Ever been used by a friend?

I just realized that my best friend doesn't care about anybody but himself. Damnit, today sucked.

Yup. Always sucks to figure out that your "friendship" with someone is going one-way.

For me, I just cut all contact and move on.

Break into his house and cover the walls with poo or have a cheap hooker give him herpes.

 

[dirtboy]

Most people only care about themselves.

 

[SynthDude2001]

Yup, at least twice before. I'd like to think now I'm less trusting of people so it won't happen again. 😛

Get a pet.

i feel your pain.
cutting him out is the best thing to do, but it's hard for sure.

I agree that's what I do... it's not worth trying to fix things or whatever... plenty of other decent people to meet.

So many times over the course of my life that I've lost count.It's part of the price you pay to be a trusting, nice person.It hurts at first when you realise that you've been used but you've got to understand that the real loser here is your former friend, not you.Besides,what other alternative do we have aside from becoming a paranoid,non-trusting, uncaring person? Living fully requires risk.

 

[sygyzy]

Yeah, the ones that call or IM you for help with (insert thing you are knowledgeable about here) after months of not hearing from them.

I've been the used and the user...that's what friends are for.

 

[Brutuskend]

I'm with Geekbabe on this one.


Lots.
But IMO it's better to trust everyone and get burned a few times, than to not trust ANYONE!
