Wishing for a BFF...sigh

I don't know about anyone else here, but I am having a moment of revelation. I do not have a Best Friend anymore, and haven't in a long while. Don't know if it is diagnosis related or if I have only myself to blame. LOL.
However, I think WITH DX now, it's tougher. I'm busy with the Center, and my family and it seems as if people all SAY they get it, but then they really DON'T.
I think you guys are really my most reliable and best friends. I can write any hour, tell you anything, and count on you to reply, understand or flat out tell me I'm being ridiculous. That is true friendship.
Wish you all lived in my neighborhood...

  hi im new to this website and i had been really interested in learning about life with a disabilty. Your post caught my attention because i have gone through the hard truth that if your "friends" find out something maybe uncomfortable or different about you they will stop talking you and begin to avoid you. It really sucks but life goes on and you end up meeting someone else that is totally awesome! I just wanted to extend my hand and let you know that if there is anyway i can help, just let me know! I am really interested in getting to know you and if you give me the opportunity to even become your friend! Hope you are doing better and have an excellent day!

  i kno how you feel girl. i had a bf and i just recently called her and told her that i had to go through surgery for a cancer spot that was found on a very private area and you would think after being friends for fifteen years she would have called me back a few days later and asked how i was doing or when my surgery was or whatever but she hasn't called me yet. she has a new baby coming from some guy she slept with who is now back in his home town of jamaica and now she seems to think she is on top of the world having her 3rd child with no man in her life all her kids have different fathers and i was there for her through all of her children except well this one she's still pregnant and it hurts that i think back to all the things that i have done for her and her children that their own fathers didn't do and she hasnt' even paid me a simple phone call to see how im doing... i have now realized that my only best friend forever is GOD ... and in my eyes he is all i need..
