This is a general question that I really need an answer to.
I apologize if I sound rude in my wording, it isn't intended as such, but it's a clear and present issue that needs addressed and I'd like it better from the perspective of someone who doesn't know the particular individual.
So, that being said, I pose the question:
If there is a person in your life that is there for no other reason than the fact that they are, or were at one point, associated to someone close to you, and you have a legitimate problem with them, is it wrong to "save face" and be nice, even when you don't entirely like said person?
I can be a bitch, I don't deny that fact, but generally when it comes to interaction with people I try to be as kind as possible, even if I do not particularly like the inididual I am faced with. I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, but once every blue moon you come across a person that rubs you the wrong way from the get-go, and I find myself in that position currently.
Said person has issues that are not entirely within their control, but said person is also aware of these issues and blatantly uses them as a crutch for everything that happens. For example, a wrong has been done to said person at one point in their life, and chances are you'll hear about this at least a hundred times- no exxageration- within one week. When you have a problem, their problems are worse. When something happens to you, they always have a story to top it. When you are positive, they will be the first to interject with something negative.
I find myself midly tolerant of repetition, because lets face it as human beings we all have at least one thing that has happened to us in life that is significant enough that it is never far from the mind, but to bring it up every other hour, (again no exxageration, this person literally does this as a day by day routine) is a bit excessive.
This is not the extent of my issue with this person, however.
Short of being relatively annoying as a "story topper" and "sobby Sally", this person is legitimately unusual to the point that it's borderline scary. I don't mean this in the sense of "unusual" like most people do, I'm not refering to someone who generally sticks out in a crowd, I'm referring to the type of person who, after being around them enough and getting to know them, you might suspect has a bit of a predator vibe to them. In more ways than one, really. This person attatches to the nearest individual and proceeds to somehow manage a vice grip on them. You know this person a week and he thinks you are either soul mates or best friends, or in my particular case a bit of both. If you don't give your undivided attention to them, you're a horrible person and a rotton friend. This person simply must be the center of the universe, or the world is a shithole and they "no longer wish to be a part of it".
Generally what I'm trying to say is this person is generally not a good type of person to be around, they have weasled their way into my life and I really don't like the fact that they are there, but because of certain circumstances I feel that I'm pretty much stuck having to associate with them and I really don't like it.
This, in short, is generally the reason I choose not to socialize with many people. They all become rabid stalkers and weirdos. 0_o;
