SPOOKY!

So I know this has happened to me and a bunch of other people that I know.  The ghosts from your past always re-appear when things are going great (when your happy or at peace).  Whether is be an acquaintance or a past love, you ever notice when you're finally happy (single or not) that's when every haunted spirit you know wants to contact you, even the ones that were the biggest of JERKS!

These people never have anything edifying to say to you and they always seems to upset you.  I personally get furious with myself for allowing them to upset my life. I struggle with being The Christian and allowing the God in me to show through and wanting to completely lambaste them.  UGH! You ever notice they come to you with the most random things like

1. Updates on their lives. (like I care); I haven't called you in days, weeks, months, or years to catch up why do you think I care now.  What made you decide that this would be the moment that I would comfort you.  I know you got other friends.  Call them.  Frankly if we didn't end on good terms and decide to be good friends then it ain't gonna start now.  No I don't care about the accomplishments of your family members or that you got a promotion.  No I don't care that your appendix ruptured and you had to be rushed to the hospital. No I don't care that you got knocked up or knocked some chick up.

2. Get updates on my life.  Meaning find out if you have a chance or still have a chance with me.  ABSOLUTELY NOT!  Again, I DON'T CONTACT YOU! and it's clearly for a reason.  No I'm not thinking about you, no I don't want to go hang out. And definitely no I don't remember the good times we had together(if we actually spent time together in some cases) because guess what the bad out numbered the good when I decided to cut you out my life.

3. Talk the same nonsense they did when you hung out.  UMMMMMMMMMM!  Why haven't you changed? Why haven't you grown up? Why are you still so annoying?  Another reminder why i stopped contacting you. Sometimes I want to say, why don't you do society a favor and go stand in oncoming traffic on the belt parkway. I'm pretty sure you wont be missed by me at least.

4. Pick arguments.  What is that?  Why are you still arguing with me about the past and that was six months ago.  I'm surely not stressing it.  Heck I've moved on and your still griping.  I think you need therapy in your life is my answer. 

5. Ask for a favor.  HA! I'm sorry my good deeds for the year are done.  I maxed out the limit with my other friends.  I hope I was your very last resort and if I was then I suggest you do some soul searching and keep looking cause this charity is closed.

When you make the decision to separate from these people it's to better improve your life. So what do you do, you delete their numbers, throw out pictures and memorabilia, etc.  Because your moving on and somehow, someway cosmically they sense joy and peace and decide they want to disrupt it.  So I have a solution,  if they call, don't engage in conversation. Keep it short and to one word answers not even insults cause then that just gave them a reason to stay on the phone longer.  The words you should be using is YES, NO, I'M BUSY, and BYE!
