Value
I don’t like the value-oriented mindset of relationships with people, but at the same time, S asked me something that stuck with me. They asked me why I was spending time with A, and I had to think for a while. The question came out of nowhere, and it stumped me. They’ve inadvertently treated me pretty badly, and also have not been a great friend, along with other things. I think I have my answer if people ask me what my red flags are – I do think I am loyal to a fault.
