Stick to your LANE

So I had a revelation, well an epiphany if u will. Ok fine it was just a thought which I thought I could term with a fancy word. Anywho, back to my epiphany, ever noticed how some people sometimes demand more attention than they actually deserve from u, how some think they deserve ur time of day when really u don't even know where they come from. Ever noticed how some people suddenly want to feel important in ur life. Ever noticed how some people mistake ur friendship closeness & suddenly assume they're high up in ur hierarchy of friendship list & hence assume they r entitled to certain privileges which u probably would only afford ur truly closer friends and/or family????

Ever noticed how some people in ur circles want their opinion about u to matter in ur everyday dealings even when u don't recognize the existence of their voice or even the existence of their mere existence. 

You see I'm the type of person who avoids confrontation at all costs, I dislike confrontation, I dislike noise, I dislike having my time wasted discussing rot with someone I feel I wdn't want to give my time of day to, my best response to something that wd in my view result in confrontation is normally silence. I always feel if u know me well enough, u shd know that my silence to ur snide comment or behaviour shd tell u that sth is not right if I wd've otherwise responded, & when I really dislike what u say, for instance in my social media space, I will simply delete ur comment/response & maintain my silence, that is just me, & it suits me just fine. Oh & if u irritate me in my whatsapp space, I simply block u, I won't even tell u that u're irritating me, I will just block u, same goes for facebook, I repeat, I don't like unnecessary bickering. 

Bottom line what I'm trying to say is, Dude, please stay in ur LANE, don't go overstepping boundaries, don't misinterpret our knowing each other or ocassionally saying hello to one another as a friendship. If we r NOT close friends, feel free not to impose ur opinions or thoughts on my otherwise happy life. Feel free not to share ur negativity on me, feel free not to share ur unfunny jokes with me, they may sound funny to ur closer friends, that is fine, they are ur friends, I am NOT, so don't share the joke with me. Let's maintain our boundaries. In siSwati there is a phrase used for this kind of behaviour "KUJWAYELANA KABI", let's refrain from doing that.
