Friends

[happyroo_bunji]

For months it has bugged me that I seem to be the one that phones my friends for chat, they never contact me.  I'm the one that will go and visit them, yet they they never invite for a coffee.  I send a message through Facebook or send a text and they never reply.

Do you think I have right to be annoyed?

[grandmoon]

Yes be annoyed

I felt the same way with some of my friends so I stopped phoning them.  After some time I started to get calls from them to make sure that I was still alive.

I think that is a fact of life, some do, some don't. I have a very good friend who usually phones me first... every time.... but in my defence, I hate talking on the phone.

It never used to bother me, if I heard that they were sick or in hospital (always heard third party) I'd phone or visit them.  I'd listen to thier troubles, but never once have they done the same.

I'm very tired today, so maybe I'm just extra sensitive

Are they genuine friends ? I know that even a long term friend can dump you.

I thought they were, but since mid last year I've been thinking they aren't

go around tellin' your friends in front of a crowd  that they're 'wrong' aye

blunt, rude, no flamin' wonder if they've got a problem, aye

Every so often I go through that with friends and think well I phone the last two times

 so now it's their turn.  Natural to be annoyed, friendship should be a two way thing, 

but it's not always easy.

yeh, i was the same and my hubby always used to say to me that friends are more trouble then they are worth.

I now agree with him
