Hi Friends,

In this episode I share a quote about one sided friendships. You don't need to have one sided friendships in your life, you can let go and it will be ok... "Stop being the one who always makes efforts. Relax and let the ship sink." By Author Unknown.

Hi and welcome to Timeless Truths, where we discover
enduring wisdom through the lensof classic quotes here on the
Classic Advice podcast. My name is Scarlett, your host.
Today's quote is this quote. Stop being the one who always
makes efforts relax and let the ship sink, UN quote.
And that as far as I could tell,which is all through unknown.

(00:24):
It kind of made me giggle. I have about the ship sinking
and whatnot because I actually did an episode in the backlogs,
if you can find it. I can't remember what number it
is, but about 1 sided friendships.
I have dealt with so many one sided friendships due to the
fact that I was such a people pleaser and I think today I

(00:46):
probably have a little bit of that in me.
I like, I really like being kindand sometimes that makes me a
little bit of a people pleaser in the moment, but definitely
not to the degree that I was. And I had a lot of relationships
and friendships that were one sided, 1 sided.

(01:09):
I always called first, I always went to their house.
I texted 1st and they were always very happy to answer the
phone and have me come over and hang out and do all the things.
I'm very kind to my face and allthat kind of thing.
But when I decided I wasn't going to be a people pleaser
anymore and I wasn't going to have one sided friendships

(01:32):
anymore because I got to the point where I was just fed up to
be like, why do I always have togo there?
Why do I always have to text first?
So I stopped texting. I just stopped and I've waited
and I waited and eventually months passed, years passed,

(01:58):
never heard from them. And then maybe 10 years go by
and all of a sudden they're messaging me, hey, how's it
going, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And I answer them and I'm like, you know, always happy to hear
from them. But there's something to be said
about someone who your message, they'll reply, you chat, you get

(02:21):
together, you know, you'll go towork, you know a week or two
goes by and then you get a message from them and they want
to come over or whatever it may be.
They invite you out to something.
It's not you always inviting them out to something.
It's the back and the forth and the give and the take.

(02:41):
That that right there. That's a true friend that
actually wants you in their lifejust as much as you want them in
yours. Do you have any relationships
like that, or are you always theone messaging first?

(03:09):
Before I let you go, I'll read it one more time.
Quote. Stop being the one who always
makes efforts. Relax and let the ship sink.
UN quote. And that was as far as I could
find by author unknown. You guys take care and we will
chat in a few days. Bye.
