Let's be honest, you were the best deal going for a long time and then you weren't. The fact that someone can't be mature enough to be able to stand up and say, "this is important to me", to someone new in their world is beyond me. There is no retirement in a friendship I guess. No pat on the back. No gold watch. No good luck to ya'. Relationships change and grow or shrink over time. They have their own life cycle and I guess that the instant brick wall is one of those possibilities. It also has the same feeling as a life cut short. There was no fade to an end / changing gradually over time to the next faze. I do ramble.
Sometimes it feels so good to just get something off your chest. Especially to uninvolved, anonymous ears. I am the kind of person who also likes to just get things out there because it is like poison if I keep it all in. I think it is sad when friends are thrown over for "love," especially long-lived friendships.... it is like losing family and hard to grasp how it could just be over. And, honestly, it just doesn't make sense!
I hope the vent has helped make a things a little clearer. Thank god for blogs and bloggy friends. :)
Well thank you, my bloggy friends. It was quite a rant, wasn't it? :) Hopefully it's out of my system for awhile and Amy, yes, it does feel good to put it all out there sometimes!
