I’m a pretty open and honest person. I do communicate as best as I can. However, communication can be a problem with those you have an issue with. Especially when they have no regards for anything that you have been telling them. It’s an even bigger issue when they don’t want to accept the truth and want an answer that they would prefer to hear.

There’s someone that I know who is extremely problematic. She takes offense to the fact that I’m not as personally involved with her as she likes or even demands. She’s also not a friend of mine and has tried to cause so much problems on numerous occasions while trying to force her way in to be personally involved. As well as refusing to take no for an answer and becoming angry about it. I do communicate with her as honestly as possible but she refuses to accept anything that isn’t going her way. She even goes as far as believing what I’m saying is a lie because it’s not what she wants to hear.

There was an instance where she kept asking me the same question over and over. I gave her an honest answer every single time. She fully heard and understood but would always ask the same question the next time she saw me. I would continue to tell her the truth but she didn’t want to accept it. She’s someone who literally argues with the truth. She basically wanted to hear the most negative answer to give her confirmation to run with to others.

She only accepted any little negative thing she could hear and disregarded everything else. She’s also someone I have always been fully communicating with over the years and tried to pin it on miscommunication for being wrong. When that was total bullshit and she not only has bad intentions but she’s delusional. On top of that entitled, disrespectful, and not a good person who claims that we’re totally friends. She not only openly did all she was doing but didn’t see anything wrong with it. Then tries to justify it.

Then there is someone else I know who continually asks me the same question over and over as well. She also refuses to accept it and gets angry. This goes on for a while as well. She’s also someone I have always communicated with for awhile. To give a better understanding of things I told her more than I should but it honestly never helped. The question just continued as I continued to give an honest answer.

At this point I think people just want to hear an answer that comforts them. Maybe a comfortable white lie. Even when it has nothing to do with them. I’m not sure I can do that. Distance and silence is probably best. Communication is not always key. Words are wasted on those who do not listen.
