Except for the fact that they're NOT there.

FS, sorry, but sometimes you just gotta tell it like it is without whitewashing it.

“When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.” ― Henri J.M. Nouwen

One thing about friendship is that i have NEVER in my life ASKED a friend of mine not to talk to another person NOR would i even allow my DH to tell me who i could or could not speak too. NO so called friend would try to control another friend in that manner. And, I get it that some of my friends might not be your friends and vice versa, so what? That to me really takes the cake. So, if the price of YOUR friendship is to tell me who i may or may not speak too, then sorry, that price is simply too high. My own DH wouldn't even do that to me.

Some people are misguided and believe that to be loyalty.

Well, that's true! We are supposed to outgrow certain behaviors but some never do. And . . . isn't being a friend accepting someone for who they are?
Don't get me wrong, I have ended some friendships because the friendship turned somewhat toxic for me and I found myself not being true to who I am.

Sadly some of my cyber friends didn't accept me for who I was. I've come a mile away from their trash but I was accused of doing things that I now see happening so was I only a replacement?

Who knows? They have run away to so many boards, who can keep track? Maybe we could do it like Norad for Santa? lol ;D
Karma for Fuzzy! lol how true. Seemingly it's those friends that are not satisfied.

“Even chance meetings are the result of karma… Things in life are fated by our previous lives. That even in the smallest events there’s no such thing as coincidence.

“We often forget our human connectedness. Throughout my life, I have felt the greatest beauty lies in this connection. It has been in the deepest connections with others that I have experienced the greatest degree of learning, healing and transformation. This connection is a powerful thing, with the ability to transform lives, and ultimately transform human experience.” - Kristi Bowman
