I am responsible for being around people that hurt me.

Once they hurt me, if I can not accept that they are human, and faliable, and forgive them, perhaps change my behavior (use the ignore feature for example), then it's my responsibility to put myself somewhere else.

If people are hurting me all over the place, then the common denominator is ME.... not people.

You're not going to change people, Robby. You can either be right or be happy. Being happy means accepting the things you can't change and having the courage to change the things you can.

Can you change, Robby? You already know what current Robby ends up like... you're already there. If you want things to be different, YOU have to be different. We are all the common denominator in our own little hell of active addiction. Everywhere we go, there we are.

Things change when we change.
