Being someone who doesn’t like to hurt people’s feelings is great, but it has some cons. For one, sometimes you get people who take you for granted, and walk all over you. And all you can do is let them. Because you care for them too much. There is one person in particular in my life that I continuously let hurt me. This is what I wish I could say to them.

I am not a placemat. You can’t just walk all over me, and not feel the least bit of remorse. You don’t have the right to pretend that my feelings don’t exist, or don’t matter. Because they do matter, and you should put them into consideration for once. I’m tired of basically being invisible to you.

Stop being so dang selfish. Think of someone else besides yourself for once in your life. I know that’s hard to open your eyes and see your surroundings, and see what you’ve been doing to everyone, but you should try it for once. Because you aren’t just hurting me; you’re hurting everyone around you. You’re being a constant wrecking ball to everyone’s life. You come in and destroy who they are and how they feel, then you leave them there. Maybe try caring for them instead of ruining them.

Stop cancelling plans with me all the time. Just show up one time at least. If you don’t want to hang out at all, then don’t make plans with me. Stop getting my hopes up, just to tear them down. Just leave me alone if you don’t want to be around me.

I refuse to be your punching bag. Stop taking everything out on me. Stop getting an attitude with me, when someone else makes you angry. I don’t want our relationship to consist of you being constantly angry and taking it out on me.

It’s always a constant battle between us, and it affects my life more than you can tell. Please change, for me. I love you, but I don’t love the person you are becoming. Just go back to the old you. The you that I love. The you that was happy and laughing, and never let me down. Don’t let life turn you into a bitter person.

That is what I wish I could say.
