Very true,time to leave fake friends behind and focus on the friendships that lift you up rather than bring you down 🙂 http://ciaratoneweb.wordpress.com/
And then there’s yet another side to this, as I learned during my terrible years post-accident: Everybody is dealing with something. some trouble of their own.
They may not tell you (some friends didn’t know how bad my injuries were until my book was published – I didn’t tell them), but they may be suffering too.
Almost every time I judge someone, I later discover that they were dealing with their own catastrophes, often trying to manage them privately. So I try to not judge, but to reach out instead to people I care about and who have cared about me in the past.
Sooner or later, one discovers who values your friendship and who doesn’t, and you can govern the relationship accordingly.
Had my shares of shadows near me and some of them ascribed to being friends. When my partner passed away 2 of them said if you are selling anything let me know and I will give you such and such for the antique bookcases etc. It didn’t stop there they wanted plants from the garden as well………VULTURES
It was. They were using me and me being emotionally down as well. I was resentful and basically never called them etc to where the friendship dissipated. I still see them at get together of mutual friends and it is always don’t be a stranger. I have forgiven them and am willing to walk my journey without them
Thanks ! I have another blog in addition to this one and can’t combine them. ( i should have ). But one is on a condition I have and this one I try to keep upbeat😀! I’ll follow you in the other as well. I enjoy your posts!
True friends are the stars.

Sadly, this is so true. We just have to learn to figure out who is who.
