There is one question you must ask about every person in your life, no matter how long you’ve known them: Does he or she ever make deposits into my life, or do they only make withdrawals? If the answer is “withdrawals,” then that’s someone you need to distance yourself from immediately. Remember, no one only makes one withdrawal. Would you only go to an ATM that kept spittin’ out free money just the once? Hell no. You would go every single day until the bank figured it out. Well, people are the same way. Until you shut them down, they will keep taking and taking until there’s nothing left.
