Re: stories of fair weather frriends?
I wasted about 3 years with fair-weather friends, people I thought I could count on and were friends with but after a long time I realized they were just time-pass with me....Now there are only VERY few people that I consider good friends, and I'm happy with that. I have people at school that I'm friendly with, but not quite friends , just acquaintances...
It is possible to have many acquaintances, you don't have to give your heart and soul to every single person you coem across. For me, real, deep, meaningful relationships come after years. It's only recently that I"ve begun to realize who my true freinds were/are...
Relationships/friendships only work uot when it's mutual..when they're giving you teh same amount you're giving them. In my experience I felt I was always doing more, sharing more personal things, than I ever recieved on their end....that's when it hurts and its time to cut ties wiht those people...

It's not selfishness when it's mutual..when you both know you're on teh same level..it's only selfish if you're giving and they're taking and you think its a friendshp and they KNOW it's not but they still keep leading u on...
Re: stories of fair weather frriends?
^ mrs. Saieen,
true enough.
there is this friendship that does not give up and will not ever give up.
and then there is the friendly user friendship that fills up itself and then suddenly dissociates without any justified reasons to own self, even.
that is self deception. and besides the hurt caused to the friend who is conveniently made a sahara, for time being, in the long run it will hurt the user.
that is what is even sadder. if only people learnt from their mistaken ideas and projections onto others, who mean well for them.
but..
