Pet Peeve of the Moment

Now, we all have friends that we've had for years. Some of us have had friends stick around for 15-20 years, or more. My best girl friend on this planet has been my besty for 27 years. Yes, 27 years. We met in kindergarten. We've also all had friends that came for a time period in your life, and then left for whatever reason. Not that they weren't good friends, just not meant to be lifelong ones. What ticks me off is when a friend that you've had for over 15 years just seems to have feel off the face of the planet. The last time you've spoken with them was November, despite the phone calls, texts, or wall posts on facebook. The most you get back is a comment on the wallpost. Bah, whatever. You can't tell me that your life is so busy that you can't be bothered to drop an email or a message on facebook. It's like when their life is good, you don't hear from them, but when their life is going down the proverbial crapper, or there is some serious family drama, they are calling you up looking for support and backup. Well, you know what? I'm tired of being the 'backup friend'. If you don't have time for me, well by George, I'm not going to make time for you when you need it? Sound fair? If it doesn't, maybe you are one of those friends.
