Walking away

By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

Saw a quote that got me thinking...

"If I've cut all ties with you, chances are, you handed me the scissors"

How easy would you find it to walk away from someone? Not just on here, life in general. Do you give second (or more) chances easily? Does it depend on who the person is (family or friend)

Can you walk away without a second thought regardless as to how close the person/people were to you? Everyone has a limit, do you know yours?

I wouldn't walk away from family. Others I have done and would do again.

I wish I was better at doing this, it most certainly would cause me less hurt.

I guess I do give more chances than I should but there is a point of no return, when I do get there then that person no longer means anything to me.

It is different with family though, I could be angry /upset but time gives both sides to calm down and I usually just let go of it and try and make amends

It isn't easy but when you're being destroyed from the inside out there comes a time when you have to put yourself first.

There's a difference between say an elderly relative who isn't making conscious decisions to do you harm and someone who claims to love you but won't step up their end and remain walking a selfish path.

Yes, I will cut ties.

Some family.

Some lovers and as I believed a life partner.

Sometimes you have to do it to give you both a fighting chance of a future.

I am very bad at walking away, which is problematic and causes me more pain than I wish it did.

I should learn, but it's more a heart matter than a brain matter!

Sometime you have no choice it’s the best thing for you....even though it hurts.

Sometimes it takes a few attempts but you do.

Family and friends if it’s harmful or hurting you as hard as it is you reach a point that you leave... and yes generally they have instigated the process or handed the scissors so to speak.

I've walked away from my father at the age of 17 and we didn't speak for 6-7 years. His behaviour was so bad it was an easy decision and one I do not regret.

But walking away from people in general I find difficult, even though I know I should I always hesitate as it's hard to rekindle things after

I cut ties with my parents and sister not long after I got married.

Not spoken to them in over 12 years now. A family argument over money triggered it

Moments have been difficult but in general 99% of the time it has made no difference

I give too many chances. Mostly to my detriment.

But there comes a point where I hit the wall. And my withdrawal can be as abrupt and as impactful as that metaphor implies.

If you're still thinking about it, you have connections.

Its apathy that indicates you can do it easily.

It can catch you unawares I think, and even the most robust can struggle. Took me ten years to get over someone and I'd still hate to be revisited despite me blanking everything since.

Without conscious effort, nothing fades easily.

I don't know that I've walked away from anyone. A few years ago I left a (non-fab) social group, but that was because I'd started to feel that they didn't want me around. They let me disappear without a word, so I suppose I was right.

It takes a lot for me to snap. But when I realise someone’s gone too far and it’s damaging me I walk away with ease and get my headspace back.

Sometimes it’s just a break required. Others will never darken my door again.

Many times in the past I've given too many chances and tried too hard with people who don't even return half the effort. Once I reach the point of quiting though there isn't any coming back from it. You've already had more chances than was fair.

I walked away from my mum, should have done it years ago she is not a nice person and my upbringing was horrible, however she crossed a line when she was horrible to my pregnant daughter and that was the last straw, no regrets Best decision ever, I wouldn't allow others to treatme like she did so it had to happen just wish I had the guts to do it years ago would have saved so much grief and pain.. Not an easy decision to make as I said to my daughter if some one truly loves or respects you they wouldn't speak or behave the way she did..

It would depend on what they've done. I'll nearly always give a second chance but if they were backstabbing or being cunty to me or someone close to me then they'd get it both barrels...and I'd cast them adrift without so much as a glance. That goes for family too. I'll never do a bad turn to anyone and I expect the same in return...and unfortunately I've had to cut ties with a few people over the years. Looking back now I've no regrets at all,it's their loss!!

Agree it's not always, if ever, an easy thing to do but sometimes self preservation has to take precedence. I've walked away from some and never looked back, knowing I made the right choice. I've walked away from other's, knowing it's the right thing for me but it's killed me inside at the same time. Heart and head don't always agree.

I've done this many times, including to my own parents. I don't need the wrong people in my life, I'd rather be alone than that. And when I walk away will completely shut myself off to them, any attempts to contact me will be ignored - it might hurt at first, but it would hurt more in the long run if they remained a part of my life.

