I really like the warm weather, but 27C is close to my limit as I don't cope well when it gets above 30C. Anyway, those snow photos are great I'd really like to be able to take some like that but we hardly ever get snow were I am and when we do it's only a few flakes that don't settle. Those night photos are amazing and you've even captured the stars as well which makes the photos even better. Don't fall into the trap of thinking you must have an expensive hi-tech camera to take great photos, the best camera in the world won't take good photos if the photographer doesn't have an eye for a good photo, and you most definitely have a good eye for a photo.

Yeah, it's really bad when you put yourself out to help and support someone and then find they just turn round and stab you in the back. Sadly there's a type of people around who go out looking for kind caring people that they can pretend to be friendly so that they can take advantage of them and then when they think they've got all they can off their victim they cut them off and sometimes even bad-mouth them.  I really hope that you will be able to sort out your various life issues and be able to enjoy life.

It's been snowing a little here in Chicago on and off for the past few days :v Tomorrow there is going to be 1-3 inches of snow according to the weather but you know how that goes.. 

I think it's better you cut *that* person off because they've never done a thing back for you. They only use you to dump all their problems on and then ask for money for whatever was going wrong this time. You're too nice and try to help friends out, but you don't always have to be the one. You should get the same back in return from someone if they are your friend. *That* person has never been there for you once, even to listen to you when you needed and that's not a friend. 

The moon pictures slay wth are you talking about? The snow pics too. The railroad track one is so good and so are the pond ones. 

Mentioned this on another thread but you don't have to worry about him. No one is putting up with his BS and lies about you. I for one am glad you finally removed him from your life. 

These snow photos are really amazing. You have a definite talent with photography and you take good shots all the time. Even these moon pictures are very good so don't think they aren't. I have yet to see you take a bad picture.

Thanks ~! I've really always wanted to get a good picture of the moon lol I think these are the best I've done so far but I've seen some really great photos and I've always thought I really want to take one like that lol also thanks, I'm working on that other issue I really just need to reevaluate who I help out.

Yeah it's always been that way and I know you have always said they aren't a good person but I like to assume the best of people I've let in my life as friends x.x

I'm glad because I felt like it was gonna be another situation where I'd lose friends over it. Also thanks ~ I like taking pictures so it's always nice to know others enjoyed them too

It has been hot here lately I'm not enjoying this either I rather there be snow on the ground. In regards to pictures these look great. You are too criticizing of yourself when you always do a good job with art whether GFX or photos. The other matters, well I believe it's good you finally moved away from speaking to him. 

I think I might attract the wrong kinds of people sometimes and I'm just too dumb to realize it

No you aren't dumb. You trust people to be as kind as you are and people take advantage of you. While I do think you should be more cautious at first with people and with who you trust I don't want you to ever lose the quality of believing people to be good and caring about people. The world needs more people like this especially in the state of things now.

There's nothing wrong with assuming the best but like Pessi said just be careful. Some people aren't all that great as I'm sure you know..

You should be but they should be returning the same energy. If they aren't going to do the same thing for you when the situation is reversed they aren't very good friends.

That's true I guess lol I don't really expect anything from my friends though I just like knowing that I can be there for them if they need me to be, which is all I was trying to do for him but looking back I guess he took advantage of that and I didn't realize it ._. Though in truth it may have been a little bit my own fault~

I get that for real but you also have to take into account when someone is blatantly using you and look at the situation from the POV of: would they do this for me if the situation was reversed? It isn't your fault you were every bit kind to him and helped him out of bad situations and he used that. Don't blame yourself because he's a POS

It's still a bit hard to not blame myself for it lol I never told him no or set any boundaries I just always gave him whatever he needed to fix whatever every single time so I feel like it's a little on me ~ I've always had a hard time saying no to people anyways and I need to work on that x.x

The fact that you're aware you need to work on it is the first step. You can be kind and helpful but in a way that doesn't allow people to take advantage of that kindness. Just find that balance.

You really do. What @Sasuke said is right just find a balance. If you tell someone no and they keep pushing that's a good sign they aren't a good friend too.

That's true lol I just get so overwhelmed sometimes at the thought of telling someone no x.x I dunno where that comes from lol

It can be very difficult to say No to someone, especially if you've become friends with them. But @Sarada is right, if they keep pushing they're not a real friend and are just out to make use of you.

Yeah he definitely wasn't a friend and I really need to learn to set up some boundaries with people.
