Why do I always seem to find myself with friends who so badly and so consistently let me down? I'd quite like to kill someone right now, but hopefully I can wait until the anger subsides to make way for the crippling depression.

hey dude
i know how it feels, talk to me.
but not now i'm going to see yeasayer. come to the arts club on saturday, i'll buy you a hite.
take care xx
but i said we will meet at 9
:(
I love you
/\ this
"Quite now"?
For fuck's sake. Fucking cunt.
I can totally sympathise with you
I am currently grappling with the depression so I'm afraid I have no good advice for you. I hope things get better for you.
flakey friends.
are shit shit shit.
My gf moved back to New Zealand last month
I've had one (1) Facebook message in the past 5 weeks. I know it's the other side of the world and all, but we did say we'd try to stay in touch.
[/emo rant]
({)
eeek!
girlfriend or ex? if you're staying together that's horrid.
Oh, Christ, ex
But we knew it was coming so it made the (admittedly very upsetting) breakup clean and mutual. But we were still pretty close and when she got on the plane we basically said we'd try to keep in regular contact, and can you please send me an e-mail when you land so I know you're alright? Oh, and your address so I know where to send any letters. I got a short "don't worry, I'm fine, hope you're well" last weekend. That's it.
Eh, I shouldn't be unloading this on an internet forum, but it's been frustrating, y'know?
i can imagine!
it's pretty thoughtless of her. stuff like this i find is easier if you just kind of talk to each other every now and again. comfort blanket and all that. how are you feeling about it all? apart from frustrated?
Just frustrated really
I get the impression she's trying to cut most her past year living over here out of her mind to make adjusting easier - which I can totally understand. But when all I asked her for is her address, which would take literally 10 seconds to type in, it's hard not to take that personally.
I thought letters would be a good way to stay in touch too. They're infrequent, but personal, and maintain about the right level of contact you should have not to let it weigh down your mind.
I've hijacked this thread haven't I? Apologies.
want a sympathy fuck?
Learn how to reply?
(yn)
ha
I don't know
sometimes you need to cut people out of your life because you connect them with a time you weren't happy with, rather than it being the person themselves
I think just leave her be and if she comes back to the uk get in contact but otherwise...
That's basically what I've settled on
I sent her one last FB message a couple of days ago saying that pretty much - if you ever want to get in touch I'm always up for that, but it seems your head's in a different place at the moment.
Proslo
Do you like 'The Gift' by Velvet Underground?
Heh
S'alright. Ain't no Sister Ray though...
Spurs are losing
Taarabt!
1 centre back!
Fucking hell
We are surely, *surely* better than PSV Eindhoven. This is bollocks.
i feel for you man.
i'm unfortunately going through a bit of a downer concerning my friends, or at least a few of my friends. who all of a sudden have turned into irresponsible fuckwits. i'm starting to think that they aren't really my friends at all or if i have any friends period. that maybe all i have are close-knit acquiscentences.and that's not a good conclusion to come to.
I have a really close friend
And recently she's really turned the cold shoulder on me. I'm very upset. We have a long, convoluted and complex history but I thought we were beyond it all and we could just be good friends. But she's really distant, and I'm upset :(
This exact thing happened to me last year.
He had been my best friend all through school, we even went out for a few months, it got pretty serious and the splitting up was messy, but we got over it and had been brilliant friends again for years.
All of a sudden he starts doing medicine at Glasgow uni and turns into this utter snob who doesn't need 'arty types' and 'mentally unstable friends' in his life anymore (his words). :(
Are all human beings exactly the same?
I'm yet to find a friend who I can be sure won't let me down at the last minute!
In fact, that's not true.. I found the most perfect friend ever and she moved far away.
:(
dont get mad!
get even!

I'm still fucking seething
about 30 hours later. I had to overdose on sleeping pills last night just to get to sleep. I genuinely don't know how I can cope with this anger much longer. I'm in physical pain from being so tense. I don't know what to do.
