Saw this coming ...

Today, one of my girlfriends had a breakdown of sorts. This being with some friends that we were all close to ... at one time not too long ago. 

I don't know how to word this delicately, but I saw it coming. 

It's hard to think that some people who have become so close to you in the past few years would just slowly fall by the waste-side, or kick you to the curb like yesterdays news without giving you a heads up of sorts. 

This girlfriend was pretty much blindsided this past weekend, and I can't help but know what she's feeling. I've also been dropped from this group of friends, but I don't think it's for the same reason. For me, I think it stems back to the fact that I maintain good friendships with certain people that this couple doesn't like. If you ask me, that's just being stupid and childish, but this couple seems to think they're the Duke and Dutchess of Wales to all their friends. I mean, come on. There's only so much a person can take until your ego blows up so big, and then you pretty much want nothing to do with them anymore.

That's the case for me. It's sad,  really. I thought these people were my friends. As did my girlfriend who got so frustrated with them today, that she created some drama which resulted in her deleting anyone having to do with this group from her social networks. But, that's not the worst of it. The chick that she reached out to basically told her that her friendship wasn't worth it, and that there was nothing left to say. Ouch. Talk about time wasted investing in a friendship you thought was genuine. Not to mention the cold-heartedness of her message. My girlfriend sent me a copy of what was said, and I felt so bad. 

I talked to her later, and she says she's letting it go. But, I know it's still stewing in her mind and bothering her to no end. I feel bad, but what can you do? You can't make people like you. Especially if you don't know what happened to just make them stop talking to you. 

While all of this was going on this afternoon, I contemplated sending a message to the same chick. But, what was I gonna say? Why'd you guys stop inviting me to events? How lame does that sound? I kind of already know anyway, and I really don't care to associate myself with those kind of people. If you can't accept someone for who they are, no matter what, then it's not worth it to me. 

Sad to say, but I think I'm done with those people. At least for now ... until I have to be around them again. The ones I really like all moved away. 

Time to leave the office. Night, readers.
