Butt The Idea, Not The Person

Let me ask you some questions:

A friend introduces you to apply for a vacancy in his company and you did. After the job interview, you concluded that the company isn't that great. The management is lousy. The salary is lower than your expectation and there are other bad points. Would you ignore your friend because of this?

Here's another scenario. A good friend of yours just watched an exciting movie. He shares with you about the movie and encourages you to go catch it. Being a nice fellow, you go catch the movie and the conclusion is.... The movie sucks! Ok, would you blame your friend for the poor recommendation and threaten to end the friendship? Would you ignore him in the future?

If you answer YES to the above questions, it shows that you are totally immature, irresponsible and misjudging.

Your friend has no ill intention towards you. You know he wouldn't harm you. All he ever did was to share with you an opportunity which he believed was good.

My recent encounter with a friend ended in such plight. It's a big dissapointment that he reacted in such manner. If he really treat me as a friend, he wouldn't have behaved so.

At any point in time, the people whom you know will share with you opportunities, ideas, thoughts, advice and etc. If you dislike what you see or hear, then you should voice your opinion rather than choose to ignore the person - what you reject is the idea and not the person. You have to be clear about this.