I’m lucky that I’ve had very few occasions where I have needed to. It was painful to start with but I got over it.

I think by the time you get to this stage (especially when it comes to people you have a string emotional attachment to) you've already exhausted many options and compromises.

“ Radiators and Drains“

as someone said to me.... “Tell me about the people in your life and why are they there”

Radiators give off warmth and a fuzzy feeling

Drains ... well they just suck the life out of you.

I consider myself to be warm enough to give some a second chance ( everyone speaks/acts in haste/irrationally at some point in their life) but after that, if nothing changes I walk away.

I don’t hang on to ‘friendships / relationships’ if they don’t have any value. My family are a good team - we don’t fall out.

Really depends on the person and situation for me. I've walked away from family and friends, not easy to do and although I can and do often think of them, would not extend an olive branch. Not out of spite or anger, just that nothing good would come from it in the end. It doesn't mean I am unable to forgive, just find it is better to let go rather than carry the load of what could be, or how it should be.. If any of that makes sense.

Every emotion is temporary. As are cognitive processes such as thoughts and images

Possibly. That depends on the individual and the context.

But it would be completely understandable if someone leaves you feeling a certain way for a prolonged period of time, and repeatedly, that they’d want to change the situation

In the past year I've walked away from an abusive relationship and walked away from a family member. Both people handed me the scissors and for my own sake I walked away.

I'm at the stage in my life now where I'm done with bullshit and people being dicks. If they're going to act like that, they're gone.

"Saw a quote that got me thinking...

"If I've cut all ties with you, chances are, you handed me the scissors"

How easy would you find it to walk away from someone? Not just on here, life in general. Do you give second (or more) chances easily? Does it depend on who the person is (family or friend)

Can you walk away without a second thought regardless as to how close the person/people were to you? Everyone has a limit, do you know yours? "

Yeah I can. And I have done.

I had a friend at school, and drama followed her everywhere. EVERYWHERE. But it was never her fault. We stopped speaking for a bit, then became pals again a few years later. We were so close, she was my maid of honour. But as always, drama came her way. She would slag me off, but would gaslight me and convince me it didn’t happen, even though I had proof. This went on for a while until I had my third miscarriage. I didn’t want to go out drinking a week later, so she actually ‘broke up’ with me. And fuck, it hurt.

We made up again, but eventually I dropped her. When she asked why, I told her, but Jesus. I could see why drama followed her everywhere she went. She was always first to moan about people gossiping or making up rumours or whatever, but hmmmmm

I’m happy to say that I’m not really good friends with anyone like that nowadays. Or if I am, they keep their drama away from me, as I have no interest in it. Happy days!

There and to the left a bit

It very much depends on the circumstances and the level of connection some situations I can walk away quite easily, especially if it is someone determined to do me down, or who has shown just how deceptive and selfish they can be.

Others I'll hang on in there until the very last thread is dangling precariously, vainly hoping something will change or that things will work out until finally something has to be done to put an end to it once and for all or it just becomes an ever decreasing vicious circle.

In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon

I find it very hard to walk away once I've made an emotional connection, and I can be swayed back time and again until I hit breaking point.

Once I get there though I don't look back.

I do find it hard when people I trust and care about walk away because of outside influences though. That's the hardest thing and not something I can handle well.

I find it easy to walk away but I'll put a pause on it rather than cut ties immediately, sometimes something happens and people's Interest/focus changes. I'll make contact a couple of times later on but if nothings changed or it becomes one sided or toxic then the ties are cut.

Now if someone deliberately goes out intending to hurt me then they deserve all that they get.

Depends on my emotional involvement with that person.

I easily can walk away from anyone I haven't made a mental long term connection and I don't chase anyone either.

