:-( Forgotten And Replaced! :-)

Athazagoraphobia, the fear of being forgotten or ignored or replaced by someone when you strongly care about. It is one of the most common phobias which people of all ages struggle with in their own ways. In our day to day lives we often feel rejected and replaced. Our pain of being left for someone else steadily results in dejection and we find it dissatisfying to make friends with people we find it hard to relate to. On this journey of life in spite of tend to find ourselves a solitary loner we must decide at this very minute to never again beg anyone for the love, respect, and attention we deserve because sometimes no matter how much we do, we can mean almost nothing to someone who means so much to us. It’s not pride- it’s self respect. We must always remember this undeniable fact of life, “when we are unwanted and unworthy to one person, we are priceless to another”.
Some people are so magnificent that they replace another, but they can never replace the everlasting spark of affection, care, and understanding. They can seize our place in someone’s life but can never endow with the same place we used to possess because feelings are interchangeable, but memories are not. Always remember no one can ever replace us; nobody’s ever going to erase us.

We often experience in a group of friends or a single friendship, when someone else come along the other person go crazy over the newcomer and start leaving us out of everything. Before we know it, we have been replaced. The biggest lock (disappointments) in our lives are often the result of our misplaced notions and expectations, which can only be unlocked with the key of communication.The moment we feel rejected we must avoid getting angry and envious and try to deduce the right reason by confronting our friend. If we tell how this has made us feel, they may realize.
Even though after so much of exertion if they don’t realize our worth, we should simply stop wasting our time in associating with them. Things work themselves out. It’s just a matter of time and a way of life – when someone steps into a new place, willingly or unwillingly they have to replace someone from that irreplaceable place.

We should never give part-time people full-time position in our lives. Know our own value and what we have to offer, and never settle for anything less than what we deserve. When someone treats us like we are just one of many options, help them narrow their choice by removing ourselves from the equation. Let them miss us. When we’re always available they take us for granted because they think we will always stay no matter what. ~Sneha Singh
