What do you do with someone like this?
Edited on Sat Sep-17-11 07:04 PM by Dulcinea
What do you do with someone who holds grudges forever for slights real or imagined, but never remembers (or just disregards) the good things in life?

1. Cut and run, if you can
I knew someone like that. They're a real drain to be around. Eventually I cut all ties after her ire was directed at me during an especially rough spot in life. Ended a lot of needless drama for the effort.

2. Let them go and send them light.

3. Four things
1. Look for a lesson for myself in the circumstances - I almost always find one.
2. Send her all the energy and love I can
3. Protect my energy
4. Gently point it out to her - as an observation, not a criticism

IMO people often don't recognize that we drag people down. Some people vent to someone they feel is strong enough to handle it, without realizing that their constant negativity is doing damage to the person they love and trust.
