That more than sucks

By Tall and Weird · Dec 1, 2009 · ·
  1. I have decided to cut off contact with one of my real-life friends. Or I should say 'friends' rather than friends because of the reasons that pretty much made my decision for me.

    This friend, sorry 'friend', has made being her friend an almost impossible task. She makes me feel like a whiny bitch everytime I call her to try and organise spending any time together. She calls me melodramic whenever I complain about the state of our 'friendship'. She forgot my birthday... again. She cancelled the last two times we were supposed to watch some DVDs together for no reason she was willing to share. She doesn't seem to understand how selfish she truly is. She is selfish to the point of cruelty. She is automatically closed to a hell of a lot of topics of conversation.

    I doubt losing my friendship will affect her very much because she has made it plain that it means less than nothing to her which really sucks because I am so angry at her that I want her to feel regret or loss or anything but I really doubt she'll even notice I'm gone.

    And so... I'm done.

    I learned a long while ago that no matter who the person is they will inevitably disappoint you. Sadly humans are not perfect and others suffer for that, though our imperfections make us who we are. With that inability to reach absolute perfection we are tasked with constantly trying to evolve so that we may one day come closer to it.

    You are imperfect for not allowing your friend to be as she chooses and she is imperfect for not validating your feelings. The best way to proceed? Well, that's up to you. Either way, I hope everything works out for you. Oh yeah, sorry about all the psychological mumbo jumbo. I just read a Jung book.

    I so understand, I just had the same thing happen to me. I had tried and tried again to make it work and finally we were doing a project together and I went home and she changed it and then posted it online and then let me know when she told everybody else. So I got irritated and then she basically let me know she has hated me forever and that was the end of that. I don't really care any more. I am sorry about your friendship :( those kinds of people really don't deserve to live.

    Oh, gosh, I'm sorry about that TW. I know exactly how you feel (see my pathetic piece on my blog). What hurts is when you put time/effort into a friendship, but it's not reciprocated. You keep hoping it will be, but it never is. Finally you just have to force yourself to walk away and stop hoping for something that will never be.
