isn't it funny

Hmm, I think I know what you mean.

I've got hardly any friends, the ones I do have are just as mad as me.
 
I get down occasionally because I havn't got LOADS of friends. I see people at work who all hang around together and are very cliquey and feel a bit lonely sometimes - but then I come to realise that my OH and the few proper friends I have are worth way more than a vast group of shallow people who say they are friends but gossip behind each pthers backs and oust people periodically because they seem to like the drama.

I'm sorry your "friend/s" have disappointed you :hug:
 
I'll be your friend Mynxie :hug:
(whether you are crazy or not :D)

It's more that people say that they care and give a damn, but the thing that distroys my life is far too taboo for them to talk about... :thumbsdown: so then, they're really not friends at all, are they? :shrug:

Just so-called freinds and family who say they give a damn, but what distroys my life and the lives of thousands of others - and their loved ones, is far too taboo for them to talk about - despite them saying they care, they're always there and so forth. Sod em.
 
Thanks for the PM Nat :thumbs:
Did you post that openly anywhere around here?
Do you think that it might be a good idea, if it wasn't?
And again "nearer" the "date" so people don't forget ?
The more the merrier as the say :thumbs:
 
Sorta, vaguely in the fundraiser thread but I've already asked the mods if I can do a thread nearer the time. x It's not a fundraiser though, it's an awareness raiser, don't want money, just people to talk.

:thumbs:
I can talk :D (but you knew that didn't you? lol)
 
:hug: Don't let it get you down Nat.

I think there are different categories of friend.

There are a few (literally a handful of people) who you can call "real" friends They'll always be there for you and you can talk to them about anything.
Then there are those who'll be true friends for a while, who you can talk to about most things, but you'll eventually drift out of one another's social circles or grow apart.
Unfortunately most of the others that we call friends are rarely more than acquaintances.

If that's what it's about, try not to be too hard on them.
It's human nature to feel uncomfortable about things that make people different - and you're right, true friendship should overcome it, but it's harder for some people than others.
And yes I know, you shouldn't have to be the one making allowances for their discomfort all the time either.

You're right - and the poem about friendship being a reason, season or lifetime is pretty much spot on.

Sad though.
