How to Give Negative Feedback Without Offending Someone You Care About At Work

[@GinaHoffman-er6cw]

I have a friend I've helped for 35 years. Hauling her around in my car. Taking her to the store and other errands. Both her and her boyfriend don't drive. I've helped them both for 35 years. This last year she has changed. She doesn't respect my boundaries at all. Last year I sat her down and told her I had some health problems. I told her I couldn't be there as much for her. I only have myself. She had a live in boyfriend of 35 years I told her to go to him sometimes. She had a fit. Last Saturday she wanted me to take her to the store. I came down with covid for the first time on Friday. I told her I could not help her Saturday morning I was having sever health issues and was not feeling well to take her. She had a fit and said if you can't help me were not friends anymore. What the heck. I was sicker than a dog with covid and a temperature of 101. She didn't understand I was so sick and that I didn't want to get others sick. She has owed me money for 3 years . I've asked her for it she said no way since your not Taking me to the store Saturday. I recently put out the last 150.00 on my car to be fixed. I needed the monet she owed me three years. She brought her boyfriend into this. It was between me and her. He has been nasty to me for years now. He has health problems but he has been verbally nasty to me for no reason. She never once stuck up for me. I have stuck up for her years now. She never once stuck up for me. You completely disrespect my boundaries. I've had to sit her down 7 times to tell her. I respect her boundaries. She started started a disturbance in my.apartment and I told her to quiet down she would not. I heard it from my manager and had 4 noise complaints about her. I cant risk my housing for her. This friend and her boyfriend use people and manipulate people constantly. They don't pay there friends back what the owe them either. Where do you find good friends I have no idea. I terminated this friendship it is toxic and I'm tired of being used. Gina H. Thousand oaks

Have you ever found yourself feeling a bit awkward to give a negative feedback?

I agree with Sneata. 16 minutes is long for 3 items. I will make the listener get bored. 6-9 minutes is good for 3 items. Thanks.

So it's like giving a hot message to a snowflake. Chill the message first. Give the message to the snowflake. Chill again.
