Like, that's the thing.

You are literally choosing another person over your own happiness and contentment for reasons that make no sense.

It's not going to be a friendship ender.

And if it is, that person's the wrong friend anyway, right?

That person is not your friend if this is going to ruin your friendship because you won't do what they want you to do.

That's a problem.

It is a real problem.

And it suggests that your friend's not interested in you being happy at all, right?

Well, here's what I, you asked the question, why do we do that?

I think we're just used to it.

I think so too.

I think it's something that's been ingrained in us.

And it's the same thing with taking a compliment.

I wrote a whole chapter about that because you sit with people and it's everywhere.

I don't care who you are, what level of life you're at.

You can be in fifth grade.

Somebody will say to you like, oh my God, that was so smart of you to say, or, oh my God, you accomplished something and that was so great.

Or I love your outfit.

And people continuously say things like, oh no, no, I just, I just got this like someplace on sale.

Or they're like, oh, no, no, no, no, no.
