Friends or just temporary friends?

Some people are...well not funny.. Im starting to get real fed up with a few of my friends IRL..

Somehow if one of my male friends meet someone...their all of a sudden not allowed to have any contact with me...At first i laughed at it, but now it´s annoying..
Im tired to be the one they call when it´s doesn´t work out with their girlfriends..Im not a threat for anyone.. So i really dont understand the behaviour..

I have a female friend who is exactly the same... she meet someone..they move toghether... get married... After the marriage she totally forgot about her friends.. When she´s in a divorce she calls and cry her heart out... She´s dont that a couple of times and nor of us old friends can be of any threat there... Whats is she scared of?? That we´re gonna hit on her husband? geez...

In the middle of the night a male friend called me...I haven´t been talking to him for over a year coz he wasn´t allowed to speak with me.. but now... I told him to get some new friends coz im tired of this silly behaviour..

Im so tired of being a friend on some of my freinds condition... Not all my friends are anything like that.. but a few...

So for all those who stay in touch with their friends NO MATTER WHAT.... That´s true friendship hug

I felt compelled to break up with a friend of mine. I have known her since we were 13, but from the time she got married (when she was 21) the friendship felt very one sided. You know, you always have to be the one to call and make plans, then they break the plans multiple times before finally deigning to spend time with you. It took me over 30 years, but I finally told her that it was clear that her family was all the friendship she had time for and it was time for me to call it quits. She never made an effort beyond apologizing to mend fences so it must have been a good call on my part.

I'm sure, like you, you wish nothing but the best for friends and ex friends, but a friendship must be reciprocal or it starts to feel icky.handshake
True.. and always been there for those who does this as well.. I just had enough of it.. I know it´s gonna be the same way next time they meet someone... But still..dont get it... I kept my friends no matter what.. And the one i was seeing had to accept that.. Never been any difficulties with that..

I used to cop that all the time Ina... mainly because I was the only one in my circle who never got married and had kids.

Every time a "friend" had a blue with the wife or needed an excuse to get out, I was the the one they came running to. As a result, I became a tad unpopular with most of their spouses who seemed to assume I was leading their hubbies astray. In actual fact, I was just being used.

And off course when things were patched up in their relationships my phone hardly rang.

Come to think of it..... I'm still waiting for one of them to return a tent he borrowed off me 25 years ago.roll eyes
I agree with many of the posters; some of us get taken advantage of and sometimes we have to say enough.

Friendship has to be equal and when it isn't it's just not healthy.

You don't have to respond. When someone calls you that only calls when they need you, ignore them. Then weeks later give them an email saying you hope all is well.

Make people respect you or you will be a victim.
A true and sincere friend will never cast you aside no matter what.... if they do, then they were never your friends in the first place! Never forget your friends who are always there for you.
Relationships come and go, but true friends stay forever!
I agree that family becomes a priority, but I wasn't talking about needing this friend to make me a priority. It was more like getting together every 3-6 months for dinner (initiated by me) and her canceling at least twice to take care of mundane things for inlaws and others whom she claimed to have no great love for. It was just apparent that I was setting myself up for disappointment over and over. I decided not to do that anymore.

Now, if she called, in real trouble or if her husband died or something, I would be there in a heartbeat. I still love her, she is just not available for a friend relationship and I am unwilling to do that which does not bring me joy.
