I agree that think of yourself more now . My counsellor said some people can be drains and others radiators ! I avoid the drains now and feel so
Much better x

Hi Lonely,
I love your tactics. I have done those as well. Not answering the phone then seeing who it is. I love it.
Some people can be so pushy and being on your own sometimes is the best option. I think we also pick up on every little detail say and realise now how petty and pathetic they are.
I have had my fair share of so called friends. Now I just prefer to be on my own. Well my husband and I and my 28yr old son when he is home. Don’t need anyone else.
I also changed my telephone number when my mum passed as that stopped a lot of texts. Texts come over quite blunt at the best of times so it was the best option . I had quite a few pushy texts around the time of making the funeral arrangements and found myself getting upset over a text can you honestly believe. Mum had a lot of friends that she met over the years and when she passed many of them got in touch with me asking all sorts of things which were not appropriate. Luckily I was strong enough to deal with the texts and them but vowed after the funeral that would be it as they would want to know what was happening to mums house etc. It has been the best thing changing my mobile so as I live 35 miles away from mums house they cannot reach me .
Anyway hope you are doing okish
