How nice.

People who listen so easily to others. Who can't think for themselves. Who get 'life coaching' and just toss the ones they supposedly love aside. Wish I could care as little as those people. How nice it must feel to just walk away. To not follow through. To not stick it out. To not do what you promised. How nice for you.

Can you blame them? Unless you were married they don't owe you anything. The question is what did you do to get them to break a promise? If that was the case. Maybe examine your own actions. Or maybe you're one of those who will hold people hostage to what they say even if you yourself have made it intolerable for them to stick around. Sometimes we have good intentions, but some situations call for cutting losses over 'sticking it out'.

Sorry, if you said something and did not specify conditions like that you would have an irrevocable power of revocation, such is not customary at all. It's called "oathbreaking." For much of communal history, keeping promises was far more important than anything else, because if you broke promises nobody would trust you. Now you can churn through lots of people due to Urban Anonymity.

It's sad what Urbanization does to humans---it basically gives them the freedom to oppress their neighbors, to tell lies, etc.

If you want to be an oathbreaker, be an oathbreaker, but the idea that it's the other guy "holding you hostage" is silly---decent people don't approach every oath as breakable "if I feel like it." What you're saying is that if you feel like breaking an oath, and someone thinks you should be held to it, they're "holding you hostage." Grow up.

"If you did not specify conditions like that..."
That goes without saying. Pretty obvious I would think. And I myself wouldn't hold someone to a promise if I didn't give them all the facts to make a solid decision with. Plenty of people trust me, I can live without the trust of people I don't want in my life. Breaking promises all the time, to many people, makes one untrustworthy. But once because you're choosing self-preservation? No, that's called self-love.
