[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 718231, member: 13542"] My take on it Nomad, based of course on my own experience, (so please take it or leave it)........ is that I've found over the years that as I heal/grow/evolve, quite a few relationships don't grow along with me. After some soul searching, I let them go. Simply put, energetically the connection no longer works, we are not on the same wave length anymore. What was once, perhaps, enjoyable and connected, is now unenjoyable and disconnected. I once read in a spiritual book something which stuck with me, it basically said that as we grow, we must "continuously weed our spiritual garden." That simplified it for me. What does this connection offer you? Jealously to me is toxic. Perhaps a bit of envy is typical, but when it evolves to jealousy and it becomes so obvious, it is destructive. I would distance myself from that energy. Recently, I made a commitment to myself to be more kind and compassion to myself, it was a big deal to me .....as I began viewing all of my connections through that lens, it became apparent where I wanted to be and where I didn't. I see this kind of thing as a life lesson where I choose what I want around me......Interestingly, as I have let go of quite a few former friends.....new friends have entered my life who fit the "new me" and offer that kindness and compassion. It's been a real blessing too. These folks in your life sound more like distant acquaintances rather than true friends. [/QUOTE]
