Re: Dear Curezone friends
poeple like this are in your life for a reason, they are there to teach you to address certain issues that you need to address.
here's how you might have replied to some of this - " you coulnd't sleep because my oven was dirty? well that's quite amusing, imagine all the other ovens in the world that are dirty, i am surprised you sleep at all. but if you want ot clean my oven, go ahead, clean my bathroom and basement while your at it."
"i am sorry i can't take care of your kids today, my back hurts. i would normally be very happy to, but toady its impossible, i'll let you know when i feel better"
"no tonight is not a good time to come over, it just own't work out."
the point is that someone just like her will be pushy and annoying and get you to do what they want if you allow them to. you have to stand up for yourself and learn to say "NO" its okwy to say no, its okay to say "you may want me to do that but i really don't have the resources so i am saying no." you are allowing others wishes and desires to override your own better judement. you should not do that.
learn to love and stick up for yourself, you are worth it, you are a good person, a a beautiful person, a worthy person, and deserve to have people treat you with respect, sometimes you have to DEMAND that others treat you with respect, thats okay, you usually only have to do it a few times and they get the message.
