I've been put in this difficult situation that has so many ways of looking at it. I'm aggravated and mad about one point but then something positive pops into my mind. I finally made a pros and cons list. Those normally never work for me since I over-think every statement I add to it, but this one actually turned a light bulb on in my head.
So the list had to do if I should keep a friend around or not. First clue that I should was that I could start with the pros column and I added to that for a bit. Then I moved over to cons which surprisingly was a little more difficult even though I am beyond pissed at him. It seemed that every 'con' I typed out, I added 2 more pros. I stood back and asked myself..."are these 2 simple lists (that I put together in 5 minutes) telling me the answer I've been trying hard to desperately find in the past 3 days??" I continued to add to the list and again, 1 con= 2 pros. I think I have my answer but I don't know if I want to accept it quite yet. I get to thinking about the overall picture and adding the level of positivism and negativism. Is one of the cons so bad that it technically equals 2 or 3 of the smaller pros? There I go again with over-thinking it, but am I actually over-thinking correctly this time, if that is such a thing. There is still a tiny bit of doubt I have but I really am stumped on this one.
What do you think??
