Barbie is right, keep the friends who respond to you. I love this proverb "make new friends but keep the old, one is silver the other gold" If they are your true friends they would be emailing you, supporting you from a distance for your upcoming wedding - BTW what day? My wedding is June 3rd. I have just gone through all of this 2 times in the last 3 years - I had one friend who used me economically and transportation speaking until she got married - I was the maid-of-honour - to pay for the shower, drive her around (no DL) etc. Then she just stopped calling. So I stopped trying to keep in touch - not worth it!! Lately I became good friends with another girl I've known for 7 years or so. She said I was like a little sister to her, her only true best friend, etc. A month or so ago she, her husband and her son dropped out of my wedding party! The reason "you and Thomas just aren't the type of people we feel we should stand up for" Whatever she meant by that is still unknown to us! We are motorcycle riders (not "bikers") and they don't like it. So too bad!! It's my life not hers!!
So my advice to you, as I ramble on here, keep the friends who want to be your friends close to you and close to heart. The "opportunity" friends will call on you when they need you. And maybe by then you won't be feeling as hurt as you are right now, and you can be just as unfriendly back!
~~~~~~~~~ HUGS~~~~~~~~~~~ I'll be your e-friend! Heck, I'll be anybody's e-friend - I'm kinda lonely here too! I've got my fiance and family. That exhausts my list!
