Good men uplift and honor good women. Weak men don't because that's the only way they can feel strong.

yeah but here's the problem:

Romans 3:10-12

King James Version

10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

ok, so, let's just nuke the whole thing then shall we?

i think i already did that.

using the bible to troll people with out of context and non sequitur is literally discussed in the bible, quite famously, it would be sad to be such a person who doesn't realise this is about them, no, of course not, it's about how superior they are

what part of it hurts so bad?

was just trying to take the edge off -

"real men blah blah blah..."

i mean come on now.... am i to believe that the guy who posted that is living up to his own standard and that its all as reductionist as that?

come on now Queenie.... there is still a good man out there for ya....

sorry let me correct that: dont worry, there is still a decent enough man out there for ya Queenie... but you are gonna have to set aside your desire for worship and the bitterness that has manifest along with it...

maybe try understanding the mans plight in the current age rather than pretending its 1983 and "i'm with stupid" or whatever this vibe is.

3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law speaketh, it speaketh to them that are in the law: that every mouth may be stopped and all the world may be made subject to God.

3:20 Because by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified before him. For by the law is the knowledge of sin.

3:21 But now, without the law, the justice of God is made manifest, being witnessed by the law and the prophets.

3:22 Even the justice of God, by faith of Jesus Christ, unto all, and upon all them that believe in him: for there is no distinction.

3:23 For all have sinned and do need the glory of God.

3:24 Being justified freely by his grace, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

You said 'good women'.

I don't associate with bad men or women.

How do you avoid them in the workplace?

I don't avoid bad people in the workplace. I act like an adult and deal with them as appropriately as I can. That rarely involves bringing in a third party. I give people small tests that tell me whether they will accept my personality or not. If they fail, I keep our interactions brief and focused only on what's relevant to our work. If they pass, I slowly open up more and test until I know the limit of our relationship. This can be exhausting in large numbers, but I've mostly worked on smaller teams. To be clear, not everyone I limit my interactions with are bad people. They're just inconsistent with my personality. I've actually met very few people I consider bad at their core. And bad is a loose term that I'm in no mood to explore here. Everyone will have an opinion on it. Values are key to measuring people for yourself.

I get what your saying but the "I don't associate" seems like hardly ever a possible solution in the workplace. You're strategy seems pretty solid. That said, I think I ran into situations that would've gone beyond this scope/goal.

I'm not a guru. I don't have all the answers. I just deal with stuff as it comes up like anyone else. I think you're confusing association with interaction. Association to me means to build a relationship beyond what is strictly necessary. I have to interact with people I don't like all the time. That doesn't mean I am powerless. I can have boundaries and limits. At times that has meant leaving a company. You can't avoid that without being the only human on the planet. Even then I'll eventually piss myself off 😂

To be more clear, I may interact with thieves when they rob me, but that doesn't mean I associate with thieves.

Yup, thanks. You definitely refined your explanation. I understand better what you were trying to tell me.

I could write a book on this topic I'm sure. Lol It's hard to type on a phone in depth explanations like this. I appreciate the opportunity to clarify and think deeper on it.

Admittedly, my freedom in this regard has improved with age, technology, and wealth. I can limit interactions I don't like more than ever before. That privilege isn't lost on me. Just do the best you can with what you have.

I just don't honor or uplift people unless I believe they are overall good people. I simply don't associate with them otherwise. Life is far more peaceful and safe that way. I wanted to make that distinction, because some men and women think it's their duty to remain loyal to bad, toxic, or incompatible people. It isn't. Disassociation is the proper response in those cases. You should never try to hurt others though. Uplift or leave. That's how I TRY to live. I have failed at times but learn and grow.

yes~!

this is the way
