You have been cut out...

There are many people who come in and out of our lives. Everyone plays a role of some sort on our lives when they are in and leave something behind when they are out. The role, or what is left behind, might have extreme influence on us or be nothing more then something we think about from time to time. Sometimes there comes a time when you need to cut people out of your life. This isn't a vindicive cut out just a time that you no longer have a need to be in their life or them in yours. This "cut out" involves steps. You start by taking them off of your aim. Not blocking them, just taking the name off so you can't see them. You want to keep the option there for awhile so that if THEY should want to contact YOU they can. When they don't contact you in whatever time line you have set then the phone is next. There is no need to have a number in your phone of some one you do not talk to. When was the last time you talked to them? The drunk message you left on their phone two months prior does not count so today is the day.....hit the delete button. You still have their facebook friendship so you are able to see things are going well for them. You check out the pictures from time to time when there has been an update but that is about it. You know it is time to make this final step of making them be just a memory. You just need a couple more days. This is final. The last form of communication you would have a chance at is this and it is a big step to eliminate that step. Then you realize that they took that step first. They no longer have their facebook account. Even though you knew it was time you wanted to be the one to hit the button "remove friend" What if it was too soon? What if I think of something tomorrow I want to tell them? A story I remember? The kicker is, that I will not come up with that said story or memory. I just wanted to be the one to make that final step. Now it is as though they cut me out....I don't like to be cut out.....even if I was going to cut them out any way.
