Only a couple and the one who I thought I could trust the most..has bailed on me for the 3 time in are friendship befor when she got with her ex for 2yrs..then when she stole from me that was a 1yr and now her new bf..She said not even a week ago im there for u call me..so I did shes always to busy to talk..when i ask her to call me back nothing when my msg her..nothing..I am starting to think maybe she was never a real freind to being with..I mean I knew here since I was 7 best friends since i was 13 or 14..everyone says she has always been like this..(other friends) I think there right..

I dont get people either meme, so no you are not alone in this one

Ive lost more friends than enough throughout the years but still am so lucky to have hung to a very understanding and patient few

Id prefer to have only a couple of true friends than 100 acquaintances who only chat about me behind my back anyway

small town mentality and all that jazz

I'm with you SN ... but this is what I like so much about this place too. There are so many of us, and I genuinly like the overwhelming majority! If you could only ask my family how rare it is for me to like someone. RL friends I have only one ... my wife.

No, you are not alone.

I really only have 1 or 2 people I would call friends and that changes for some reason. Exploring that right now in therapy.

I think when she stole from me, I would have got the message. Friends dont do that, friends dont abandon for self purpose. Why make yourself miserable trying to be her friend when she treats you like that? I would wait and see if she contacts you but dont pursue it. Sorry this is happening, I know how aweful it is to loose someone you trusted and felt were a close friend. I have been there but know when to cut your emotional losses or it just makes you feel worse. Hugs

I only have one friend that I talk to on a daily basis other then my family. Of course I have those people who want to be my friends and attempt to but I just push them away cuz I dont want to deal with them cuz they annoy me. My family is basically the only ones i'll have anything to do with other then the friend I talk to regularly. And even with her, she moved away to another city so I feel that talking to her is useless sometimes cuz I never get to see her and it hurts to know that
