross, when he makes a list of pro's and con's of being with Rachel - "Imagine the worst things you think about yourself, how would you feel if the one person who you trusted the most in the world, not only thinks them too, but also uses them as the reasons not to be with you"

Heavy Duty quote!
