That old saying

There is an adage that I have heard my entire life that generally speaking, the more you know about a person, the less you will like them. It’s a pretty sad statement about human beings but I have found repeatedly throughout my life that more often than not, it’s true. The people that are the exception to that rule are the ones you should hold onto and nurture relationships with. The ones where too much information makes it clear they are not the person you thought they were should be left in the rear view mirror destined to wander through life wondering why things are what they are.

I have spent a lot of time, energy, emotion, effort, and money on people that ultimately fell into this adage over my lifetime. Despite this I have this flaw where I still want to believe that people are honest with good intentions. Maybe someday, I will learn.
