MY STORY
I already made many bad experiences with negative people.
Most of the time those "friends" did everything for me. They invested so much time for me and gave me lots of presents. They only wanted the best for me.
But there was a price for that. I should give them attention 24/7, they always complained about their "hard" life. Didn't matter what I said, they just didn't stop talking about their problems. I could give them advice, but they couldn't be helped. They just didn't see that they can do something different in their lives. Yes, they were depressive and egoistic, everything revolved around themselves . I know from my own experience that you can do little things that are quite effective to push your mood positively. Everytime I saw them or had chats that lasted an hour I had such a bad mood after that.
When I didn't have time for them, they were so angry with me. Some of them insulted me and blamed me because they already did so much for me they always said.
It took me quite long to notice that they had too much control of my life. In each of this friendships I reached a point, when I really didn't want to be friends with them anymore. They really gave me stress all the time. Breaking off contact with them was the only solution.HOW TO REALIZE BEING SURROUNDED BY NEGATIVE PEOPLE
