Some people don't come into your life to love
you, they come into your life to use you. They
don't come to bring to your life, they come
to take from it. They don't see you as a person,
they see you as an opportunity. Trust me, I've
been there. These are the type of people that
don't love you for you. They love you for what
they can take from you. They're not loyal to
you, they're loyal to the benefits that come
with you. That's why they never show up, no
matter how many times you showed up for them.
That's why they never offer help, no matter
how many times you've helped them. Like for
real. Stop breaking your back for people who
clearly don't got yours. Like I live by this,
you don't have to live by it, but if it's not
reciprocated, then that relationship has to
be annihilated. I refuse to be used. So stop
taking punches for people who wouldn't take
a punch for you. Stop keeping people in your
boat that ain't rowing with you. Stop being
there for people that always disappear on you.
I hate to say this, but it's facts. If they're
not supporting, then they shouldn't be important,
straight up. Just because someone is in your
life doesn't mean they want the best for your
life. So let me ask you this question. If your
talent wasn't there, would they still be there?
Exactly. If you were to get down in life, would
they still stay down for you?
If all you had to offer was friendship, would
they still be around?
I know you want their support, I get it. But
understand you don't need their support. I know
it sucks when you find out the ones you love
the most will sometimes support you the least.
I know it sucks to find out the ones you did
the most for won't even do the least for you.
But don't let their lack of support create a
lack of belief. Get around people who appreciate
your talent, not just want to use you for it.
Get around people who pour into your cup, not
just want to drink from it. Get around people
who want to help you elevate your life, not
just use you to elevate theirs. Stop keeping
these leeches, yeah leeches, in your life that
expect everything from you, but give absolutely
nothing to you. And I get it, you might say,
"Well, who's there to support me?" There's a
world full of people waiting to support you.
So don't let those that don't support you keep
you from seeing that. And I want to be clear,
when you remove these people from your life,
because you will, they're gonna try to paint
a picture to the world that you're wrong when
they did you wrong. But I want you to understand
this and never forget it. Never feel guilty
for cutting someone off when they handed you
the scissors.
