nope loyalty and duty obligate the improving one to maintain strong relationships with their people burning bridges is assinine

When you finally start to improve yourself you’re going to make the people around you deeply uncomfortable. Because up to this point you’ve had an unspoken agreement to be losers together. You start winning? “Hey man that wasn’t part of our deal?” You become a mirror. A mirror that people don’t like looking in. Because it reflects their choices back at them in opposition to yours. You’re gonna have to go it alone. None of those people from the past are coming with. Not a single one.

Trust me man. Loyalty used to be my strongest virtue. I didn’t want these relationships to end. I didn’t burn these bridges. They did.

one doesn't owe loyalty to anyone as if it is a debt that can be paid off. loyalty and duty stem not from the quality of the other person but from their nature actions based in loyalty and duty must be consistent with the nature of the relationship, not your feelings. you have a deeply embedded sense of entitlement bro. killing it will kill your self, that is, i think you're too old to change. you can't even evaluate yourself from a 3rd or 4th party perspective.
