Committed

This will be mostly a ranting post and may be deleted at a later time. But for now...

When someone makes a commitment, what does that mean? The dictionary gives a few definitions but one that sticks out is this "A pledge to do something". When someone makes a commitment to another person, they are saying I pledge to do this. Just like wedding vows, two people pledging their love for one another and saying I will stick with you through all the crap that may come no matter what.

What happens when that pledge is broken? What should one do? If someone makes a commitment and then breaks it, what should happen next? Right now I am livid. This week has been pretty crappy as is, and topped off with added stress of the break-in and vandalism to my car, my grandpa being in the hospital, I thought it wouldn't get worse. And funny enough it did just a little bit ago. I'm not going to say much because I haven't been able to talk to this person about the situation. But in a nutshell, a promise, a commitment was made to me about honesty. That commitment was broken and I'm pissed.

I don't understand why people feel the need to lie to me. Or not tell the whole truth to me. I would respect people and trust people a lot more if they just stopped lying. Yes, the truth may hurt and people may have their hearts broken and hopes shattered, but in the end isn't that better than lying and leading people on? If you are my friend, then why in the world would you feel the need to lie to me? Or to not tell me certain things? I'm a big girl, I can take it...I've dealt with a lot more pain than you know. I've dealt with a lot more heartache than you will ever know.

I'm out....

P.S. I love Riggs soooo much and I miss her like crazy!!!! ;-)
