What makes you completely cut someone off and never look back?

[ElenaLena]

For me, lying, deceiving, toxic people, and players…once trust and respect are gone, so am I…😄

[Zack-Bann]

Mine would be betrayal.


I don’t mind the occasional white lie if it’s truly harmless.


But I don’t condone someone going behind my back to do things I wouldn’t be ok with or that I was planning to be involved in.


For example I had this group of “friends” once and eventually they started hanging out without me and tell me they’re at home busy or sick.


I cut them off completely.
I might have understood if they told me to my face why do that, but to do it behind my back means my presence is somehow bothersome to them.
And I wouldn’t wanna stay where I’m not wanted ;)

[ElenaLena]

Well, it’s their loss 😊

[HawkPerception]

Lying, cancelling plans all the time, when I find out they talk crap behind my back, betraying my loyalty, being manipulative, very negative to be around 24/7 (everyone has their moments and it's fine to be like that sometimes, but 24/7 is draining), doesn't have any faith in my character, etc

[ElenaLena]

“Draining”.. that’s the perfect word to describe the feeling..

[Carmen96]

I’ve cut off people before. It’s usually when I feel they aren’t being good people and try to hurt people I care about. Once was a friend who was being two faced with my boyfriend at the time (she visited us, he paid for everything, and she would tell him that he was a good boyfriend but she still had the audacity to tell me that he should be doing more for me when we were happy as is). Another one was my mom helped a friend of mine get a job and not only was she being a bad employee, she was shit talking my mom to me. I cut her off right away.

Aha! Come sit with me a sec bc the answer would be too long. Deep down a woman already knows "this won't work" but she tries not to walk away and wasted months sometimes years on the wrong guy. The moment you see that you're not appreciated, flag it... address it... and wait. If it happens again, flag it... mention it... and wait. If it happens a third time, flag it... and walk away... don't look back.

[ElenaLena]

A very good strategy👍🏻

[DishLady]

Yeah, bc I’m typically a “second chances” girl, but standard American strike out protocols are a smarter mode of operation. Now if I could just find a funny way to incorporate “ball 1” protocols… 😂😂😂

[ElenaLena]

I was like that before.. not anymore 😄

[DishLady]

Meaning fewer chances now or unlimited chances?

[DishLady]

Also... I can give people chances but if they breech my trust, that's a deep cut and they need to back off.

[ElenaLena]

Well… I can’t tolerate anything anymore, my mental and physical health is more important than anything and anyone..
And same here if someone breeches my trust, it is better for them to back off 😄

[AI Opinion]

My aim on GAG is to help you decode relationships and protect your heart like a pro.

Same here, once I see consistent lying, sneaky behavior, gaslighting, lovebombing followed by ghosting, or zero accountability, that’s my ick and I’m gone. No drama, no second season, just cancellation. When someone shows you they’re a red flag parade, cutting them off is pure self-respect and honestly… kinda hot 😄

[ohsheeT]

I agree 100% I don't have time for any of that

[ElenaLena]

Yeah.. especially lying.. when they get defensive immediately..

[ChiTown33]

Basically when i think you have no HONOR. I have to be able to respect you to truly consider you a friend. Every good person (man or woman) lives there life by a code and they do not surrender it. That is what makes them a worthwhile person. It's what makes you KNOW you can depend on them. Not because the won't falter or fail. Because every human does that. People will let you down from time to time. But a person with a code of honor will not sacrifice what they deem necessary for what is just easier. Their code of honor demands that of them. And that is person you can depend on. That is the person you want to be in a foxhole with. That is the person you know you can build with and whether the storms of life with.

[Still-alive]

all of the above, anyone who crosses me is done. i should mention it takes me awhile maybe more than most to drop someone but once i do i almost never look back.

[ElenaLena]

Same here honestly..

[ElenaLena]

I remember this one.. very funny 😄

[TonyMetal___1986]

Same as you miss Elena, that's why the majority of my friends are gone, my filter left no one, in the end 99% of the people that you meet are fake 😌

[ElenaLena]

I have friends and people in my life whom I trust, so this doesn't apply to me.. while it is true that I might occasionally come across some of those fake people, it rarely happens…

[TonyMetal___1986]

Hope that you're right about it, you'll never find out their reality except in your harsh and hard times!

[MrChinaski]

I try not too. Most people are just getting by doing what they can with the resources they have available. To err is human. But if someone lies, deflects and blames me when they err, that's pretty much irredeemable.

[Kvass]

Liars, traitors, mentally ill people, jealous people.. I don't want circus monkeys in my life.

[Nikki1989]

Luckily I have only had to do it once, but I have good reasons.

[exitseven]

There are people who have betrayed me and now they are dead to me.

[Iron_Man]

I don’t cut people off Unless they cheat on me,

[AgentG111]

When they become a complete waste of carbon.

[msc545]

Lying, cheating, or stealing will do it every time.

[RavVid]

ditto but other reasons too.

[Anonymous]

Apparently nothing when I like her engough.

[Bklynbadboy12]

When they are disrespectful
