“Healthy people understand that others have the capacity to choose to end relationships and it serves as motivation for them to learn to relate in healthy and loving ways. However, when we are driven by shame, we don't just fear losing a relationship, but we live in terror that if we let anyone really get to know us, we would never be desired, pursued, or loved. In us, that fear can be worked out in the development of unhealthy denial, workaholism, perfectionism, chameleon-type behavior, and sadly, even revictimization... When we live in denial or present a false self out of fear... we will do anything to be accepted by people... When we begin to tell the truth about what happened to us we also begin the process of turning about from this type of idolatry... When we begin to tear away our layers of illegitimate shame... When our own vision is not distorted by our shame we can discern what was our responsibility and what wasn't.”

“Strive to build friendships that don’t consist of competition, comparison, jealousy, or DRAMA. Make friends that bring out the best in you, celebrate you, and that genuinely like, love, and respect you. Build friendships with people who are positive, encouraging, caring, honest, trustworthy, and dependable. Authentic friendships are priceless! Stop wasting your time entertaining and pursuing fake so-called friends. Don’t fool yourself; jealousy and friendship do NOT mix.”
