Change Sucks

It is funny to me the varying degrees of friendship. The things you will let someone get away with. The things that annoy and bother you to your core but you chalk it up to them just being them and you allow yourself to over look it. You convince yourself that the person is worth it. That they mean enough to you and you mean enough to them to overlook the bad and only accept and acknowledge the good. But if you really look deeper, how many other people in your life would you let get away with such actions?
To have someone in your life that you allow to walk all over you is exhausting. To allow them to treat you in a way that you would never talk to someone else for even thinking. To be the doormat. It hurts. Especially when you know better. You hear the logical advice and know the right thing to do... yet you stay. You stay because you are sad. You stay because you are lonely. You tell yourself you are making a difference. You tell yourself you are doing the right thing. You tell yourself a number of lies in order to not thing about it. To not feel the pain. To not have to change. Change sucks.
But what do you do when you no longer have an option? When the situation itself changes and you are forced to either change with it or walk away for good. What do you do when life doesn't let you decide. Do you hold on for dear life hoping this too shall pass or do you let go and see what life has planned?? What do you do??
