I recently had a conversation with someone I highly respect and take what their advice to heart. When I was told that I needed to eliminate a particular person from my personal conversations, I was taken aback. My advisor explained how the friendship would suffer if I did not do as instructed. I almost didn't listen, until the other party and I had a conversation concerning a personal matter. As soon as the conversation began, they responded with negativity. I wasn't asking their opinion on the matter, but was just sharing. However, I immediately remembered what my advisor had told me days earlier. Later that evening I made the decision to no longer share this part of my life with this person. I was hurt because we always share every pain, success, joy, laugh, and sorrow. But I guess there comes a time that friends will have to be excluded from some of our life events.
