Cutting Off For My Sanity.

Hello Hive learners community, somehow I kinda can relate to the topic for this edition, it is something that in one way or the other everyone has done one time or another, so here's my reason . So Yes, I have ghosted someone before, and truthfully , I do not even feel bad about it, the truth is , sometimes people just push you to that point where silence is the only answer left , for me, it was not like I just stood up one day and said oh, let me stop talking to this person, No it was not like that, I had been warning them about how I don't like the way our conversations always go , I am the kind of person that if I tell you something bothers me, I expect you to at least take it seriously, and not brush it off or repeat the same thing again.  But with this particular person, it was like talking to a wall, anytime we had conversations, they would somehow twist it in a way that left me feeling drained or uncomfortable , I don’t like negative energy at all, I don’t like when someone thinks conversations have to always be filled with sarcasm or words that belittle the other person, and the most annoying part is that, I had already pointed it out, I literally told this person , i don’t like the way you always say things, but instead of adjusting, they continued like it was nothing. That is where I drew the line.... See ghosting them felt very drastic, but at the same time, it felt like the most peaceful option for me, some people may think ghosting is wicked or immature, but let us be honest here, sometimes it is just the easiest way to protect your own peace , because if you keep explaining yourself and the person refuses to change , then you are just going to keep stressing yourself for nothing, Me, I no get strength for that kind wahala. Now, do I wish I could reverse it? No. Not at all , and I will tell you why, Ghosting, in this case, was not my first option, see I tried to talk, I tried to explain the reason, I even gave space here and there, hoping the person would reflect and realize that maybe they needed to change their tone or the way they handled conversations, but nothing changed , So, why would I go back now? If I did, it would only mean I didn’t mean what I said the first time, and then the cycle would just continue again. If someone else came into my life tomorrow and started acting the same way, I won’t even hesitate to do the same thing, I am not the kind of person who enjoys cutting people off, but I have learned that not everybody deserves access to you, You can love peace and still know when to walk away. Sometimes, ghosting is not about hating the person, it is about loving yourself enough to say, i don’t need this kind of energy in my space, because the truth is, the more you allow bad energy around you, the more it begins to affect you emotionally and mentally, and I don’t want that. Some people may argue that ghosting does not give closure, but let us be truthful again, not everyone even deserves closure at all, see If you cannot respect someone boundaries when they clearly tell you, then you have already closed the door yourself. So yes, I did ghost someone and yes, I will do it again if I need to, and no, I do not regret it, sometimes, disappearing silently is like the loudest way of saying, enough is enough. *** --- _{*Image is Generated with Meta AI*}
