Is there one thing that people or a person can do that will hurt you ? That doesnt really sit right with you? For me it's someone saying they will do something and then not doing it or taking about 2 weeks or more to get around doing it. If you don't intend to do something don't commit to it..I have been told many times "oh we are going to do this, we are going to do that.." It turns out to be a bunch of bs..:)

That would surely hurt!! That is down right underhanded and mean.. Friends don't do things that can in any way hurt their friend..so sorry if this has happened to you:(

You speak of a "profile" . Was this a public profile? Have you confronted her on this; asking why she was so bold as to flaunt a relationship with someone you care so much about?

I dont think she did it to be mean but she still had to know that I would see it and she knows how I still feel about him. I thought that was just really mean of her to do. About 6 months ago my relationship with my best friend was crushed because she slept with him and lied to me about and then blamed me for it happening. That would probably be the worst thing.

I think that anyone would feel hurt if they felt ignored..No one wants to be made 'light of' or ignored. Keep your chin up...God loves you.;)

It hurts when people assume things about me, yet haven't taken the time to really get to know me. You can't know the core of a person if you don't peel off all the layers and many fail to do that. In the process their perception can be very distorted and their words very hurtful.

You are so right Katalia: No one can be really understood and appreciated merely from "face value" ..Some people have rough exteriors..or their temperaments may be less "sweet" ..Usually if someone takes time..they can find goodness in almost anyone.

I have the exact sentiments. Do not say things you do not mean it. Once you make a commitment, please do fulfill it. I hate it when people break their promises to me. I feel very sad whenever that happens. Now, I learn to take what people say with a pinch of salt. No matter what, talk is free and people can say what they like and want. I only believe people whom I can trust. Another thing that hurts me is people taking me for granted. I am someone who treats friends and family very well. I will always do my best for them. There are some who had capitalized on that and made a fool out of me before. They are not true friends and I think they are very bad at heart. =(

I am the same way. If you're not going to do something, don't tell me that you will. I can't stand for someone to straight out lie to my face. That hurts my feelings more than anything in the world. Lieing to me is just like spitting in my face and I can't stand either one.

I know what you mean. I have had promises made to me..and by someone I really respect..Despite my respect, this person never carries through with what is promised. I have learned to take what this person says with a grain of salt.

I, on the other hand, can't say no. It bothers me when people know I am busy and know me well enough to know that I can't say no and they ask me to do things anyway. They are often complicated things, time consuming things, or such. It is like they don't care that I am loosing money or missing this or not doing the laundry, after all, I am getting it done for them! My family is the worst. They all no I can't say no. So, they call me up and ask me to do it. I even tell them after it is done, this has to be the last time, I don't have time to keep doing this. Which works for about ten minutes!

sounds like all my faults coming out here. I find it hard to say "no" as well.

My boyfriend. He would always say that he cares that he will do this and do that but then after a few days... that will never be the case. he would forgot about his promises and would sometimes skip it. I really hate the feeling.

I'm not sure I would discuss what people can do to hurt me, however one thing was calling my still born daughter. It doens't bother me when I'm called a bad father or it's fault things happen, yet to call a little innocent baby just to make me mad well that speaks volumes about that person. I'm lucky I know when enoughs enough, because I'm sure if I didn't then I'd be locked away. That's something I'm not proud of but those things shouldn't be said. ~Joey

I don't like it when people say something to me and then say it different behind my back. of course I don't always know, but doesn't mean I won't. Once I know I will be double face to them too and I wouldn't care less what they'll say if they find out. in time other people will know, and I will be there to watch and laugh when things unfold.

I don't like when people lie. Sure there are little white lies, like when you tell a friend "no that doesn't make you look fat" lol, but I don't like people who lie when they don't have too. My brother in law is like that. you could catch him red handed and he would have an excuse why it wasn't him. My husband and I have had some issues with that too. He would tell me a lie to keep out of trouble, but it made things worth. I would rather hear the truth then find out about the lie later.

You know, lying is one thing I really detest too. My father, who has long past away use to take me aside whenever I had chance to visit him and say: "if ever you remember anything: jodi: (he called me this) remember that there is nothing worse then a liar"

One thing that hurts my feelings it when people make fun or jokes about people with disability. I have never found that funny. That was one of my reasons to become a disability worker to help people with disability. Now I have a son that might (he as not been tested properly to say that he has it 100%) have Autism. When people make fun of other people with disability It makes me think what people will say and do about him and it brakes my heart.

There are three things that I absolutely can't stand...lying to me, breaking promises, and cheating on me. Those three things are ones that are very hard for me to forgive and forget, especially the cheating. I won't stand for that at all and that one probably hurts the most out of all three of them. If that happens, it's over for sure, but the other two just really tick me off and it's hard to forgive that person for doing that to me. God bless
