If they’re willing to hear you out and work with you to achieve a balance that satisfies everyone, they’re worth keeping around if not, your situationship is worth reconsidering.

Scandal is abundant and people are quick to move onto the next one.įocus on the good in your situation. Your emotional health is vital for your family in the long run, even if the way you went about that stings in the short term. “Selfish behavior” is not so easily defined when you consider how much your happiness and outlook affects those whom you love and support.
