Ever tried to be nice to someone who just isn’t having it? Well, Charlie Sheen’s character in Two and a Half Men has the perfect advice for that situation:
“Stop trying to be friends with Berta. It just pisses her off.”
Let’s be real—some people are just not interested in your attempts at friendship, no matter how much you try to make it work. And Berta? Well, she’s the queen of keeping it real. So when you keep trying to be nice and friendly, she’ll just roll her eyes and remind you, in the most savage way possible, that it’s not happening.
Charlie’s advice is both simple and spot on. Some people—no matter how hard you try—just don’t want to be friends. And you know what? That’s okay. If someone’s vibe isn’t vibing with yours, maybe it’s best to just leave it be.
Moral of the story?
You can’t win them all. Sometimes, trying too hard just makes things worse. It’s better to let go than to force something that’s just going to annoy everyone involved.
