Dead Relationships

Friends gone south

Some people have already kicked me out of their life simply because they have no use for me anymore, particularly because I am not as privileged as they are. 

One "friend" whom I thought would be an enduring one kicked me out because her second husband wants her to. Well, that's what her mom told me, but I don't buy it. She has her own mind. And if she's really a friend, the least she could have done was to talk to me straight about it and not treat me coldly.  Sadly, she was one of my few college friends. And I believe I've lost her forever.

There were also other college friends who just stopped talking to me years back. I have ideas why - but I'd never be able to confirm them. These are people who have already forgotten whatever good deed I've done for them. Not that I'm asking something tangible in return. No. Friendship - the real kind - has no price tag nor has it an expiration date. Unfortunately, it wasn't the case for me and these female and male "friends" I had during my university years.
