C'est la vie.

Yeah, it hurts but in most cases I feel better off without the ones that bring me down or for whatever reason do know want my friendship. <BR/>And yes, I remember LadyStarfish.

I'm sure she will understand. ;)<BR/><BR/>As far as Lady Starfish (and yes, I remember her! 10 points for me!), proceed with caution. I would ask her why she dissed you for so long. Make sure her answer is honest. Busy is not an honest answer. And if she doesnt pick up her phone on Monday, then I would end the friendship immediately. You think life is too short to hang out with boring people, I think it is too short to hang out with jerks.<BR/><BR/>Miss you, friend!Meghan (The Declaration of MY Independence)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08437426078664351801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879154.post-72959257682150500172008-10-30T00:50:00.000-04:002008-10-30T00:50:00.000-04:00I agree..it IS hard.I just got totally dumped by a...I agree..it IS hard.<BR/><BR/>I just got totally dumped by a friend and it hurts, but like you I've accepted that she'll never return my calls, and she'll never give me a wedding present or even send an email to say, "Congrats on getting married" (even though I spent over $1,000 on her wedding and was her maid of honor).<BR/><BR/>As for the other friend, I agree that you shouldn't feel guilted into being her friend.

That’s how it works - you can’t have more than one significant other. With friends you can, so if you are ending it is just seems, well, meaner and more personal (whether you are the one ending it or if someone ends it with you). Friendships between women are so intimate, and I guess that’s why it hurts. All in all, any relationship is about chemistry, and if it is not there, it just isn't.columbiacitygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12593251869047179712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879154.post-2646190507064575742008-10-29T15:59:00.000-04:002008-10-29T15:59:00.000-04:00You are right, much harder to get out of a friends...You are right, much harder to get out of a friendship than a relationship. I think that with this graduation party, you should be flaky and avoid answering. I dunno, seems like she would "get it" at some point that you don't really want to hang out with her. But maybe you just need to be direct with her since avoiding her hasn't done any good.<BR/><BR/>That's good about your friend getting back in touch but also good to figure out where you stand so you don't get hurt by the situation again if she starts flaking out again.Fluffycathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05428451230435663963noreply@blogger.com
