Anyone out there have those bad weeks where friends don't reply to your e-mails or keep in touch...?

Question

I am used to being respected by others. So, it really takes me off guard when my "friends" don't reply to my e-mails, and/or call like they swore they would. Do you ever have one of those weeks when you wonder if your friends dropped off the earth, or all of them got together and decided to disregard you? That hurts.
No, most of them do NOT know each other, and I have not done anything wrong toward any of them that I know of. Any encouragement / advice?
I guess they may have had a bad week (or 2), but still..they don't have to go out of their way to convince me that they will do whatever it is they end up NOT doing. What a waste of my time. That "ticks" me off.

Answer 1

I like you and all, but if you read all of your questions, you sound like you think you are a whole lot better than everyone else. I have bad weeks where I do not read email. I apologize to you and to those who sent me email for being so blatantly DISRESPECTFUL as you call it. i certainly should have been much more considerate of your feelings and put my life on hold to check my email.
Maybe your friends are tired of being slighted by you because they will never measure up to you. You are, of course, MUCH smarter than them (just a little smarter OFFENDED you).
Maybe if no one answers your email, you should step back and take a good look at yourself instead of finding fault with "ALL OF THEM."

Answer 2

Yes, I know what it feels like when it seems that eveyone I know has suddenly dropped off the face of the earth and it can be iritating, however it isn't something you should take personally. Everyone has their own lives to lead. Until you speak with them again, you don't know what's been going on in their lives. Simply put, things happen. Plans are made only to be broken for one reason or another and again, while I am sure it's bothersome, there's probably a good reason. Furthermore, it's not always about you either. You need to wait and see what the other side of the story is prior to getting so angry.

Answer 3

I go through it all the time. You just gotta think.........."what do they usually ask for that I cant offer them at this time or is there someone else that they are using"? It could be the boy/girlfriend trippin'. Not that long ago I did a "spring cleaning" on my so-called friendships I thought I had built and found that I was almost totally cleaned out,and it made me so mad ,I gave them a piece of my mind,cause friendship is a big responsibility. There's alot that goes with that.So to sum it up here's my theory: you need to pick friends that wont sleep with your man,lies to everyone,doesn't keep it real,who's mean, not trustworthy,has big mouth,snitches you off to anyone,tries to clown you in front of people to look good,so on and so on,you get the message! Go out and met some new potential friend.

Answer 5

yeah a lot of friends did this to me in school, but one day i just woke up realisin i didnt need them, theyre not friends, and i stuck by the couple of people that would never let me down. they dont like it if it works the other way round, a lot of friendships are one sided....
