Best Friends …

loyalty and being open minded enough to accept your differences Cordy :D

I hope you haven’t been hurt too much. Sometimes its through getting hurt that we learn, it was for me :wink:

Best friends are there for each other
its about trust, respect, honesty, accepting them for who they are faults and all ,

we have worn each others ears out moaning to each other on the phone
and worn our fingers out in msn together
but i guess what im getting at is we are still friends after all this time at that what friendship is about

sounds like u had a bad day hun ill give ya a ring later if u want :lol:

Hi Cordy, I think you got it right in saying that it’s 50/50, give and take, but there are some who just want to take and take and whatever the other persons feeling are, they don’t come into it.

My so called ‘best freind’ split up with her husband last year, April, I knew they were having problems but didn’t know he was going till she turned up here one Saturday morning saying he’s gone!, my reaction to be honest was, who’s gone! and she explained. As her freind I supported her, as mates do. There were several times I got out of bed at 2 in the morning to go and pacify her when she was upset. In a way, iv’e lived to regret it, after 8 months apart she decided to take him back, which is fine, but what’s not is the way iv’e been treated ever since, something of a leper. He doesn’t speak to me, which in itself doesn’t bother me, we never really were good freinds more civil to one another because she’s my freind. But……..it seems he blames me for everything, it’s all my fault etc etc., Thats a typical Sam tho. Her daughter and son in law flatly refuse to have anything to do with him, this wasn’t the first time and I doubt it’ll be the last. Wev’e all at one time or another, picked her up from the beatings he’s given her and put her back on her feet. I’m not sure what happened this time, but it was a bit like the straw that broke the camels back I spose. I still see her daughter, see her quite often, and the children.

Since he came back, which was shortly after last christmas, iv’e heard from her 4 times, twice to borrow something, once to tell me about a Likisma party (Aromatherapy) and then this week to tell me about an Ann Summers party on Friday evening and did I want to go. I said no, i’m going out anyway, but the whole point being that I felt like saying to her, why is it that I only hear from you these days when you either want something, or it’s something thats going to cost me money! I didn’t tho, just said no, I was going out, so she’s all huffy with me now.

It’s no good saying that I don’t feel upset about it cos I do, wev’e been freinds for over 40 years and it’s very sad that he’s finally come between us. I saw her just over a week ago in Iceland, shopping, we tried to speak for a while but he said c’mon we got to go, looked right through me, like I wasn’t there, and like a little lap dog, off she trotted, said i’ll ring you soon, we’ll go out one night, said yea ok.

Makes me sound like i’m envious or something doesn’t it, but i’m not, i’m just a bit dissapointed
