I am so over one-sided friendships IRL where I am the only one making the effort. My new motto:
‘You shouldn’t always be available for someone who doesn’t even ask how you are doing.’ Their loss. :-/

I am DONE reaching out to those who can’t find the time to reciprocate.

Life is so much better without them.

All our friends are Dead, the rest are just acquaintances, can’t really call them friends. Do have two guardian Angels though, our next door neighbours. They can’t do enough for us, they do all our weekly shopping for us, nothing seems too much trouble. I don’t think friends would do what they do, not since we have became housebound with this Virus Pandemic anyway. Just saying.

To be,or not to be, that is the question.

I had one friend for over 40 years, we finally got to see each other again after 25 years when I moved back her 7 years ago. Sadly she passed away suddenly in January. Other than my other best friend who I chat with daily via messenger (she's in New Jersey) that's about it for close friends. I do have a bunch of cyber friends that to me are as good as real life friends.

I can't say that I have any BFFs but I do have some people that I do things with on occasion. I've always been pretty much a loner but enjoy company when I want it. hahahaha

justbec, sorry for the loss of your friend.

Heck even before we worked we both worked at the same company for 35 years (while married). He's my best friend and hangout pal.