However, if I got involved with someone emotionally and I felt it was reciprocal... It takes times for me to get over it but more it happens, more I avoid making connections in order to circumvent the pain I get if that happens.

very easily.

its very important not to chase after a women or a men. because they will play games with you, keep you there to do things for them and put you in the friend zone.

they will seek your validation, have little respect for you and display narcissistic personality towards you.

im sure you have liked someone and wanted to get into a relationship with them only to find you suddenly get the silent treatment or felt excluded from conversations as things are going on around you.

but what happens if you stop giving him/her the supply?

they will come up to you at some point and ask 'why have you stopped talking to me?'

they never get you are on to the game they are playing and when it hits them that you are this is when the narcissist acts like you dont exist and if you get within ear shot they will make a rude commment about you in front of their minions to seek validation.

as a man you have to learn to never chase. it simply isnt worth it because if she dont want to be with you now she will damn well cheat on you later because you will be her last resort.

remember just because your with a woman doesnt mean shes into you, she will have many guys numbers and will flirt with by text facebook etc.

and this is why nice guys finish last, they are useless, a high value man doesnt stand for bad behaviour or abuse, low value simps do because they are scared of her walking away.

do not worry about being single, never worry about it. you will have more time to live your life man or woman, enjoy the money you earn and do anything you want too.

love yourself first be powerful and do not take heat from anyone.

you will feel better about yourself and not be bought down by someone's actions who doesnt deserve your time in the first place.

this is why so many people are now preferring to stay single.

you will feel better about yourself and not be bought down by someone's actions who doesnt deserve your time in the first place.

this is why so many people are now preferring to stay single.

Boom couldn't have put it better myself

Sometimes is it is the hardest thing you could ever do, but it becomes more and more toxic and you are trapped in a loop. The loop must be broken to find your happiness again.

I sometimes wonder how those stuck in a constant loop of repeating the same behaviour over and over, same pattern, cope with their emotions.

You know the friends..... fall out, abusive, make-up, clear the air, fall out, abusive ....

That's how some people like to live their lives, I'm like you.

Why bother, learn from past mistakes and move on without the drama it brings

I learnt money recently. Incredibly hard to do but had to walk away. My heart didn't want to but it was best.

Overall i believe it was the right choice tho I do still have moments of self doubt. They will pass in time.

I dont suffer fools or liars.

Sometimes you have to let the head overrule the heart, it's never easy when you love someone so much but time will show you it was the right thing to do. It was for me anyway

I like that quote. I have a friend coming over soon and that is very poignant and excellent timing.

I'm very understanding and forgiving AND -

"You can't uncook an egg"

Once I'm done, I'm done. I walk away forever.

"Saw a quote that got me thinking...

"If I've cut all ties with you, chances are, you handed me the scissors"

How easy would you find it to walk away from someone? Not just on here, life in general. Do you give second (or more) chances easily? Does it depend on who the person is (family or friend)

Can you walk away without a second thought regardless as to how close the person/people were to you? Everyone has a limit, do you know yours? "

Fully depends in the reason. If it's good enough...it matters not who they are. They will be dead to me.

"I wouldn't walk away from family. Others I have done and would do again."

I should walk away from family, but can't bring myself to.

Each of us have walked away from people when it got too much. It took a long time to get to the stage where we felt we had to but we've each done it and not looked back.

Yes, kinda, I have walked away from friends, family and partners and as far as they see I don’t give a toss but it still hurts me if I allow it into my thoughts when I’m on my own. I don’t give second chances easily if at all, maybe 2 to 3 times and I’ve had it proven Each time that second chances are a waste of my time. So I try not to anymore

I understand how it works in a relationship.

Maybe with friends they are too positive or trusting and see the good where there is none.

I only bare a grudge forever. Not spoken to my brothers in 25 years. Middle of a divorce that will see me cut ties again. Destined to be a loner with just a few people who get close.

Anyone else - as soon as I feel like you are taking the piss, to be fair.

It depends on what the person has done I am always one to give second chances to anyone but there has been a few people in my life that have done stuff to me that they would never get a second chance of being my friend but I’m the sort of person that of someone was having a hard time mentally no matter what they have done I will be there for them just the way I am

It takes a long, long time for me to be done, but when I am, that's it, I won't even look at you as I walk away
