Years ago, if a friend of mine was experiencing trouble at work or school or with their partner/other friends and asked me for advice or vented, I would very easily default to “quit!” or “drop out“ or “dump their ass you deserve better king/queen/my liege”
And as a result, no one improved, in fact we backslid into becoming reactive or destructive and eventually, bore no patience with one another because there was no good ground to stand on
Life has gotten better since I and others stopped abandoning ship at any sign of discomfort.
Don’t let your friends destroy their lives because you give them a stamp of approval!
