The Vicious Circle




I've had friends in the past but they were mostly self-centered and egocentric. There has always been one in every group and my tolerance threshold for these self-obsessed narcissists is quite low. And of course the others stay to worship at their altar and I’m cut out. I do better on my own, no friends no fights. Simple and uncomplicated, In any case, they really don’t deserve a kind, loyal and sincere friend like me!


It is pertinent to mention that I was a good friend to them. I listened to their rambling and complaining about random stuff and gave appropriate commentary at regular intervals. It got tedious and wearisome after a while. Downright painful sometimes, that’s how mind-numbingly boring it was.

These words do seem a bit harsh though as I am not exactly the paragon of magnetism or charisma! Quite the opposite in fact. The few friends I do have survived the onslaught of my crabby, grouchy and grumpy nature over the past many years.

  1. You really speak your mind, that's the best thing about you. That's for the contents. But the title sounds super-clever! :D
    Though our friendship survived more than a decade, I would have to prove that Im not a robot to publish my commentary. How ironic!

  2. me too having same problem now i.e.don't like my friend's gathering specially one of them has so much Nakhra that I cannot tolerate it,really it is now unbearable for me so me too avoid now friend's gathering and wish for a better one;of my own mentality. As much as I tolerate they increase their Nakhra and consider that as if others are inferior to them so they have to keep tolerating.

    1. I feel your pain! I have been through this numerous times. We are not inferior, so why should we tolerate?
