If it was just an acquaintance of a casual friend, I might allow it to go unmentioned & see how the natural course of events unfolded. If it were one of my close confidantes though, I would have to talk with them about it. I would want to understand & do everything in my power to preserve our friendship. I don't let people into that inner circle easily so I would put forth the effort, hoping that if I ever did or said something that put them into that position, they would love me & respect me enough to dig a little deeper. I like to think my "inner circle" keeps me in check & makes me a better person, when the need arises. One thing I will not tolerate any longer though is having toxic people in my life. While a close friend might get some warning in advance to provide explanation or make some changes, I would not hesitate to cut someone out of my life for insisting on being toxic. It wouldn't be the first time. It's sad & difficult, but it's far worse for me to let them continue to poison my life. I have high expectations for my closest friends, but none that I don't hold myself to as well.~**Dawn**~https://www.blogger.com/profile/06179560051128719637noreply@blogger.com
