One thing that has been happening to me while being in therapy is that I am noticing I can't/won't tolerate the people who have been in my life that have not a damn thing to offer. In the past I would socialize with people I really did not like or want to be with because I did not want to be alone; but now I would rather be alone than waste time with shallow people with no depth. People who have nothing that would enhance the relationship. Granted, it does not feel that great being alone a lot, but I cannot withstand dopey, shallow people who walk around with their head up their a*s. Can't do it! They have no desire to grow or expand their minds. They are driven by materialism, pretense, gossip, etc. It feels good to release them and walk in a more fulfilling direction. I just hope I will find some good people to bring into my life. Working on it! Wondering if this is happening to other too.
