Ugh

Why is it that I have to be the bigger person? I don't give you back handed compliments. I try to always be positive with you. I don't rain on your parade. I purposely don't engage you in topics I know will cause an argument. I've forgiven bad behavior. I've let go of hurt feelings. I have overlooked selfish attitudes and rude comments. A thousand forced smiles... a hundred and one bitten tongues.
...And yet,  I am the one who should be the bigger person. The one who should make more allowances for your poor behavior...
...and you wonder why I simply no longer care to engage.
