Don't you just get sick of it? Or is it just me? People up sticks and leave as soon as they see you differently to how they are used to. I have (or should I say HAD) friends who only saw me when up and the life and soul, as soon as they see the other side..where'd they go? But it works the other way too, people who know me to be a misery guts, as soon as they see me hyper they run a mile and I never see them again. It is so frustrating. I've even had it on here which amazes me. Maybe it is just me and people can't stand to be around me for any length of time anyway. I'm so sick of scaring people away.
Anyone else?

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
and yes.
i hate that.
Yep, some people leave our lives, I've been on both sides of that one.
Cheers to you.
someone else on here told me he didn't want to be around me if i was down but he sure expect me to be there for him and i usually was.
In, out, repeat.
It's not you..it IS just them..We've all experience this.
I like you up or down or horizontal or twisted..I know that doesn't help a lot in RL interaction..but I'm here.
My sister understands, but still has nothing to do with me, like she is ashamed to have me around. Only a few real true friends have stuck with me through the years.
"...Everybody wants to slap your back
wants to shake your hand
when you're up on top of that mountain
But let one of those rocks give way then you slide back down look up
and see who's around then
This ain't where the road comes to an end
This ain't where the bandwagon stops
This is just one of those times when
A lot of folks jump off
You find out who your friends are
Somebody's gonna drop everything
Run out and crank up their car
Hit the gas, get there fast
Never stop to think 'what's in it for me?' or 'it's way too far'
They just show on up with their big old heart
You find out who your friends are..."

I do not keep up with friends as I should though when I'm down, either. But I'd never delete anyone!
BTW, you are totally unscary to me :-)
