[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought Mel Robbin’s “Let Them” had a good take on this.  Most likely, if people are excluding you it’s because it’s logistically easier for them to make plans together for some reason.  Either they live closer together or they have something in their schedule where they regularly bump into each other.  It almost certainly isn’t personal.  Most friendships are just based on seeing people a lot.  I fell out of years long friendships when my kids started driving and I no longer needed to communicate with people regularly to arrange carpools.  It sounds stupid, but when you carpool, you know when someone is sick or needs surgery or goes on vacation or has a death in the family.  And when we weren’t hauling each other’s kids around, we stopped communicating like that.  It wasn’t anything personal.  It was just that it required more effort, and we tried for a bit, but eventually we all stopped putting it in.

Mel Robbins is a complete idiot. For the life of me I don't know why people are so obsessed with this "let them" nonsense. It's insipid.[/quote]
