    I think you’re on to something, but just to be sure, could you say it again without trying to sound like a wizard?

      If you value some relationship (for whatever reason, be it work, family or communal), you only need to put up with difficult people as much as the valued relationship requires you to.

      As in, there’s no “objective” amount of how much you need to put up with difficult people. It’s defined by people you already have around you. If people around you demand that you have to spend time and energy on a difficult person way more than you want, it’s on you to figure out if those people are worth it.
