Jey told me today that I am an "adapter." I didn't know exactly what he meant by that, so after his explanation, I realized that yes...I am an adapter. He says that I adapt well to other people, even if they don't necessarily choose to adapt to my circumstances. Needless to say, I am a push-over....I adapt extremely well in my friendships for fear that they could end if I didn't, but usually in the end I'm the one who has changed my plans and way of doing things to accommodate them.
I need to let go of people that are not adapters in the relationships that I have and it's a constant one-way street. I have realized that a true friendship and relationship takes two adapters, not just the one that constantly is giving to make the friendship work. It's a give and give type of thing, right?!

That is right Bex....and its a hard lesson to learn - sometimes being a push-over is easier then sticking up for yourself, but once you finally do, it feels so good.
