How to avoid drama with Friends

"How to Avoid Drama with Friends   Being in fights with other people can cause unnecessary stress and aggravation in your life. Because who really wants to have to worry about other people being mad at them, and sometimes even talking behind their backs? Just follow these steps to avoid having drama in your life.   . Never talk badly about other people behind their backs, no matter what. It may be a fun thing to do at the time, because there's a whole other group of people doing it, but most of the time it comes back to haunt you. The person will find out and if it's a friend of yours, it can cause a fight.   . Occasionally when it's needed, try putting others before yourself. For example, if your friend is having troubles at home, and they need to get out of the house and just talk, maybe you can stop what you're doing (if you're doing something that isn't too important) and go help your friend. People will think of you as a better person, and won't really have a reason to be mad at you...   . Don't tell someone else's secrets! Of course your friend is going to find out, from another so called friend, and they are going to confront you about this, this can lead to a lot of things, like people turning against you, and your secrets being told.   . Stay out of other people's drama! There's no reason for you to get into the middle of someone else's fight. Let them work it out on their own. Because whenever people do this, even if it's just to help a friend, you usually get dragged into it and end up having people turned against you in one way or another (this doesn't apply to putting others before yourself, in some situations you really can't).   . If you fight fire with fire, you'll end up getting burned.   . Do not deny something when someone asks you "did you do this?", be truthful. Honesty is the first requirement in friendship, and if you don't have that in a friendship, you're not getting yourself into a good situation." whow   It's never too late to change one's perception. ‎ ‎

Saying a little "am sorry" can make that Relationship Work!

I Can't Say Sorry for Nothing... Son: Dad, I want to get married Dad: First, tell me you are sorry Son: For what? Dad: Say sorry Son: But for what? What did I do? Dad: Just say sorry Son: But...What have I done wrong? Dad: I said, say sorry Son: Why??? Dad: Say Sorry!! Son: Please... Just tell me why?! Dad: Say sorry... Son: OK Dad, I am sorry Dad: Uhun... you've just qualified for marriage. When you learn to say sorry for no reason at all, then you are ready to get married! I can never forget this, It was in Rev Omar Pela's church. He told a story of how on a particular morning, his wife stormed into the room with a moody look on her face.. Being a gentleman, he asked, sweetheart what's wrong? She said, nothing! (you know when a lady tells you...nothing. irk!). So he impressed further, You don't sound fine dear... She replied, I said I'm fine! He said at that moment he tried to replay in his head, if there was any misunderstanding previously... He couldn't remember any. So, not to cause any tension at home, he decided to continue his study in church office... As he picked the car keys to leave, the wife blurted.. So you are going to leave without showing concern or care. He said at that point he was angry and shouted... Did I not ask you? What else do you want me to do... So he slammed the door and left. On getting to the car downstairs about to start the car... The Holy spirit asked him, if someone passes by now and mistakenly hit his leg on a stone, what would you say? He replied, I will tell the person sorry. The Holy spirit asked again, did you cause the person to hit his leg on the stone? He said no! Then why would you say sorry for what you didn't cause?... He said instantly he got the message the Holy spirit was trying to pass across... that you don't have to be the cause to say sorry. So he got back upstairs, his wife looking at him angrily... Then he said, sweetheart I'm sorry... She just wrapped her arm around him and sobs. What a wonder! He said he was left speechless and wondering.. Dear friends, stop justifying yourself. Can you just tell him/her you are sorry even if it was your partner's fault? I am sorry can make that relationship work!
