I dont think there is like ONE, definite cut-off for ALL cases..
I know there are things i would forgive n accept from some people- that in others would be enough to get them blacklisted....

All depends...

Although- being taken for granted, or just treated shabbily is a step toward being cut off....

And i know for me- if u were good enough for me to want to date u- in any serious way- theres gotta be something worth keeping u around fro, even after the hot romantic stuff is over...
Plus.. u start to run out of people to have a decent history with after awhile if u just ship them off.....

Hey all, please forgive the diatribe to follow...
This thread got me thinking about my past connections
where I was cut out or made the cut consciously...
As well as all those times we drift apart unintentionally.
In that light, this is as much a reminder for me
as something I care to share...
Perspective is an easy thing to lose.

<diatribe>

I kinda assume all friendships are relationships,
but with virtual connections called friends
that are often really acquaintances...
friendship and relationships are somehow viewed as different.

When we layer multiple layers of connection
(mental/physical/emotional/social)
things can get murky...

If they really were a friend to begin with,
you'll likely return to some place of familiarity
when the sting goes away of separating.
...Unless things got ugly.

Then it takes time, maturity, and forgiveness
a dash of growth and development from both parties
You may never be close again, and that's OK.
Sometimes it's better that way for both parties and they know it...
other times it's instantly better for one party
and understood to be for the better in hindsight for the other.

I guess my point is that I don't know
that you can really ever be rid of someone
until their story lives only in the mind of those who knew them,
photos and videos and stories around campfires.

Unless it's drastic/violent/evil that causes the split,
to cut someone intentionally out of your life
is really a head game between you and yourself.

If you do so capriciously, you may be surprised later
when (not if) you cross paths again
how they developed, grew, and found their path.

You might find yourself on, a vacation,
or even be applying for a job when you see them again...

What kind of greeting would you like?
Plant those seeds consciously before you pick up camp and move along...
When you find yourselves together again
is the harvest of those seeds of the past.

It's a really small world if you ever leave your house,
and we Sagi are known to wander...

Hope there's value in that rant for you too
